Take Two have set a solid release date for the highly anticipated Bioshock 2 of February 9 next year. The game is coming out on PC, Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 and has been developed in a rare collaborative effort between main developers 2K Marin, and their partners 2K Australia, 2K China and Digital Extremes.
Here is a brief excerpt that sets the stage for Bioshock 2 in case you've been living under a rock (on the bottom of the sea):
"Set approximately 10 years after the events of the original BioShock, the halls of Rapture once again echo with sins of the past. Along the Atlantic coastline, a monster has been snatching little girls and bringing them back to the undersea city of Rapture. Players step into the boots of the most iconic denizen of Rapture, the Big Daddy, as they travel through the decrepit and beautiful fallen city, chasing an unseen foe in search of answers and their own survival."
