Celebrate Ten Years of ‘BioShock’ With This New Collector’s Edition!

Published

Ten years ago today, we took a trip under the sea to Rapture. Yes, BioShock made a huge splash on the XBox 360 and PC (and PlayStation 3 the following year), spawned two sequels (and pinings of a Gore Verbinski film that never came to be), and made the mark that its forefather, System Shock, unfortunately failed to make.

In celebration of the game’s tenth anniversary, 2K have announced BioShock 10th Anniversary Collector’s Edition, set for release November 14th. Exclusive to GameStop and the 2KStore (US only, unfortuantely), the Collector’s Edition includes BioShock: The Collection, remastered for PlayStation 4 and XBox One, and containing all of the single player content, DLC, a behind-the-scenes BioShock Museum, and a new documentary.

As well, the Collector’s Edition includes an 11.9-inch high statue (modeled after the original game’s iconic box art), depicting a Big Daddy and Little Sister. The statue features a motorized drill and light-up components, as well as Big Daddy and Little Sister audio clips from the game. Certainly a much-cooler collectible than the original Big Daddy figure that was included with the game ten years ago.

Pre-orders are up and running, so would you kindly head over here to do so?

Clive Barker

We told you earlier this month that horror legend Clive Barker is leaving the convention scene behind to focus entirely on his writing, with various upcoming projects in the works.

A series of final appearances from Barker will begin at Days of the Dead Chicago this month, and we’ve learned Barker will also be coming to Monster Mania in New Jersey.

Clive Barker will be signing at Monster Mania 59 in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, which runs from August 2 – August 4, 2024. Stay tuned for more info from the convention.

Barker’s official statement earlier this month explained, “… it’s time to focus entirely on writing. I’m not stopping public events because I’ve lost delight in meeting you all over the years. I’m as passionate as ever about sharing my imagination with readers and moviegoers around the world. In the very room where I’m writing these words, I have the manuscripts for a very large number of projects (Thirty-one of them), some very close to completion, others still telling themselves. There are some wild projects in this collection of works, whether close to finished or done. There are also stories that you all knew I would be finishing.”

“Abarat IV and V are amongst the books at my feet,” he continued. “So is the Third and final book of The Art and the sequel to The Thief of Always. There are also return visits to characters and mythologies you may have thought I would never return to.

“I hope I am still able to surprise you in the decades ahead.”
