Irrational has finally revealed Project Icarus to be their new BioShock: Infinite.

BioShock Infinite is a first-person shooter set in 1912 in Columbia, a city in the sky which is a "floating symbol of American ideals."  You play as former Pinkerton agent Booker DeWitt, who is sent to the lost city to rescue Elizabeth, a young woman imprisoned there since childhood, as your relationship between the two characters grow so do your powers.

“We are excited to expand the world of BioShock, which is one of the industry’s most critically acclaimed and beloved franchises,” said Christoph Hartmann, president of 2K. “We believe that Irrational Games will lend their meticulous attention to detail and unique storytelling expertise to make BioShock Infinite an incredible entertainment experience that will immerse new and diehard fans of BioShock alike.”

Ken Levine said, "In order to explore the floating city of Columbia, we needed an entirely new engine. To bring Elizabeth to life, we had to build brand-new animation and AI systems. To create wide-ranging indoor and outdoor firefights at 30,000 feet, we had to rethink, rebuild and expand the BioShock arsenal. The only thing gamers can be certain of is this: the rules of the BioShock universe are about to change."

BioShock: Infinite is set to launch 2012.
