Cage confirms Heavy Rain Demo

David Cage has confirmed to G4 that next year’s PS3 standout title “Heavy Rain” will indeed have a playable demo, what the contents of it will be however, is not yet confirmed:

“We are currently working on a demo, which is a real challenge. Finding one scene that can convey what we are trying to achieve with Heavy Rain is something really difficult. If we show an action scene, some players will think that this is what Heavy Rain is all about, and it is the same thing if we show an exploration scene. The problem is that each scene of the game offers contextual game play, which is something very difficult to explain and convey in a single demo. Demos are often a double-edge thing: if you don’t release one, players may think that you have something to hide.”

While we are fairly certain this can only end in failure, we applaud David Cage’s bravery. We found the game to be quite fantastic.

Heavy Rain is coming exclusively to PlayStation 3 in spring 2010.
