2K has finally announced that all of the single player goodness from the BioShock series will be coming to the PS4, Xbox One, and PC. It’s been three years since BioShock Infinite came out and 2K seems excited to offer the remastered games to all the next gen players.
The trailer they released is of the 2007 released BioShock. It is unclear which platform the video was taken on, however, 2K has said that all the games will run 1080p at 60fps. The remastered versions of the games will also include all the single player DLC for each game. BioShock: The Collection will also feature a Directors commentary from Ken Levine and lead artist Shawn Robertson.
Here is a list of what is included per game via the 2K blog.
