PS4 Detroit Become Human Game

The game is set in a near future where androids have been invented and are changing the fabric of society.

DETROIT: Become Human is a PS4 exclusive title developed in partnership with SONY COMPUTER ENTERTAINMENT Worldwide Studios. 

  

Some of you might remember our PS3 tech demo 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 Kara 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?

To find out, we imagined a 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 because 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…
