Irrational Games has announced that Bioshock Infinite will arrive for purchase in America on October 16th, 2012. The rest of the world gets their hands on it three days later, the 19th.

Producer Ken Levine had this to say "After Bioshock, we had a vision for a follow up that dwarfed the original in scope and ambition...Bioshock Infinite has been our sole focus for the last four years, and we can't wait for fans to get their hands on it."

I thought the original Bioshock was amazing (would you kindly?!) and the follow up wasn't too bad either - and with a whole new ideology to contend with (some kind of variation of socialism / communism), it's sure to give the Bioshock franchise some new room to breathe!
You may have already heard that buyers of the Play Station version of the game will get a free copy of the original Bioshock game which is a bit nice eh?
