A narrative adventure about AI androids developing consciousness and making moral choices.

Description

Detroit: Become Human is a narrative-driven game that explores themes of artificial intelligence, consciousness, and humanity through the story of androids gaining sentience. It features a branching narrative with thousands of choices affecting the story. Play through three distinct characters with different perspectives, where a decision tree visualizes the consequences of your choices. As androids develop emotions and consciousness, the game tackles themes of discrimination, free will, and what it truly means to be human. With a mix of QTEs and dialogue choices, the game offers multiple endings based on decisions made throughout the journey. Flowcharts allow players to replay and explore different paths. Featuring stunning graphics with motion capture from professional actors, this title from Quantic Dream—the studio known for narrative excellence—raises questions about AI rights and the treatment of synthetic beings. Originally a PS4 exclusive and later released on PC, it demonstrates gaming as a powerful medium for exploring AI ethics, influenced by sci-fi classics like Blade Runner and I, Robot.
