Sony has confirmed a Beyond: Two Souls release date of October 11 in the UK. Quantic Dream’s PS3 exclusive Heavy Rain follow-up is billed as a psychological action thriller covering 15 years in the life of protagonist Jodie Holmes (played by Ellen Page), who possesses supernatural powers through a psychic link to an invisible entity.
In early March, Sony announced a Beyond: Two Souls release date of October 8, 2013 in North America and simply October in Europe. At the same time, the company revealed that Willem Dafoe would co-star in the game alongside fellow Oscar nominee Page, plus details of a special edition and pre-order bonuses.
Later that month, we published a spoiler-free Beyond: Two Souls preview, in which we said: “We were completely absorbed by Beyond's strange cocktail of film-watching and game playing. The best stories stay with you long after they’re told and it’s already doing that. You’re either ‘in’ or you’re not when it comes to Quantic Dream games. Based on what we’ve just seen, we’re definitely in.”
In January, it emerged that Quantic Dream had registered a domain for singularityps4.com, hinting at what may be next for the studio. And in April, job adverts revealed the studio was looking for a lead online programmer with experience in AAA multiplayer, indicating that the solitary-narrative-pushing developer may be looking to expand its horizons.
