2K have released an update for the smash hit BioShock. The patch contains a few bug fixes and tweaks, but there is also a whole lot of new content. The most notable inclusion is the addition of a new plasmid called Sonic Boom which causes players to giggle like little schoolgirls and slap their arms together – OK, it really means you can blast baddies and objects away with a force, but let’s face it you’ll be doing the first one too. Also included are three new tonics Eve Saver (uses less eve per plasmid), Machine Buster (guess) and Vending Expert (pay less for goods).

They also added the ability to disable Vita-Chambers, just for the hardcore types. Turning off Vita-Chambers and finishing the game on hard will also net you a new achievement called “Brass Balls”.

PC users can download the patch from BioShock’s page below while Xbox 360 players can download it from Live Marketplace or let it happen automatically when they start up the game. Oh, and it’s free.
