Heavy Rain Walkthrough Part 1 - Intro
2Heavy Rain is a cinematic psychological thriller from game developer Quantic Dream that was originally released for the PlayStation 3 in February 2010. Dealing with a range of adult themes, the game revolves around a plot and narrative threads that explore a moral proposition. You assume the role of multiple characters with very different backgrounds, motivations, and skills in a world where each player decision affects what will follow.
The game focuses on four different characters: Ethan Mars, a father and the main protagonist; Scott Shelby, a private eye; Norman Jayden, an FBI agent; and Madison Paige, a photojournalist. They are very different characters and do not know each other at the beginning of the game, but are all connected in the sense that they all have an interest in the game's main antagonist, the Origami Killer.
A remastered version of Heavy Rain for the PlayStation 4 was released on March 1, 2016, including graphics improvement. Beyond: Two Souls is also included in disc versions. On December 4, 2018, the PS4 versions of these two games and Detroit: Become Human were released as a compilation pack called the Quantic Dream Collection.
On March 20, 2019, Quantic Dream announced via Twitter that Heavy Rain, along with Beyond: Two Souls and Detroit: Become Human, would be released for PC later in the year via the Epic Games Store, where it would remain exclusive to for a year before being released elsewhere.

On May 25, 2020, the demos of all three games became available on Steam. Quantic Dream announced via their YouTube channel that the full games would be available on Steam on June 18, 2020.
