You’ll frequently find yourself coaxed from one area to another, and while there are items to find and audio logs to locate, there’s never the sense of freedom that featured in Infinite’s campaign. It’s so well realised that we’d have loved to spend the entire running time exploring the city, but unfortunately there’s actually very little to do in it. Big Daddies can be seen busying themselves drilling holes for construction as sea life drifts lazily by – it really is a sight to behold.
#BIOSHOCK INFINITE SEASON PASS 4 REVIEW FULL#
Shops are full of browsing customers, the benches are filled with couples, and friends gaze out of the huge glass walls into the briny deep. Much like when you first walk the streets of Columbia, this functioning version of the submerged settlement is completely populated. Leaving Booker’s office, you’ll be presented with a sight that you’ll have never seen before: a bustling Rapture. As far as our protagonist is concerned, this is just a stranger that’s piqued his interest, and while that works conveniently for the purpose of this standalone adventure, the result is that you’ll be left in the dark as to the specifics of these new versions of previously familiar characters – which can be a little confusing initially. Tiptoeing lightly around spoiler territory, and in the simplest of terms, this Booker and Elizabeth have never met one another. Seemingly familiar with the child, the gumshoe agrees to assist her. Opening the door, heroine Elizabeth makes her way in, outlining her desire to acquire the services of the private detective to track down a little girl. But does Burial at Sea - Episode One improve upon the studio's slightly disappointing arena-based expansion, or is it dead in the water too?īearing a remarkable likeness to the opening of the core campaign, the content begins with a snoozing star Booker DeWitt stirring in his office to the sound of knocking. Trading the open air of Columbia for the giant aquarium that is Rapture, Irrational Games’ first helping of story-based BioShock Infinite DLC deployed this week.
