BioShock™ 2 Classic is included with your BioShock™ 2 Remastered purchase
Minerva's Den Remastered DLC is included in BioShock™ 2 Remastered



BioShock 2 provides players with the perfect blend of explosive first-person shooter combat and compelling award-winning storytelling. 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.

Features:

  • High Resolution Textures, Models and Interface Art
  • 4K Resolution Support
  • The Protector Trials
    • You receive the call: Tenenbaum desperately needs you to steal as much ADAM as possible, to help thwart Sofia Lamb's insane plan. Enter the Protector Trials: frantic combat challenges designed to push your mastery of weapons and Plasmids to the limit. The goal in each Trial is simple: get your Little Sister to an ADAM-rich corpse and keep her safe while she gathers precious ADAM. Opposition mounts as your Little Sister nears her goal -- will you survive the onslaught?

      Each Trial features three unique weapon and Plasmid load-outs, keeping the challenge fresh, as well as a fourth bonus load-out the player receives when all previous load-outs are completed.


BioShock 2: Minerva's Den Remastered
Minerva's Den offers a brand-new, self-contained BioShock story, presenting a side of Rapture you've never seen before. Seek out the tools you'll need to unlock new goals and spaces in the order you choose. Face Rapture's full range of opposition as you increase in power---a new challenge is always right around the corner.

Expand your combat abilities with the experimental Ion Laser and chaotic Gravity Well Plasmid, unique to Minerva's Den. Face off against the new Lancer Big Daddy, the most advanced Protector that Rapture ever produced. Explore every shadowy corner of Minerva's Den, unraveling the mysterious past of The Thinker's inventor, and the dark secrets hidden within the unfeeling, omniscient machine he created.

Very continuist? Nice!

Bioshock 2 is more of the same as its first delivery, although with a very interesting new story and with small changes in the gameplay that make it more varied and fun. If you already liked Bioshock 1 a lot, this will not disappoint you at all. We put ourselves in the skin of "Subject Delta", known as the first Big Daddie of Rapture. This time we have a simple mission: to save a girl who recognizes us as our father, while we try to find out what is happening in Raputre. Keeping in mind that all this is a prequel to the first game. The gameplay and the objectives are identical to Bioshock 1 but with slight improvements. We have to collect ADAM from the Little Sisters and finish with the Big Daddies that protect them. But this time, once we have them, we will have to protect them while collecting ADAM from the corpses. Something similar to what was done by the end of the first Bioshock, only that here the bodies will be distributed in different areas of the levels. This I loved because it gives a more strategic and defensive Bioshock because we must learn to set traps and take better advantage of the environment. Not only you have to kill enemies, but also protect the Little Sisters and there will be a moment that if we do not have the terrain full of turrets, bots and cyclone traps, it will be impossible for us to survive and we will have to start collecting ADAM with less resources. Playing on hard difficulty is a satisfying challenge. I love it. Beyond this, we have the same Rapture with new enemies, new weapons, new plasmids and a new drill that we will have to recharge with fuel to use it, which makes it more limited, but also more powerful. As I said before, who liked the first part, I recommend it 100%. Very good game and very good singleplayer shooter with lots of action, exploration and fun in all aspects. Thank you for reading my review and sorry for my bad English.

Amazing story

Game chrashed few times at specific locations, considering chrashes, I am giving this game 5/5 because of amazing story. Base game felt incomplete because I didnt know what complete story of specific character, but after completing Minervas Den its amazing.

Constant crashing (BioShock 2 original)

It's understandable when a game this old will crash on modern software and hardware but to the point where once I get 10 hours into the game and all it does is crash every 10 minutes without any reason is annoying. I avoided all of the big no-nos when it comes to old games, no ALT+Tab and no strange resolutions. I've crashed more today playing BioShock 2 than the entirety of BioShock 1. These crashes didn't happen in high intensity situations that are performance hogs it just happens on interacting with certain things such as rescuing a little sister, entering an area, attacking a big daddy and the game autosaving (noticed this when I restarted the game and was placed right where I had crashed once). Usually I'm put back to my last manual save that was 20 to 30 minutes ago. Oh and quick saving crashes the game too.

Crashes

tried this on my Legion Go and now my 5070 PC and it still crashes nearly every 5 mins. It started after playing the game ~8 hours. So dissapointing becasue I was really enjoying and would like to finish the game but its driving me up the wall.

Masterpiece

This review would be a 5 if it weren't for the crashes. It is a 4 based on how good the game and minervas den is, I fortunately didn't experience crashes that bad, initally they were but the more I played it eventualy stopped crashing, didnt stop me from saving like a monkey with a button that gives them food. Point being this is one of the greatest games of all time, if you're looking at reviews for it you probably alreaddy know plenty about bioshock as a series. I can't atest to what your experience will be with crashesa so I suggest grabbing this on steam since I heard there's fixes on that version, didn't get as much leeway on the gog kind.
