[FREE UPGRADE REMINDER] Bioshock and Bioshock 2

BIOSHOCK ON STEAM: If you already own BioShock, BioShock 2, or Minerva’s Den on Steam, the remastered version for the corresponding title will automatically show up in your Steam library as a separate game

So probably yes

they do

View attached image.

truth

If you own all the DLC then yes it's "free"

They doesn't mention anything about this. For Skyrim, the Legendary edition or all the DLCs are needed though.

"the remastered version for the corresponding title" So this probably means that the upgrade is for each title separately :)

my guess is yes, because for these remastered versions to appear automatically in your library they probably just update all the current steam packages containing these games to now also contain the new ones. So your key will still unlock the same, but now updated, package.

I trade a old DiRT 3 key and when the guy activated it he gots DiRT 3 and DiRT 3 Deluxe Edition. So, maybe.

Yes. Remasters have been added to packages for the original versions. Whether you redeem a key for he d version or the new version you get both.

So I'd say yes, since they allow actvation of old cd keys (Games for Windows Live keys) from the physical copies, there's no reason why they would not to do the same for old unactivated Steam keys.

Wouldn't go so far as to say they should be free, redoing all the textures for a game, or remaking models, etc etc... Can be time consuming... However, I would say that owners of the original title should get it at a discounted price.

Dishonored? What the hell, dishonored didn't release any "definitive edition" update, they just renamed the GOTY package.

Same, not gonna buy Minerva's Den till it goes down under 4 euro.

OKAY!

You will still get what you own remastered.

Refer to the thread, yes, you will get Bioshock 1 remastered.

If it's a choice that you would have made regardless, then it's a choice. If you're obeying an order that you wouldn't have ordinarily gone through with, then you obey. I suppose it could be rephrased as "A man makes his own choice, a slave lets someone else make the choice for them." but I guess that's not as poetic.

I'm wondering the same thing, since a lot of rereleases tend to supersede and replace the original version. I'm considering just buying the DLC now for collection purposes, since trying to buy it or trade for it in the future could be quite a bear.

From what it sounds like we'll keep the original copies as well, these will just be added to the library, and (most likely) the old store page listings will be removed and replaced with the remastered versions.

It would be bad if 2 was removed because Bioshock 2 REMASTERED doesn't have multiplayer.

That was the opinion when this was first announced. The opinion seems to have changed.

When I last checked, you can't buy the dlc on Amazon, even when they had the games on sale. Is that a hint? I don't know.

I did it ... they want a foto of DVD, of the cover and a piece of paper with e-mail and ticket id written on it ... that's all ... was easy, and I received my Bioshock 1 key within 24 hours. Bioshock 2 key worked out of the box

No the PC version is current therefore no any updated version atm

Infinite Remaster is supposed to be PC->Console Port.

~9 hours from now

Nothing to do, just wait.

"BioShock: The Collection for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC will be available in North America on September 15, Australia on September 15, and internationally on September 16"

Their Steam announcement has a Timezone converter link provided under the "I own BioShock on PC. How do I get the remastered version?" section of the article, it's already setup for you.
