THE BUZZ: 2K Games has announced the official release date of Bioshock Infinite.

The shooter will launch October 16 in the U.S. and March 19 in Europe, for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC.

“After BioShock, we had a vision for a follow up that dwarfed the original in scope and ambition,” said Irrational Games creative director Ken Levine. ”BioShock Infinite has been our sole focus for the last four years, and we can’t wait for fans to get their hands on it.”

EGM’s TAKE: The suspense has been killing us, now we finally have a date that we can start hyping over. We’ve already circled it on our calendars and will continue to frantically cross off the days. It seems so far away. Members of the team are feverishly working on creating a time machine as I type this. We’ll keep you posted on how it goes.

Matthew Bennett has only been covering the gaming world for a short while, but he’s eager to make his mark. An ability to go many hours without sleep and a quick wit make him ideal for his role as associate editor at EGMNOW.com. He often thinks back to the days when the very idea of this career seemed like nothing but an impossible dream. Follow him on Twitter @mattyjb89. Meet the rest of the crew.
