Quantic Dream has announced its new game. It's called Detroit and it might look a little familiar...
NewsIf you're not familiar with Quantic Dream, you probably should get acquainted. The developer has created some of the best cinematic video games of the last two generations of consoles, including Fahrenheit and Heavy Rain. Quantic is all about beautiful graphics and heartwrenching storytelling that will leave your head spinning (NOT looking at you, Beyond: Two Souls).
The developer's latest title has been revealed: it's called Detroit, and it's based on a 2012 tech demo called "Kara," which is a personal favorite of ours. It's the story of an android who wants to live as a human.

The game will tackle themes of artificial intelligence, including the rights of machines and whether they should be treated as servants to mankind. I think someone has been reading Isaac Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics again...
