BioShock 2′s ‘Scout’ Plasmid, Explained

Though MAG and Mass Effect 2 dropped today, it’s still t-minus 2 weeks to BioShock 2′s release, and 2K wants you to watch this teaser trailer in anticipation of the plasmid powers awaiting you.

In “Scout” mode, you release your astral form (I guess) to examine what dangers lie ahead – but it’s not just a passive observation. Plasmid powers are still usable. Just not guns.

BioShock 2′s out Feb. 9

      It was released on Jan 26 in the US. (Also, it’s already out here after retail broke the street date.)

    So its like the distraction technique in the first game only you fully control it and can use plasmids, that sounds pretty cool!
