Curiously, with BioShock Infinite, 1440p is the standard for both machines. So, for BioShock and BioShock 2, PlayStation 4 Pro renders at 1440p, while Xbox One X targets full 2160p - 4K. This results in implementations for the enhanced consoles that directly relate to the engine used. BioShock and its sequel operate on a customised rendition of Unreal Engine 2.5, while Infinite leverages an enhanced UE3. With BioShock: The Collection, we're effectively looking at three separate games running on two different engines. There are some improvements, resolution is boosted, but bearing in mind the vintage of the original games, we did expect to see a better turn-out. Wesley is the UK News Editor for IGN.BioShock: The Collection returns! There's a Switch port on sale now (we'll have coverage on this soon) but meanwhile, the existing console releases have been updated to natively support PlayStation 4 Pro and Xbox One X, with the promise of support for both consoles' 4K output modes. And here's the full Summer of Gaming schedule. Here's everything Microsoft announced during its Xbox Games Showcase. There is of course a new BioShock game in development from 2K's Cloud Chamber Studios, although it has yet to be revealed. These features are also in-keeping with the types of games inXile has made in the past, including Wasteland 3, Torment: Tides of Numenera, and The Bard's Tale 4.Ĭlockwork Revolution is due out “in due time”. These features are points of difference between Clockwork Revolution and BioShock Infinite, the latter of which is less a role-playing game, more a linear, story-based first-person shooter adventure that features lite-RPG elements. Important to know that Clockwork Revolution is a true RPG with all of the stats, crunchy details and deep reactivity that we’re known for.- Brian Fargo June 11, 2023 Players will be able to fully customize their own main character in the game.”Ĭharacter customisation was one feature highlighted by inXile boss Brian Fargo in a series of tweets that stressed the RPG-ness of Clockwork Revolution.įargo called Clockwork Revolution a “deep RPG” with “full character creation”, a “branching dialogue system”, “awesome” steampunk weapons and “dark humour”. In response, a Microsoft spokesperson told IGN: The similarity with BioShock Infinite has become the top talking point for Clockwork Revolution in the wake of its reveal at the Xbox Games Showcase. “By traveling back to key moments, your interactions and choices will have a butterfly effect on the deep, narrative-driven world and characters of Avalon, causing them to change and react in unprecedented ways.” “After stumbling across an incredible invention that allows you to travel into the past, you discover the city you call home - the vibrant steam-powered metropolis of Avalon - has been carefully crafted through the alteration of historical events,” reads the description. YcrGXUZFfa- Butmac June 11, 2023Ĭlockwork Revolution is described as a “time-bending steampunk first-person RPG”. The Daisy Fitzroy character replete with scarf really cracked me up. The shots show similar perspectives of statues, sky rails, characters, enemies, and posters. While both games share a similar steampunk aesthetic, Twitter user Butmac, who claims to have worked on BioShock Infinite trailers (IGN has asked for comment) hammered home the point in a series of posts that included side-by-side images lifted from both games.
