Elizabeth, the girl you’ve been sent to retrieve, helps you accomplish your mission. This guide will assist you every step of the way.
The Official BioShock Infinite Strategy Guide is the culmination of repeat trips and extensive time on-site at Irrational Games. Its authors played through the game numerous times, turned it inside out, interviewed key members of the development staff, and packed everything they could into this guide. Here is just a sample of what you can expect:
Detective Training
An extensive discussion of every gameplay mechanic present in the game, with a focus on advanced combat techniques, player growth, and difficulty modifiers.
Guns of Liberty
A detailed analysis of both Founder and Vox Populi arsenals, including all available weapon and damage statistics, tactical advice, and tips for upgrading each weapon through the ubiquitous Minuteman’s Armory machines.
Booker’s Campaign
This in-depth walkthrough guides you every step of the way through the game, highlighting each collectible as you progress. This is presented in a spoiler-free format that simply alerts players to situations in which they have a choice, but leaves the outcomes to be discovered later. Foolproof combat advice and navigational strategies serve to ensure you won’t get stuck along the way.
Enemies of the People
Whether a foe is Founder or Vox, you can be sure Booker will ultimately wind up crossing paths with them. This section details enemy behavior and tactics for dispatching them, and it also includes all available enemy health and damage data.
…And Much, Much More
Inside this strategy guide, you’ll also find transcriptions of all 80 Voxophones, Vigor and Gear strategies, a guide to unlocking all 50 Achievements/Trophies, and a tremendous collection of beautiful BioShock Infinite art you can’t see anywhere else. This guide also covers all of the DLC that was created for BioShock Infinite, including Clash in the Clouds, Burial at Sea: Episode 1, and Burial at Sea Episode: 2.
