Detroit Become Human trailer - Heavy Rain and Beyond folks try again

The fine folk at Quantic Dream have had a noble cause for a good few years now - to bring a new kind of adventure game to consoles with real play choice and consequences and cinematic style.

Fahrenheit was a scarppy but noble first effort (their previous game Omikron was something else entirely) and arugably the idea peaked with Heavy Rain. Follow up Beyond Two Souls took too much control from the player and was also just a bit of a dour time for all.

They're back with another go at this peculiar sub genre in Detroit Become Human, and it has serious potential. Here's the latest trailer which shows how many different ways a situation can go. And not all of them are good.
