Detroit: Become Human

Detroit: Become Human is an adventure game developed by Quantic Dream and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment for the PlayStation 4, released worldwide on 25 May 2018.

The game takes place in 2038, where androids are commonplace and serve humans. The plot revolves around three androids: Kara, who escapes the home she was serving in to explore her newfound sentience and protect a young girl; Connor, whose job it is to hunt down deviant androids; and Markus, who devotes himself to releasing the androids from servitude.

Detroit: Become Human was derived from the 2012 tech demo Kara.


 * Abusive Parents: Todd, Kara's owner, abuses his daughter Alice.
 * Alien Blood: Thirium (people call it "blue blood") is what powers androids.
 * Diegetic Interface: The androids' Stat-O-Vision.
 * Fantastic Racism: Androids are called as objects by most people.
 * Ink Suit Actor: As expected from Quantic Dream. For instance, Kara looks just like her voice/motion capture actress Valorie Curry.
 * Humans Are the Real Monsters: Humans abuse and berate androids.
 * Killed Off for Real: Depending on the player's choices, any of the three main characters can die and the story will keep going.
 * No Celebrities Were Harmed: The president looks a lot like Hillary Clinton.
 * Offing the Offspring: Depending on the choice taken,
 * Self-Made Orphan: Depending on the choices,
 * Shrinking Violet: Alice keeps to herself, hiding from her father and Kara when they are here.
 * The Revolution Will Not Be Civilized: Depending on the choices.
 * Uncanny Valley:
 * Androids don't quite look like humans.
 * One of the magazines mentions android functions, like bleeding blue blood and talking instead of wireless communication, that were designed to avert the trope.
