Sony and Quantic Dream Announce Detroit: Become Human for PS4
Quantic Dream 新作《底特律：变人》正式发表 探索潜藏于人造人深处的 “情感”



　　法国游戏开发商 Quantic Dream 创办人兼执行长戴维‧凯吉（David Cage），在方才举办的 PlayStation 巴黎游戏周媒体发表会宣布，将在 PS4 独占推出以 2012 年公布的 PS3 实机技术展示《卡菈（Kara）》为题材的冒险游戏新作《底特律：变人（Detroit: Become Human）》。

　　《底特律：变人》是以 2012 年 GDC 公布、为了展示 Quantic Dream 针对 PS3 开发的新游戏引擎所制作的实机技术展示《卡菈》为题材。 在当初的展示中，描述名为卡菈（Kara）的第 3 代 AX-400 女性型人造人，在工厂生产组装过程中意外出现情感，原本照程序应该被废弃销毁，但是操作员不忍抹消已经具备人性、不再只是单纯机器的卡菈，因而隐瞒真相让她正常出货。

　　当年这段技术展示公布后，因为演出相当逼真动人，许多玩家对卡菈离办厂后会展开什么样的故事情节感到非常好奇，相当期待此一题材能真正制作成完整的游戏推出。 但是当初担任导演的戴维‧凯吉曾表示，《卡菈》只是为了展示新游戏引擎与新演出撷取技术所制作的，没有游戏化的计划。 相关研发成果后来被运用在另一款 PS3 冒险游戏新作《BEYOND：两个灵魂》上。

　　如今戴维‧凯吉表示，他与玩家一样，对卡菈离办厂后的遭遇也感到相当好奇，现在他终于构思出完整的故事剧情，想象一个充满着言行举止如同人类的人造人的近未来世界，人类会如何与这些看似同类的人造人互动，以及原本被视为机器的人造人，一旦产生情感的话又会如何发展。

Quantic Dream’s Latest Game Detroit Revealed, Exclusive to PS4

Hi everyone. Some of you might remember a PS3 tech demo called Kara 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 this character 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?

I kept asking myself the same question since we released this short. I knew I had to find out!

So we imagined our 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 (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…

I am really excited to announce that Quantic Dream’s new title is called Detroit.

Detroit: Become Human New Trailer, New Playable Character Detailed

After our announcement at Paris Games Week last summer, we are very excited to be at E3 to show you more about our next title Detroit: Become Human! Today, we debuted a new trailer based on in-game footage, and we wanted to tell you a little bit more about the story of Detroit and an update on the game.

The World of Detroit

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…

Connor, the Deviant Hunter

After Kara, Connor is the second playable character we’re introducing.

Connor is an advanced prototype assigned to police forces to help them investigate cases involving deviants. He is cold and analytical; he thinks fast and benefits from some surprising advanced features. He is very determined and nothing matters more to him than accomplishing the mission he was programmed for.

In this new trailer, Connor is confronted with a tense hostage situation involving a deviant android holding a little girl and threatening to jump from a rooftop. Depending on your decisions and strategy, Connor will succeed or fail in saving the girl; survive or die. Your actions will lead to different outcomes and will have consequences far beyond this scene.









Play Your Own Story in Detroit

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.

As you play as all of the characters, you’ll see the story from different perspectives. You will need to weigh each decision, as actions made by one character may have consequences on others. You will also need to avoid putting the characters at risk, because they can all die, and like in Heavy Rain, the story will continue without them.

A New Engine

A game is not a matter of technology and emotions don’t need the latest shader to be felt, but we really wanted the best for Detroit (ok, and we also like developing tech). We have developed a brand-new engine with many advanced features (new renderers, a new dynamic lighting engine, physically-based shaders, physical cameras, and much more cool stuff). If you are like me and these terms sound foreign to you, check out the video for yourself.









Become Human

Detroit is about emotions, about dilemmas and making difficult decisions. Detroit is not just the story of androids becoming aware of themselves and their fight to be free, it is about a story that resonates at many levels in our world, about being free, about becoming who you are.

As always, we have put all our love and passion into this project, and we truly hope that you will enjoy seeing it as much as we enjoy working on it.

We still have a lot to work to do in order to make Detroit the truly unique experience we want to create, but we hope that you like this first look at gameplay.

Detroit: Become Human E3 2017 trailer, third and final playable character detailed
《底特律：变人》释出新宣传影片 多元选项改变剧情走向

　　索尼互动娱乐（SIE）于 2017 年 E3 电玩展 PlayStation 展前发表会中释出了 Quantic Dream 开发的 PS4 独占冒险游戏《底特律：变人（Detroit: Become Human）》新影像。 影像中透露了仿生人（人形机器人）的叛乱，还有游戏中具备多元的选项，会对剧情的走向产生巨大分歧。

　　《底特律：变人》是 Quantic Dream 继《暴雨杀机》、《BEYOND：两个灵魂》之后所推出的剧情冒险游戏，时代设定在距今约 20 年后的近未来世界，那时仿生人（人形机器人）已经成为一种普及的量产商品。 整个社会充满言行举止如同人类的仿生人，担任许多原本人类从事的工作。 不过原本应该依照设定程序运作的仿生人却陆续开始出现异常，有些仿生人无故失踪，有些仿生人攻击人类，有些仿生人则是产生不该有的情感，严重动摇了人类对此一 “商品” 的信赖度。

　　PS4 独占冒险游戏 《底特律：变人》发售时间未定。

Sony Interactive Entertainment and Quantic Dream debuted a new trailer for Detroit: Become Human during Sony’s E3 2017 press conference.

Additionally, over at the PlayStation Blog, director David Cage detailed the game’s third and final playable character, an android named Markus who fights to convince humanity androids are more than just machines:

After reintroducing the character of Kara at Paris Games Week two years ago, and revealing Connor in our first gameplay footage at E3 2016, we are thrilled to return to E3 for the unveiling of our third and final playable character: Markus.

If you’re not familiar with the game yet, Detroit: Become Human is Quantic Dream’s next title, for PS4 and PS4 Pro. It is a neo-noir existential thriller, set in a near future where androids look, speak, and move like human beings, and operate in society at every level from manufacturers to teachers.

Until now, humans have never considered these machines as anything more than tools designed to obey orders. But some of them are starting to exhibit strange behavior, as if they were experiencing emotions. The story of Detroit follows three of these so-called “deviants” as they begin to question their place in society, and desire freedom.

Markus (played by Jesse Williams) is an android who escaped his master and joined a small group of deviants hiding underground in Detroit. Lost and disparaged, they will try to find ways of convincing humanity that they are more than just defective machines – that they are alive.

In the new scene we’ve revealed at E3, Markus executes a covert operation during a cold Detroit night, with the aim of freeing androids that are for sale in a store. If he succeeds, Markus will have the opportunity to send a strong message to humans.

Will you manage to liberate your android brethren, or will you refuse to risk the life of their revolutionary leader? Will you send a message of pacifist disruption, or exercise revolutionary defiance? How will you navigate the dilemmas of leadership and wield your power?

In Detroit, you tell your own story through your choices. In each scene, every decision will have profound consequences – including whether each character lives or dies – but also a significant impact on the fuller story and the wider world: your attitude will shape media and public opinion, which will react in real time to your actions, altering the fate of your character.

In addition to Connor’s “Hostage” scene shown last year (playable at E3 this year on the show floor for the first time), we wanted to demonstrate again how branching Detroit really is. We also introduce for the first time a selection of new gameplay mechanics, which will allow players to experience the unique capabilities of androids as they create their story.

Both scenes also display the latest iteration of Detroit’s powerful engine and impressive technology. Each scene runs in dynamic 4K HDR on PS4 Pro and includes crowd management, special FX, full performance capture, and many other features that will make the world of Detroit more vivid and immersive for the players.

Kara, Connor, Markus – three androids discovering what it means to feel emotion – will take you on a moving journey of doubts, fear, hope and redemption. You will follow them as they struggle for freedom, you will join them in the fight to survive as the world collapses around them, and you will guide them through heart-wrenching dilemmas that put their lives – and the lives of those they care about – on the line.

Detroit: Become Human will launch in 2018
PS4 独占游戏《底特律：变人》将在 2018 年发售

While the E3 2017 trailer for Detroit: Become Human didn’t feature a release window, Quantic Dream director David Cage has told GameSpot the PlayStation 4 title will launch in 2018.

“It’s going to be next year,” Cage told GameSpot.

Here’s a brief overview of the game, via PlayStation.com:

Travel to the near-future metropolis of Detroit – a city rejuvenated by an exciting technological development: androids. Witness your brave new world turn to chaos as you take on the role of Kara, a female android trying to find her own place in a turbulent social landscape.

Shape an ambitious branching narrative, making choices that will not only determine your own fate, but that of the entire city. Discover what it means to be human from the perspective of an outsider – see the world of man though the eyes of a machine.

　　上周的E3上，索尼互娱展示了开发商 Quantic Dream 的 PS4 独占游戏《底特律：变人（Detroit: Become Human）》的最新 E3 宣传片，宣传片中没有提到游戏的发售时间，令许多玩家略感失望。游戏的导演 David Cage 正式向外媒透露《底特律：变人》将会在明年发售，但是没有明确指出是明年的什么时候。

　　《底特律：变人》最早起源于 2012 年技术展示，其描述了一台人造人Kara发现自己拥有情感并且有感知能力。游戏最早于 2015 年公布，但是开发早已开始。游戏将用最近的引擎制作，光是游戏的剧本就花了导演超过两年的时间，他称这个剧本比他以往所写的所有剧本都要复杂 20 倍。还有爆料称一些好莱坞影星如 Jesse Williams 和 Minka Kelly 将有可能加入游戏。

　　在《底特律：变人》中，玩家可以操控机器人角色：卡拉，康纳，马克思，展开机器人摆脱人类的解放革命运动。

　　游戏中的底特律作为人类与机器人共同发展的舞台，各行各业都充斥着机器人，比如消防员，XXOO机器人，工人，快递员，保姆，侦探，战斗人员等，因为服务型机器人被人类排斥打击，所以马克思决定反抗，领导众机器人不再受制人类，发展出自我意识作为“人”登场，不过革命是否展开由玩家决定。

　　鉴于这是一个 Quantic Dream 制作的游戏，玩家的每个决定都会导致不同的结局。

Detroit: Become Human launches in spring 2018
《底特律：变人》巴黎游戏周预告片公开

　　在巴黎游戏周 PGW 2017 索尼展前发布会上，Quantic Dream制作的最新作《底特律》的最新宣传片得以公布，展示了游戏新的剧情片段以及操作方式。

　　在预告中我们可以看出Todd与自己的小女儿Alice之间因为仿生人Kara产生了不小的矛盾。玩家可以在游戏中扮演Kara做出不同的选择，从而影响产生不同的结局。此前，在香港动漫节PlayStation开幕式上已经确定，《底特律：变人》将会推出中文版。

　　《底特律：成为人类》将会独占登陆PS4平台，2018年春季发售。

Detroit: Become Human will launch for PlayStation 4 in spring 2018, Sony Interactive Entertainment and Quantic Dream announced during the PlayStation Media Showcase at Paris Games Week 2017.

Here’s Quantic Dream director David Cage on the new trailer that debuted alongside the release window:

When we released a short video called “Kara” in 2011, we never imagined where it would take us. Initially just a tech demo, the story of this female android wanting to be free moved millions of people online and won an award at the LA Short Festival — a first for a short based on a game engine.

Since then, I tried to imagine what happened to Kara after she left the factory. I had to imagine a world, our world in 20 years – the city of Detroit reborn thanks to the android industry.

I also imagined two other playable characters: Connor, the deviant hunter working with the humans, and Markus, the leader of the android revolution.

Since we introduced Detroit with a teaser focused on Kara, we released demos of Connor and Markus. We wanted to close the loop by showing a demo of Kara, which we are proud to do at Paris Games Week, the place where we revealed the game to the world for the first time.

The scene we are presenting is a very important moment in Kara’s story: we discover that she is owned by a human, Todd Williams, the single father of a little girl called Alice.

At this point, Kara is an obedient android in charge of taking care of the house and Alice – but the situation turns out in an unexpected way. Confronted with Todd’s violence toward his little girl, Kara feels compelled to disobey and risk her life to save Alice.

This is the beginning of an intense road trip that will take them – Kara the deviant android and Alice the little girl – through the darkest corners of Detroit in a journey of danger, fear, and hope.

Detroit is the story of our world in twenty years, a world where androids that look like humans are treated like objects and have no rights. It is the story of three androids’ struggles: Kara escaping to protect a little girl, Markus fighting to be free, and Connor chasing deviants; three stories that may well determine the future of all androids.

As the player, you will tell these three intertwined stories simultaneously through your actions and decisions. You will be confronted with difficult choices, moral dilemmas, and critical decisions that will shape the destiny of your characters and the future of their world.

Your actions will significantly change the story. Choices made as one character may have an impact on the others. You will also need to remember that all three characters can die at any point, which won’t lead to a game over, but will allow the story to continue without them…

Detroit offers a unique experience, something you have never played before. It is a spectacular and unexpected journey full of emotions, twists and turns, dangers and hopes, in the most branching experience ever created by Quantic Dream; where every choice matters.

While playing Detroit, you will not only discover these three characters but many others, and we hope you will remember Connor, Markus, and Kara’s stories for a long time – three androids fighting to become who they are…

《底特律 成为人类》主创透露为何选择底特律成为故事中心

　　在Quantic Dream的最新作《底特律 成为人类》中，故事主创选择了全美犯罪率非常高的城市底特律作为故事发生的中心。许多人猜测这是否与《机械战警》的故事就发生在底特律有关，不过让大家失望的是，主创并非因此选择底特律，而是因为底特律是美国汽车工业的首都，同时也是福特汽车的所在地。

　　早在第一次工业革命在美国崛起时，美国的汽车工业在底特律兴起，不过在汽车工业开始向全世界蔓延后，许多汽车公司舍弃了这个城市，底特律也因此面临着包括财政在内的种种危机。
游戏中，Cyber-life公司同样将自己的工厂设立在底特律，就像当年的汽车工业一样，这里同样也是游戏中美国第二次工业革命的发生地。

　　因此底特律这样的工业历史背景让主创人员最终选择了这里作为游戏故事的中心舞台，而游戏中面临的许多问题其实也与底特律这座城市的历史有着某些相似之处。
游戏发售日期方面，《底特律 成为人类》计划在2018年春发售，对应平台为PS4。

Detroit: Become Human Launches May 25

We are proud to announce that Detroit: Become Human now has an official release date: on May 25th, you will finally have the chance to get your hands on Quantic Dream’s most ambitious title to date.

In a dystopian vision of our near future, Detroit is the story of three androids, three machines designed to obey, who start to feel emotions. Confronted with persecution and the violence of society, they will all have to decide who they want to be.

Connor is a prototype designed to help human investigators on cases involving androids; Kara becomes a fugitive by empathizing with a little girl, united in their dream of freedom; Markus will become the leader of the android revolution.

The player will control all three in turn, taking control of their destinies, and telling not only their individual stories, but also the story of their people and of their world.









Detroit is by far the most ambitious title ever created by Quantic Dream; with this game, we wanted to push our limits by creating the most bending game we have ever made. Your actions have real and spectacular consequences: there are entire scenes that you can see or miss based on your actions, your closest allies may help you until the end or die just after you meet them, your destiny itself can be totally different depending on your choices. You must also be very careful with your three main characters, because any of them may die at any time.

Each story is almost as unique as your DNA: it is the result of the choices you made, the minor ones and the important ones, because in Detroit, all choices matter. You will need to observe, think, decide, feel, follow your intuition or your heart, to tell the unique stories of each character, and their stories will become your personal story.

Detroit explores many complex themes that resonate with today’s world. Of course, it is about AI and the role of technology, but it is also more than anything about us, about our society, our dreams, our mistakes, our hopes. It is about what it means to be human: is it just about having flesh and bones, or does it mean more than that? We hope that it sparks some meaningful conversations and we’re looking forward to hearing what you think about it.









In order to depict the world of Detroit, we have also developed the most spectacular 3D engine we have ever created. We tried to push the limits of the PS4 as far as we could, with hundreds of highly realistic characters, full performance capture, scenes featuring crowds, all with a level of quality that we had never reached before. We have also imagined a new way of playing a story where you are in direct control of a complex story where any of your choices may have consequences.

With Detroit, Quantic Dream presents its most accomplished experience, a spectacular and unexpected journey full of emotions, twists and turns, dangers and hope, in the most bending story we have ever created – where every choice matters.

We hope you see Detroit as a unique experience that echoes some of the challenges our world faces, and maybe it even resonates with your own personal life. More than anything, we hope that Detroit will leave an impression on you, and that you will remember for a long time the story of these three androids who wanted to be free...

David Cage - Director, Quantic Dream
