In BioShock 2, you step into the boots of the most iconic denizen of Rapture, the Big Daddy, as you explore through the decrepit and beautiful fallen city, chasing an unseen foe in search of answers and your own survival.

Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 7/day in the week to Aug 20 → 7/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Poland over the last 30 days: the 21 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 12 places towards #1, and the 2,501 moves with no price cut behind them went 1 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

玩几下闪退一次,我看你妈也是天天闪退,每次都得从你外婆的皮炎子里钻出来
TLDR: Bioshock 2 is an amazing game, that despite its age still kicks ass. The first game was the one I the most fondly remembered because of its unique atmosphere and amazing story. But the second one holds up way better for a playthrough in 2026. It significantly improves upon the gameplay aspects, introduction of new gun and abilities, and level design. The story is good, but doesn't reach the same height as the first one. Of course, I have to mention the issues with frequent crashes in the remastered version, but for me it was a simple fix with the "Bioshock 2 Remastered Crash Fix" mod from Nexus mods. Hat's off for the creator.

14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 14: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

Great game with several mod additions from nexusmods: -Bioshock 2 Remastered Crash Fix -Bioshock 2 Remastered - HD Texture Pack -Bioshock 2 Remastered - HD Fire and Misc -Reflective water surfaces for Bioshock 2 (Original and Remastered) -Fullscreen Cutscenes for Bioshock 2 Remastered -No-Intro-Splash (Skip Startup - Splash Videos) -Visual fixes for Bioshock 2 Remastered -Disable headbob -Deep Pockets (Bioshock 2 Remastered) A great addition to the first game's story. At start I wasn't very interested in the story, and as I continued to play I became more and more invested. You don't need to kill to get enough adam trust me :) I also recommand the DLC if you wonder about doing it. Pretty cool story!
the best bioshock
The amount of bugs I've encountered in this remaster is ridiculous. Bioshock 1 remaster I had no issues with but playing this... Randomly floating constantly.
Bought the collection a few years ago when the whole series goes on sale for 12 bucks. Thought I'd play for memories sake as I love the game, as it turns out you can't even play the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ thing. Lags even booting the thing up and freezes every input when you actually get INTO the game. I don't know what happened to the game but it's ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ to pay for something I don't even get to play anymore.

闪退很让人沮丧,沉浸进去忘记保存,一个闪退整个关卡重来。 战斗部分比一代流畅许多,但是不能暂停切武器导致在慌乱中产生很多失误。人物太脆了,如果同时暴露在两个敌人的视野范围内就很容易残血。 丢掉了一代让人恼火的通水管小游戏,改为了一个反应力小游戏,体验好些了但是从头到尾玩还是很无聊。 对于剧情推动全靠录音和旁白的沉浸式模拟类游戏,真的很需要中配,要不然一边战斗一边看字幕或者专门停下来看字幕都非常不沉浸,严重影响体验。
8.9/10, Not as good as the first game in terms of emotional endings or morality but it still is a very good game ( mostly carried by its great gameplay ) it features more sections where your morals are tested and the villian was pretty decent. However the game didn't feature the Bioshock type of story and rapture felt less populated? than the first game. Still great experience tho.
Вторая часть хороша, первые минут 20 все было хорошо, а потом постоянные вылеты Играть стало невозможно
