‘Beyond: Two Souls’, ‘Heavy Rain’ Get PS4 Release Dates!

Briefly: I cannot wait to play through these again.

As divisive as gamers seem to be over the titles crafted by Quantic Dream (Indigo Prophecy, Heavy Rain, Beyond: Two Souls), the deep (and occasionally convoluted) plots, cinematic-as-hell gameplay (well, if you can call it that), and incredible production values always keep me coming back for more.

Beyond: Two Souls was a late PS3 highlight for me, and I’m beyond excited to finally know just when I’ll be able to give it another go. The PS4 re-releases of both Beyond: Two Souls and Heavy Rain were announced back in June, and Sony today revealed the release dates for both games.

Beyond: Two Souls will launch next week on November 24th for a cool $29.99, with a variety of enhancements to the original game, including:

-Enhanced 1080p graphics including motion blur, bloom and depth of field effects, as well as improved lighting and shadows. The game also makes use of the DualShock 4 speaker to improve immersion when playing as the Entity
-Decisions are highlighted at the end of each scene and compared with those made by other players
You can now play the game in chronological order right from the start – a much requested feature in the PS3 version!
-Increased difficulty in a number of fight scenes, combined with improved controls for action sequence
-Includes the “Enhanced Experiments” DLC in the base game

We’ll be waiting a little longer for Heavy Rain however (giving you a good amount of time to catch up on that backlog), as Heavy Rain will launch on PSN on March 1st. Sony hasn’t detailed just what enhancements that release will see (or just how much it’ll cost), but you can bet I’ll be Pressing X to Jason all over again when it hits!

Will you be playing these games again? Or was once enough? Be sure to let us know in the comments below!
