Very much looking forward to seeing how the game plays.“I think they get the message” - Spoilers for Beyond: Two Souls follow. With that being said, Beyond looks awesome and it is cool that there is another big name actor in the mix. I’m sure it is a corporate scratch my back and I’ll scratch your back kinda thing, but it is extremely silly to promote the supposed killer of the video game industry. If 2nd hand sales were such an issue, wouldn’t you distance yourself far away from that kind of company if it hurts your bottom line so much? Yes, these people will be buying a new game with their pre-order, but it still is a feather in Gamestop’s hat by getting people in their doors and getting people to shop there. Why would you encourage gamers to shop and Gamestop if they were such a detriment to the industry with their business practices? THEN you go ahead and partner with the biggest reseller of video games on the planet to promote your games and get people in the doors of Gamestop with exclusive content. All these publishers and developers all complain about 2nd hand sales and that 2nd hand sales are ruining the industry. We’ll have much, much more content coming down the line in the coming months, so stay tuned! Any questions, just add them below.


Hopefully you’re as excited about BEYOND as we are, and remember to run out and pre-order early.

At a later stage we’ll have lots more to reveal on the interplay between Nathan and Jodie in the game (no spoilers today!), but suffice to say they form a compelling bond and together deliver some of the most unique and powerful scenes yet seen in gaming. Today, we’re pleased to announce that Ellen will be joined by another Oscar nominee in Willem Dafoe (Platoon, Spider-Man) who will star as Nathan Dawkins, a government scientist who works with Jodie to analyse her powers. Playing through 15 years of Jodie’s life promises to deliver one of the most thrilling and powerfully emotional experiences on PS3.

She possesses supernatural powers through her psychic link to an invisible entity she calls Aiden, and this gift has changed her life forever. BEYOND: Two Souls is a psychological action thriller starring Oscar nominee Ellen Page (Inception, Juno) in the lead role of Jodie Holmes and featuring Quantic Dream’s unique brand of gameplay.īEYOND tells the story of Jodie, a young woman who’s known since birth that she is different from everyone else.
