Elizabeth Lookalike Gets the Gig of Playing the Bioshock Infinite Character in Advertising

Elizabeth Lookalike Gets the Gig of Playing the Bioshock Infinite Character in AdvertisingFans were left disappointed after the cover for Irrational Games’ upcoming Bioshock Infinite was revealed. Irrational’s latest move in how Bioshock Infinite is presented, is to employ a cosplayer to become Elizabeth while they’re marketing the game.

The Russian born Ormeli (real name, Anna Moleva), is on the back of the uninspired game box, will be making appearances at certain events, and possibly showing up in a live-action ad, according to Ken Levine on Irrational’s Blog, which we saw thanks to Kotaku.

“We were so amazed by her dedication and her resemblance to Elizabeth that we decided to ask her if she’d like to be involved in helping bring Elizabeth to life in our box, our key art and our upcoming television ad.”

I have a feeling that the live-action ad will be a bit better than the game sleeve…well, I hope so.

Bioshock Infinite will be released on February 26, 2013 for Windows PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3
