Geen Heavy Rain 2 in productie
Heavy Rain-ontwikkelaar Quantic Dream heeft bevestigd dat er in de toekomst geen vervolg op de BAFTA-winnaar Heavy Rain. De ontwikkelaar zegt dat het zelf-gecreëerde genre zelf wel doorontwikkeld zal worden in toekomstige games.
"We created the genre, we own the genre, and we want to show that Heavy Rain was not a coincidence or a lucky shot - that it was really something that makes sense and that we can build on."
"But at the same time I didn't want to make a sequel. I made that very clear before knowing whether the game would be a success or a failure, because I want to show that it's really a genre. Which means that you can use a similar drama to tell any type of story in any genre and in any style."
"So, we are going to explore different directions. Still very dark, still for adults, but completely different from Heavy Rain. We want to satisfy our fans, but we want to surprise them too. That's our challenge. We continue to explore how we can go further with interactive drama, working on emotion and interactive storytelling for a mature audience, but with a very different story and a different approach"
Het is nog een verrassing wat voor soort games Quantic Dream in de toekomst gaat ontwikkelen, maar Heavy Rain 2 wordt het dus in ieder geval niet.
