Clipping Error discuss why they're excited about Quantic Dream's upcoming game, Detroit. The game builds upon the world and character created in the tech demo Kara, released a few years ago as an example of what Quantic Dream could do.

The tech demo was shown 3 yrs ago so im pretty sure they've been working on it for a while. I'm really optimistic that the game will release towards the end of next yr.
I fell in love with the character so I'm really looking forward to the closure of her story. Valorie captivated me with her performance so my expectations are high. Modify and keep the fundamental mechanics from heavy rain and give us an amazing presentation like in Beyond and we'll have an amazing experience.

GameHead853109d ago

I agree man, I can't wait either.

Aenea3109d ago

The behind the scenes video of the tech demo is on youtube, auditions and motion capturing started in 2010!

teo723109d ago

I've been hoping they would make this game ever since the Kara tech demo arrived in 2012. The concept is just too good not to make a game out of. Could also become a brilliant motion picture if hollywood ever makes it. And if 27 million youtube plays of the Kara tech demo is anything to go by, I think there is a market for such a movie. But let's not get a head of ourselves here. Game first, and for me at least, day one for sure.

OB1Biker3109d ago

Very excited for this game. Interesting that she says 'I'm one of them and this is OUR story'

S2Killinit3109d ago

Hmmm you are suggesting that there are more of them like her... Plausible, yes, intriguing, yes, planet of the bots anyone? Hell yes

miyamoto3109d ago

I hope David took some notes on the success of Until Dawn and what made it a hit for both hardcore and casual gamers- the game that is massively influenced by his games.

Ck1x3109d ago

I'm pretty sure that most of PS4's sales are to the core gaming audience. $399 is not a price point for a gaming device aimed at casual players (anyone willing to spend $300+ for a gaming device shouldn't be considered a casual gamer).

LAWSON723109d ago

$300 maybe a fair bit of money to some, but for others not really.

miyamoto3109d ago

Eh.......not sure about that coz a lot of mommy friends of mine are coming up to me about buying their 5th graders a PS4 this Christmas.
Asking for the best deals.

Quantic Dream Announces New Publishing Label Spotlight

Quantic Dream has announced a new publishing label, Spotlight, following the reveal of debut title Under the Waves.

sadraiden328d ago

Interesting to see how this works out for them. QD have had a very lucrative partnership with Sony. David Cage is a household name among Playstation owners, and he might not have been if QD stuck with Atari as their publisher. Now they're launching Spotlight so they can circumvent Sony exclusivity? I imagine this isn't the last we'll hear from Spotlight.

Abnor_Mal328d ago (Edited 328d ago )

Weren’t QD bought buy Tencent, and if so then I’m sure there wouldn’t be anymore Sony exclusivity.

Ok it seems to have been NetEase that bought them back in 2022.

mjchitown328d ago

this is not a Sony exclusivity. you can clearly see Xbox One Xbox Series X ps4 ps5

Sonic1881328d ago (Edited 328d ago )

Funny you mention that because in a few Diablo 4 articles, Xbox was the only console that was tagged. It didn't tag playstation or PC and Diablo 4 is a multiplatform game

porkChop328d ago

Bro they had a 3-game contract with Sony. That ended with Detroit. They've haven't been working together since then, so they aren't circumventing anything. They have no obligation to Sony.

CrimsonWing69328d ago

Didn’t they show a Star Wars fake at a Sony event?

I might be wrong about that, but I feel like that’s where I saw if.

porkChop328d ago

I don't think so, Star Wars: Eclipse was announced at the Game Awards.

CrimsonWing69327d ago

@porkchop

The Game Awards, you’re right!

Kekewei328d ago (Edited 328d ago )

I don't think so. There some sources claiming Sony was not happy with their partnership at the end, they even canceled a project that was supposed to be the 4th ps exclusive from QD.

QD is gold! They make excellent games

mastershredder328d ago

Can’t wait for all those quicktime events and bash-you-with-boredom storytelling.

Snookies12328d ago

There's nothing wrong with QTE's. Never understood the hate for them. You press a single button to attack in most games. You press a single button to jump in most games. Why does it then become an issue when you press a button during a cutscene to do something?

JackBNimble328d ago

It's a niche market and not everyone is into that type of game.

RedDevils328d ago

I like their games, it's different from all the trash we seeing every years.

GoodGuy09328d ago

God was Detroit a gem. Hope that their new games are at least on par.

That's great. Quantic Dream took everything they learned from their past games and built the most refined, coherent and interesting game and story yet. I even bought it on both PS4 and PC.

Seraphim471d ago

I preferred Beyond Two Souls. Still, Detroit was an exceptional experience just like Heavy Rain. Definitely happy to see the game has sold well over the years.

Fist4achin471d ago

Beyond was outstanding. Their other games were great, but BTS was my favorite so far.

CrimsonIdol471d ago (Edited 471d ago )

It took them nearly 5 years to accomplish that compared to a game that's just come out. Willing to bet a majority of those sales were heavily discounted too. Quantic Dream games were always heavily spruiked by Sony as exclusive graphical showpieces for the Playstation, so I'm sure that helped out too.

For reference the original Dead Space sold 2 Million over its lifetime, so some new IP from a new studio approaching that in its first year or so really isn't that bad.

sagapo471d ago

Great game, really enjoyed this one.
