Today we can confirm that the Beyond: Two Souls demo will be available on Tuesday, October 1st on PlayStation Store. There will be opportunities for a few of you to get in on September 24th — we’ll be announcing those soon.
This demo will include two scenes from the game, giving insight into the extraordinary story that awaits you next month. This will be the first chance for most to go hands-on and experience the improvements Quantic Dream has made to Heavy Rain’s control scheme.
The Beyond: Two Souls demo will feature the following two scenes from the final game:
- Jodie & Aiden: Join a very young Jodie as she takes part in an experiment at the Department of Paranormal Activities. As officials put her abilities to the test, you take charge of a mysterious, invisible entity.
- Hunted: Skip forward a number of years and help Jodie escape the clutches of government agents as the mysterious entity unleashes its truly astonishing powers.
We’ve also got the third of our four part ‘Making Of’ series, which details the huge undertaking that was the year-long performance capture shoot for Beyond: Two Souls. Hear from writer/director David Cage and lead actors Ellen Page and Willem Dafoe on the intricacies of the set design, and how performance capture for a video game is so different than a traditional movie shoot.
Chime in below with your questions, and I’ll reply to them as soon as I can!
Please tell me you guys are gonna keep supporting the PS3 with awesome games for the next 2 years. I just pre-ordered the GTA5 Bundle and don’t intend to get a PS4 for at least 3 years.
i already bought it i can’t wait to get this game it looks so amazing
Ok I know I am late to the comment section but I have a question, I know David Cage said it will have tablet and phone support but will it work with the Vita. Also will the tablet/phone support be available in the demo.
you had me till ellen page.
@37 He’s right!! You DO want a change-of-pace in the middle there ;)
I just wanted to thank you guys for the naming of the title. Hopefully the IGN Playstation team won’t croak yelling “BEYOND!” over and over when a video review goes up =p. Also I’m waiting for GTAV to come out on PC (I have such a large back catalog of Steam/PC titles as well as PS3/Vita titles being a PC, console and handheld gamer) so my time is all yours Ellen =p.
@51 – The PS3 will no doubt live on with great releases into 2015. No offense to Xbox fans, but Microsoft seems to stop development/promotion cold in key markets when a new product is released.
@53 – No word on Vita (I would hope so though) but no, as seen as a response on the first page this feature won’t on display at all in the demo.
