Posted by Russ Looney

BioShock Infinite Mac

Love some BioShock? Then get ready for the next installment on the Mac! Today Aspyr Media announced that the upcoming BioShock Infinite will be available on the Mac this summer!

Here’s a brief description of the game:

Indebted to the wrong people, with his life on the line, veteran of the U.S. Cavalry and now hired gun, Booker DeWitt has only one opportunity to wipe his slate clean. He must rescue Elizabeth, a mysterious girl imprisoned since childhood and locked up in the flying city of Columbia. Forced to trust one another, Booker and Elizabeth form a powerful bond during their daring escape. Together, they learn to harness an expanding arsenal of weapons and abilities, as they fight on zeppelins in the clouds, along high-speed Sky-Lines, and down in the streets of Columbia, all while surviving the threats of the air-city and uncovering its dark secret.

Aspyr will be releasing additional details about the game, including a specific release date and pre-order information, as they get closer to launch. (more…)
