A since-deleted Twitter thread from a user named Butmac (who claims they produced the BioShock Infinite trailers around 10 years ago) featured side-by-side screenshots showcasing how similar the propaganda signage littering the steampunk cityscape, mechanized automaton enemies, and character design flourishes we see in Clockwork Revolution’s trailer are to equivalent details from BioShock Infinite’s.
Kotaku reached out to Butmac for comment.

Since the release of Clockwork Revolution’s official reveal trailer, both inXile studio head Brian Fargo and a representative at Microsoft have responded to folks claiming the “time-bending steampunk first-person RPG” aped major story beats from BioShock Infinite.
In a recent report from IGN, a Microsoft spokesperson said “any similarities are unintentional” and stressed the gameplay differences between the two titles by highlighting the fact that, unlike in BioShock Infinite, “players will be able to fully customize their own main character” in Clockwork Revolution.
“Important to know that Clockwork Revolution is a true RPG with all of the stats, crunchy details and deep reactivity that we’re known for,” Fargo wrote in a Twitter post.
Clockwork Revolution does not have a release date, but when it does, it’s slated to release on Xbox Series X/S and Windows PC.
