BioShock Infinite DLC, Season Pass announced

by Steve Watts, Feb 21, 2013 7:30am PST

BioShock Infinite will get at least three add-on packs post-launch, and a Season Pass to snag each of the announced packs on the cheap. The packs promise new stories, characters, abilities, and weapons as you explore Columbia.

The Season Pass will be available alongside the launch of the game for $19.99, granting you three for the price of two. Irrational didn't detail the content of the add-ons, but did say that it just began work on them after the game went gold earlier in the week.

The Season Pass will also include the "Early Bird Special" pack with a variety of boosts: a Machine Gun Damage Upgrade, a Pistol Damage Upgrade, a gold skin for both, and five Infusion bottles to increase health, shield durability, or ability to use Vigors.

      I have faith in Ken Levine to put out another good Bioshock. Just shouldn't be that they're milking his reputation to do stuff like this.
