BioShock Infinite goes gold, releases new trailer

BioShock: Infinite has gone gold. Barring some sort of catastrophic event, trucks bearing the long-delayed shooter from Irrational Games and Ken Levine will trundle to retailers near you by March 26. The series of tubes will be freshly flushed to ensure optimal digital distribution as well, we're sure.

"It’s a shooter, but a shooter that brings you to very uncomfortable and dangerous places," Levine said in an Irrational blog post. "I can’t demand that you play the game; I can promise you, however, that once you have, it will be an experience you won’t soon forget.

While the studio pops champagne to celebrate the culmination of more than three years of development, we'll just have to make do with the new trailer above, showing us a bit more about "the Lamb of Columbia," Elizabeth.

How does one ensure the safety of a lady who could tear the world apart with an errant sneeze, anyway?
