At Sony’s gamescom press conference today, Quantic Dream’s David Cage revealed the two remaining playable characters in the long-awaited Heavy Rain. The first is Scott Shelby, a private detective who is investigating the Origami Killer case.
The final character is Ethan Mars, an architect whose son, Sean, has gone missing. Ethan has just four days to locate the child or… well, we don’t know yet. I’m guessing that something awful will happen if he fails, as my other guess of “not being able to visit the zoo” doesn’t seem like a proper dramatic conclusion.
Some screenshots are available in the gallery below; there’s a new trailer after the jump. This is easily my most anticipated game right now and I’m really excited by the dramatic possibilities of the story and gameplay. I would ask if you guys are too, but I know the answer to that because you’re all rational, intelligent people who clearly recognize that this game looks to be fan-frigging-tastic.
