It has been nearly three years since Irrational Games released BioShock, a critical darling and a financial success. Somehow, designer Ken Levine and his team have managed to keep their new project under wraps until now. The mystery ends today, with the unveiling of BioShock Infinite. Set in 1912 (making it a prequel!), Infinite will look unlike anything you'd expect from a BioShock game.

Bioshock in the sky!
Woohoo! rclxms.gif

Always thought Icarus = something to do with sky from the tweet.
But never thought it is a Bioshock game.

*edit*

some more details

from the interview:

1. Ken Levine said that the buildings in the sky can actually collapse!!!
2.This game uses Unreal Engine 3(bioshock was Unreal Engine 2.5), but theres no shared codes, meaning all fresh and new
3.Bioshock Infinite wont feature photorealism as crysis or other next gen fps, but rather a "stylized visual"
4.The ppl whos working on this game consist a very limited ppl of only 80 staff (I like this, quality over quantity)
5.Combat will now involves more baddies, he mentioned 15 thugs at once shocking.gif
6. Bad guys dont suddenly attack you, theres actually some sequence before they start to gank you nod.gif

An excerpt of the demo:

You play as Booker DeWitt, a disgraced Pinkerton agent, and you need to find a woman named Elizabeth in a city called Columbia.
Which brings you to the problem, you dont know where the hell is Columbia! (hint:its in the sky...lol)
Some weird things happens, some woman sweep her stoop while a house behind her burns, dead horse lying on the ground.(really wtf)
Got some sequence where "the boss" order his underlings to attack you.One of the thugs can control crows.
After you killed him, you get some bottle shaped like crow and drink it, and presumably get the power
Theres a sky track, connecting the buildings, and you use some hook device to travel.Theres also some action sequence while you travel.
You found Elizabeth, she actually turns out to be badass too, making a raincloud.You use the boosted electric power to clear the baddies.
Elizabeth makes a big metal ball, you use telekinesis to throw it over the thugs.
You actually see the badass guy in the trailer's face, with floating heart and big hands, and turns out he wasnt all that badass.
Cos a big effing bird lands and trashes a building behind him! (maybe someone was riding it?)

*NEW*

demo video, 100x better than wall of text

Saltonstall, the mini "boss" with the hook thingy (to travel along the sky track)
