Sony has today announced that if you pre-order Quantic Dream’s big PS3 exclusive Heavy Rain, you will gain access to the first downloadable episode in the “Heavy Rain Chronicles” series. These DLC chapters would normally be priced at $4.99, but reserved copies nab the first episode for free.
The European version of the game will have a limited edition version that includes the DLC and a snazzy box. Check out the gallery for that.
“Each Chronicle will offer unique, stand-alone, playable short stories featuring one of Heavy Rain’s main characters, and a storyline taking place either before or after Heavy Rain’s original narrative,” explains Sony. “Similar to Heavy Rain, each episode will offer a unique journey and different outcomes based on the players’ decisions and actions.
“Heavy Rain: Chronicle One — The Taxidermist will feature investigative journalist Madison Paige in one of her first cases tracking down a serial killer. Most of you are familiar with this episode as it is an expansion and update to the original “Taxidermist” demo that received such positive response when shown last year.”
There you go. Free extra gameplay if you fancy reserving Quantic’s ever so artistic experience. Sound tempting? If it is, the pre-order program starts today.
