Episode Two of BioShock Infinite‘s story DLC, Burial at Sea, is set to launch on March 25, Irrational Games confirms. The second episode picks up after the events of the first, released in late 2013, with players now taking control of Elizabeth in the undersea city of Rapture. The new content is said to feature more of a focus on stealth gameplay, and it introduces “new weapons and modes” as well (crossbow!!).

“In Burial at Sea – Episode Two, we are delivering a story that involves nearly every major character from the original BioShock and BioShock Infinite,” Irrational Games creative director Ken Levine said in a statement. “It is a story that will give gamers a new perspective on the BioShock universe and conclude the story of BioShock Infinite and Burial at Sea.”

We recently got to check out a clip from the opening minutes of Burial at Sea – Episode Two. Be warned that it’s very heavy on spoilers, so take care before you click that link and hit play. We also chatted with Levine shortly before the release of the DLC’s first episode, and he offered a few bits of info about the follow-up that’s less of a spoiler.

Of course, where BioShock is concerned, sometimes it’s best to just sit back, stop reading/watching everything, and just wait to play. You’ll get your chance on March 25.

Grand Theft Auto 6 pre-orders recently went live, but the excitement came with one frustrating catch. The so-called physical edition of the game will not include a disc. Instead, buyers will get a box with cover art and a download code inside.

That decision immediately caused backlash online, especially among collectors who still care about owning games on disc. For a while, there was some hope that this would only be temporary. Reports suggested that Rockstar could release a proper disc version of GTA 6 in December 2026, giving physical media fans something to wait for.

The Steam Machine launch hasn’t even happened, but the resale circus has begun
Scalpers are already trying to cash in on Valve’s Steam Machine

Valve has started sending out reservation emails for the Steam Machine ahead of its June 30 launch, and scalpers have wasted no time turning the whole thing into a comedy act.

The Steam Machine is already an expensive device, as RAM and SSD prices have made hardware pricing miserable across the industry. Valve has previously said it would like to lower the price if component costs improve. That makes the resale listings even harder to take seriously, because the official price was already higher than many people expected before scalpers added their own fantasy tax.

Valve Branding on the Steam Machine

When Valve finally revealed the Steam Machine's $1,049 starting price, the reaction was almost unanimous: the hardware looks fantastic, but the price hurts. Now, the company has confirmed what many gamers suspected all along: it never wanted the Steam Machine to cost this much in the first place.
