Heavy Rain combines exploration, dialogue and dramatic action scenes with a powerful and compelling narrative. Taking control of four different characters, each with distinctive backgrounds and motivations, you will take part in the race against time to find a killer.

As you play the game, your actions and choices will have a tangible impact on the fates of these characters, and the way that the plot unfolds. Your every decision can have significant and unforeseen consequences - making the gameplay experience uniquely dramatic and engrossing. To take an extreme example - if one of your characters dies during the game due to your actions, it isn't 'Game Over'. Instead, the plot continues using the other characters, and that character's death becomes part of the story - influencing the attitudes of other characters, and affecting what leads and paths can be taken.

Heavy Rain is a game that focuses on drama and emotional response, not violence and repetition; on making difficult decisions in the heat of the moment, and dealing with the consequences...
