Indebted to the wrong people, and with his life on the
line, hired gun Booker DeWitt has only one opportunity to wipe his slate clean.
He must rescue Elizabeth, a mysterious girl imprisoned since childhood and
locked up in the flying city of Columbia. Forced to trust one another, Booker
and Elizabeth form a powerful bond during their daring escape. Together, they
learn to harness an expanding arsenal of weapons and abilities, as they fight on
zeppelins in the clouds, along high-speed Sky-Lines, and down in the streets of
Columbia, all while surviving the threats of the air-city and uncovering its
dark secret.
