BioShock Infinite has been receiving hidden updates on PC for a number of months now, and no one knows why.

Over the past weekend, BioShock fans noted that the SteamDB database listing for BioShock Infinite had seen a slate of updates, stretching back a fair way. Ever since September 2021, someone has been quietly adding hidden updates to the PC version of BioShock Infinite, and they've only been increasing in quantity with each successive month.

It could be that BioShock Infinite is gearing up to launch on the Steam Deck. Right now, all games on the new hardware that run without any hinderance are included in the "Steam Deck Verified" program, but BioShock Infinite never made the list among the 1,000+ titles. There's games both old and new running seamlessly on Valve's handheld, so it wouldn't be a surprise to see BioShock Infinite popping up.
