As we announced a few days ago, the remastering of the classic BioShock was about to hit the Mac App Store. BioShock is now available for download on the Feral o Steam, but soon it will be available through the Mac App Store. Again we see how the great and classic video game studios are still lacking in ideas and faced with the option of not launching new titles, they entrust themselves to the classics. It should be remembered that Starcraft has also undergone an important remastering, offering us 4k quality graphics and new sounds recorded and adapted to the new times.
The action of BioShock takes place in 1960 and we put ourselves in the shoes of Jack, who has suffered a plane crash in the city of Rapture, a city in which he will have to face mutated humans with powers but not exclusively, since Jack You will also have to deal with robots. Feral, game developer, has taken care of even the smallest detail of this remastering, a remastering that arrives 10 years after its release.
This new version will not replace, when it reaches the Mac App Store the version that currently, at least that is what the company stated when it officially announced the launch of this remaster. The only reasons that could lead us to buy the version that until now was available on the Mac App Store are the equipment requirements necessary to enjoy this game, since the price of them is practically the same.
