Quantic Dream’s Latest Game Detroit Revealed, Exclusive to PS4
Posted by David Cage on Oct 27, 2015 // Director, Quantic Dream
Hi everyone. Some of you might remember a PS3 tech demo called Kara that we released in 2012. It was about an android who discovered she could feel emotions and appeared to be sentient. Many people were deeply moved by this character and felt empathy for this character who just wanted to live. But everyone had the same question: what happens to Kara when she leaves the factory?
I kept asking myself the same question since we released this short. I knew I had to find out!
So we imagined our world in a near future where androids like Kara would look, speak, and move like real human beings. We wondered how we — humans — would react if we were confronted with a new form of intelligence, how androids conceived as machines would be perceived if they started to have emotions.
We didn’t want to do another story on AI (there are already so many great ones), we wanted to talk about what it means to be human and what it would be like to be in the shoes of an android discovering our world and their own emotions…
I am really excited to announce that Quantic Dream’s new title is called Detroit.
And just for fun, here's the PS3 tech demo that started it all:

Heavy Rain was an amazing game.
Beyond : Two Souls was ... not so much

Agreed, Fahrenheit/Indigo Prophecy and Heavy Rain were great titles, Beyond was a pretty big bleamish on their record but at least they took a shot at something different , can't wait to try whatever is next.

Same here. Was hyped as hell for Beyond, but I never even finished it, just didn't like it at all. This sounds really awesome, so I hope it lives up to the premise.

I'd be much more interested in this if David Cage's name wasn't on it. It's very pretty and the general idea sounds interesting, but I'd probably end up nitpicking it to death as I think he's a horribly mediocre writer who has way too high of an opinion of his own abilities.

We are proud to announce that Detroit: Become Human now has an official release date: on May 25th, you will finally have the chance to get your hands on Quantic Dream’s most ambitious title to date.
In a dystopian vision of our near future, Detroit is the story of three androids, three machines designed to obey, who start to feel emotions. Confronted with persecution and the violence of society, they will all have to decide who they want to be.

Reviews are out. 80 so far on Metacritic, although reviews are pretty mixed with a good amount of 90+ and 70 type of reviews. So seems about right for a Quantic Dreams game?
