Detroit: Become Human is an upcoming science fiction video game developed by Quantic Dream and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment for the PlayStation 4. The plot is about an android named Kara who escapes the factory she was made in to explore her newfound sentience.

The game is derived from Quantic Dream's 2012 tech demo Kara. To research the setting, the developers visited Detroit, USA.

Plot

Kara (Valorie Curry)[1] is a freshly-produced android with artificial consciousness, discovering how it is to live among humans in Detroit, USA. She struggles to find her place as an autonomous android, in a world where androids are still without consciousness and considered as practical tools to improve the comfort of humans.[2]

Development

In late 2013, Quantic Dream founder and CEO David Cage was in preproduction on a PS4 exclusive, which he said would build upon what he had done in the past with Heavy Rain and Beyond: Two Souls, "but in a very, very different way".[3] The game was titled Detroit: Become Human[4] and is based on the developer's 2012 PS3 tech demo Kara.[5][6][7] Despite not originally having planned to make the demo into a full game,[8] Cage wanted to do so because he was curious as to what would happen next.[9] The developers travelled to Detroit to conduct research on the setting.[10]

Detroit: Become Human was announced on 27 October 2015 at a Sony press conference during Paris Games Week.[11]
