The Spiritual Successor to Fahrenheit (Indigo Prophecy) and Heavy Rain by Quantic Dream, revealed at E3 2012. The story, covering the span of fifteen years, centers on Jodie Holmes (modeled after and played by Ellen Page), a young woman who tries to uncover the mystery of a strange Poltergeist-like presence that serves as her protector, as well as Nathan Dawkins (Willem Dafoe), a researcher and her surrogate father. The central topic is what happens to one after death. Like its immediate predecessor, Beyond: Two Souls is a PlayStation 3 exclusive.

See also Kara for the tech demo produced in preparation for this game.

Tropes used in Beyond: Two Souls include:

Bald Women: Jodie sports a buzzcut upon her introduction.
Dashed Plotline: The story covers three main periods of Jodie's life: her childhood, her teen years, and her CIA work as an adult.
Extraordinarily Empowered Girl: Jodie has the ability to see spirits.
Ink Suit Actor: Ellen Page as Jodie and Willem Dafoe as Dawkins.
Poltergeist: The spirit that Jodie interacts with, who she addresses as "Ivan".
