After the first promotional video for "BioShock" went live, players eagerly discussed it, but they did not manage to glean much information.

After all, it had been far too short. Just as many players were preparing to denounce CEO Chen as the Riddler, something unexpected happened.

Only half a month later, Chen Xu released a second promotional video, and this time, it revealed far more information.

In this trailer, the entire CG sequence used actual in-game environments.

It was clearly meant to tell players that this was Gameplay Demo footage.

Shrouded in clouds, the massive Sky City Columbia appeared before countless players.

The majestic city in the sky, the deep blue heavens, and the textured white clouds made it feel like a fairy tale world.

Among the countless clouds, enormous airships drifted slowly forward.

The clouds in the sky seemed close enough to touch, creating a dreamlike scene.

All of these cities floated in the air, linked together by enormous chains.

In the distance stood a gigantic island statue resembling an angel.

But in the next moment, the footage suddenly shifted.

The sound effects became ominous as well.

Dark tones and splattering blood.

'The Prophet's descendants shall stand upon the throne...'

'And stand amid raging flames before a sea of people.'

The war scenes from the first trailer flashed past, and the next moment, the scene switched to the dreamlike Sky City Columbia.

The footage kept changing: battles, beautiful scenery, sinister palaces, a world burning with war...

An unknown narrator, Elizabeth's voice, and Dewitt Booker's voice.

'The false shepherd will come to abduct the lamb.'

'Who are you?'

'I can get you out!'

'Your shepherd's crook has long been bent, and your path ahead is full of twists and turns.'

'What price will you pay?'

Booker and Elizabeth stood aboard
