Gameplay
BioShock 2 is presented as a
first-person shooter, with the player taking on the role of
Subject Delta, a prototype for the
Big Daddies 8 years after the events of the first game. As in
BioShock,
the player explores Rapture and fights off splicers, the remaining
psychotic human population of the undersea city, using a combination of
the environment, weapons, plasmids, and tonics. Plasmids and tonics are
special genetic-reencoding liquids that grant the user active or passive
abilities, respectively, and include many of those introduced in
BioShock as well as new ones. For example, plasmids can give the player the ability to use
telekinesis
or to invoke fire, while tonics can improve the player's movement
speed, attack damage, or damage resistance. Several of the weapons in
BioShock 2
were previously seen carried by Big Daddies in the first game,
including a powerful drill and a rivet gun. The player can use each
weapon in a close-range melee attack, unlike in the first game, and is
able to equip a weapon and a plasmid at the same time, which they can
use in quick succession to destroy enemies. For example, the player
might freeze a foe using a plasmid then shatter it using a spear gun. If
the player is killed, they are revived in the nearest "vita-chamber."
Story
BioShock 2 takes place in
Rapture
in 1968, 8 years after the events of the first game. Tenenbaum has
briefly returned to Rapture once she realizes that someone is continuing
her work by enslaving new Little Sisters. In 1958, Subject Delta (the
fourth Big Daddy created) is forced to commit suicide by Sofia Lamb
through the use of a
mind-controlling
plasmid. This was done in part because Delta's Little Sister, Eleanor,
is actually Lamb's daughter. Lamb was originally brought to Rapture to
help psychologically-stressed citizens of the underwater city cope with
the lack of sunlight and used persuasion to entice her patients into a
cult called "The Rapture Family", and attempted to spread her altruistic
ideals throughout Rapture. Andrew Ryan discovered this through a mole,
Stanley Poole, and had Lamb thrown in prison leaving Eleanor in the care
of Grace Holloway. Eleanor eventually confronted Poole about his
betrayal of her mother. Poole panicked, kidnapping Eleanor and leaving
her in a Little Sister's Orphanage, eventually leading to her conversion
into a Little Sister. Lamb later returned to the city, reclaimed her
daughter from Delta, and gained control of Rapture after Ryan's death.
Lamb guided the development of the aging Little Sisters into more
dangerous Big Sisters and sent them out to the Atlantic coastline to
kidnap little girls for conversion into new Little Sisters in Rapture.
