Visit new challenge rooms in the underwater world of Rapture exclusively on the PlayStation 3.
The first downloadable content for BioShock will soon be available from the PlayStation Network on November 20th. This downloadable content is exclusive to the PlayStation 3 and therefore, cannot be played on the Xbox 360 or PC versions which were released more than a year before the PS3 version. Conflicts and arguments about PS3 exclusivity aside, here's what you get for downloading the $10 content package called "Challenge Rooms".
Three different challenge rooms will become available from the game's title screen after downloading the additional content from the PlayStation Store. Each room presents a different challenge, or series of challenges, that you, the player, must solve in a timely fashion. The Challenge Room downloadable content comes with additional trophies for collecting items, such as roses, and completing each challenge room in a specific amount of time. Please note that although these challenges do take place in the city of Rapture, they are in no way tied to the campaign's canon or lore.
In the Worlds of Hurt challenge room, one chamber is filled with Houdini Splicers that teleport and shoot poisonous projectiles.
Shocking Turn of Events
Shocking Turn of Events is more puzzle oriented compared to the other challenge rooms. Taking place at the Rapture carnival, a single Little Sister is trapped atop a busted Ferris wheel and you need to help get her down. It appears water has shorted out the wheel's electronics, so you will need to find other forms of electricity to power the wheel. Exploring and searching the surrounding rooms, which feature fully interactive carnival games, you will find items to power the Ferris wheel, such as electric shotgun shells and small doses of Electrobolt Plasmid. Crank the Ferris wheel six times to save the Little Sister.
Help the Little Sister trapped atop the Ferris wheel in the Shocking Turn of Events challenge room, and help another Little Sister escape a glass prison in Worlds of Hurt.
Worlds of Hurt
Worlds of Hurt is a Mega Man-style challenge room where you must cleanse eight chambers of all enemies to free another trapped Little Sister. Each chamber is filled with a variety of enemies ranging from security turrets to Big Daddies. All weapons are available in Worlds of Hurt, and you can upgrade them after each chamber at a Power to the People terminal. The trapped Little Sister will also drop you some Adam between chambers so you can power up with Plasmids. Some chambers are more difficult than others, so utilize all upgrades and choose wisely before entering the next challenge. Complete all eight "doors of doom" to save the Little Sister.
The I in Team
The I in Team challenge room will require you to use all of your BioShock skills to win. Using limited resources, and even more limited weapons and ammo, you must use wits instead of raw firepower to negotiate a Big Daddy through a series of traps. You're essentially using plasmids, such as Decoy, to lure the big dumb Daddy to its demise.
