WATCH: "Detroit" Game Trailer Shows Off A Futuristic Detroit Packed With People And Androids

Show notes

The detail on this is pretty impressive, from the Guardian Building to the Spirit of Detroit, and much more. 

Announced today at Sony’s Paris Games Week news conference today, the next installment  from Heavy Rain and Beyond: Two Souls developer Quantic Dream is called Detroit. 

Detroit: Become Human looks at what happens when Kara, a highly functioning android, leaves her factory and explores a life she wasn’t designed for. At least this modern Detroit has what looks like to be at first blush an awesome mass transit system. 

The game apparently will explore and ask the question, “What does it mean to be human?”

In this future Detroit, lifelike androids co-exist with humans, though they are clearly segregated and relegated to serving their creators. The graphics look amazing, but no guarantees on the gameplay. There is no word on a release date, but the game will be available on the PlayStation 4.
