When BioShock: The Collection released back on 13th September, the PC version of the game was faced with a number of problems that took away from the overall experience. Visual options that are commonplace for PC releases these days like anti-aliasing, vysync or anisotropic filtering were all but absent.
Thankfully, 2K has heard these concerns and have now released a brand new patch for the games. This new patch fixes a number of issues, and allows adjustment for a number of in-game settings like Field Of View and Mouse Sensitivity. 21:9 resolutions are now also available and the UI is now capable of supporting 2 modes, Stretch or Centered.
