BioShock 2 drops ‘Sea of Dreams’ subtitle, confirmed to not have co-op mode *Update* simultaneous platform release
With the latest issue of Game Informer out, a whole vat of fresh info eventually surfaced about BioShock 2: Sea of Dreams. Oh, wait, sorry about that. 2K Games apparently dropped the ‘Sea of Dreams‘ part already – it’s just going to be BioShock 2 from now on. Meanwhile, it’s very definite now: the game will have multiplayer, just not co-op.
*Update* 2K Games is aiming for a simultaneous release across all platforms.
With the latest issue of Game Informer out, a whole vat of fresh info eventually surfaced about BioShock 2: Sea of Dreams. Oh, wait, sorry about that. 2K Games apparently dropped the ‘Sea of Dreams‘ part already – it’s just going to be BioShock 2 from now on.
As confirmed by community manager Elizabeth Tobey: “You wonÂ’t be seeing ‘Sea of DreamsÂ’ moving forward, just BioShock 2.”
Anyways, moving back to Game Informer tidbits, apparently, Tobey also had to make certain few clarifications.
The internet has been busy these past few days with rumors about what is and is not in BioShock 2. While I won’t be giving away any details from the [Game Informer] article here (I’ll let you experience it for yourself) I will let you know that there wonÂ’t be any spliced-up rhinos, Soviet invasions, or co-op, but you may very well see a Big Daddy or two. The game will feature quite a bit else
So, yes, there will be multiplayer. But as Eurogamer previously hinted, it’s now definite that it won’t be co-op. It’s sunk. And that most probably applies to all versions: the Xbox 360, PS3, and PC.
*Update* Care of CVG, we now hear that 2K Games is aiming for a simultaneous release across all three platforms. The operative word here is that they’re “aiming” for it. This follows news from the other day that the Xbox 360 might get a timed-exclusivity on BioShock 2, just like the first game.
Meanwhile, 2K Games’ representative also told CVG that more details on BioShock 2: Sea of Dreams multiplayer mode will be revealed “soon enough.”
