PS4 games trailer teases new 2017 titles, Shuhei Yoshida rules out Detroit: Become Human
SONY Detroit: Become Human will not be a PS4 games released in 2017
A new sizzler reel was posted to Twitter, showcasing some of the new PS4 games being planned for a 2017 release. The PlayStation EU account uploaded the new trailer, along with the accompanying tagline: “Happy New Year everyone! 2017 is going to be a big one for PS gamers. Here's just a few of the PS4 console exclusives we have coming.” Included in the montage were Gran Turismo Sport, Hellblade, Drawn to Death, Nier: Automata, Uncharted: The Lost Legacy and Detroit: Become Human. It appeared that a new leak may have occurred, confirming that Detroit: Become Human would have a 2017 release date set later this year. However, following its inclusion, President of Worldwide Studios, Shuhei Yoshida, clarified the situation after being asked by one fan: “This trailer lists Dreams/Detroit as 2017 games. Is this a mistake from marketing or is 2017 confirmed? Yoshida replied: “A mistake, thanks.”
The official description for the new title from Quantic Dream: “Inspired by our short called “Kara” back in 2012, Detroit is a neo-noir thriller set in the near-future city of Detroit. “Androids, who look exactly like human beings, have replaced humans in most tasks: they are workers, babysitters, gardeners, nurses, teachers, clerks. The story of Detroit starts with an unexplained incident that begins to affect the Androids. “Some disappear without any explanation, others have unexpected behaviors and strangely show signs of emotions. The rumors of “deviant” androids start spreading, but no one seems to know what’s really happening… “Detroit is based on concepts we created in our past games taken to another level (well, that’s the plan). “Detroit is about playing the story. Through your actions and decisions you drive the story and face the consequences of your choices. You are in charge of the fate of these characters. “You will become a “co-writer” who will have to make critical decisions that will impact the entire story and its world.”
