Earlier in the year Take Two announced that Bioshock 2 would be released in the fourth quarter of its 2009 fiscal year.

While BioShock was released exclusively on the Xbox 360, the initial announcement for next-generation consoles along with a job posting on developer 2K Marin’s website soon suggested that BioShock 2 might be headed to the PS3 as well as the 360.

The July magazine cover of UK-based PlayStation gaming magazine ‘PSM3’ has confirmed that BioShock 2 is heading to the PS3. First spotted by Computer & Video Games, the cover of the magazine reads “Proof why Xbox’s best shooter is better on PS3” although details of the PS3 version are still scant.

According to 1UP, the July issue of EGM also confirms the underwater shooter is heading to the PS3. IGN is reporting that 2K Games has confirmed that “BioShock is in development for the PlayStation 3.”
