More about BioShock Infinite
6 of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written July 2025 to October 2026. That is fewer refunded reviewers than 8 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 1,424 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 1,250 have a larger share. Inside the two-hour refund window, 79 percent of the 4,412 reviews written there were positive, against 93 percent overall, and those are 4 percent of everything written about it.
Finishing takes 11.6 hours; clearing it takes 29, which is 2.5 times the campaign.
146,074 reviews stand behind that percentage.
