Irrational Games unveils ‘1998 Mode’ for BioShock Infinite


2K and Irrational Games have recently announced the new mode called the ‘1998 Mode’ which will be available on the popular game, BioShock Infinite.

The ‘1998 Mode’ will be revealed alongside the upcoming DLC Burial at Sea – Episode Two that is set to launch on March 25th.

Players will have to complete the story using only non-lethal tools, when playing the ‘1998 Mode’.

Creative Director Ken Levine states:

“In Burial at Sea – Episode Two we put a focus on balance and stealth mechanics,” said Ken Levine, creative director of Irrational Games. “As we were developing this new style of gameplay, we started to see people self-impose non-lethal playthrough’s. Given the fan reception of 1999 Mode, we thought it would be cool to give them another way to play Burial at Sea that challenged their mastery of stealth tools.”
