As one PlayStation 4 exclusive release date saga comes to a conclusion, so begins another: Quantic Dream has doubled down on Detroit: Become Human’s spring launch window. The French developer’s been saying that the androids-against-ordinary-folk adventure will launch in the spring for some time, but it reconfirmed the target in a tweet to a fan.
Of course, the French developer finds itself underfire in the media at the moment. A slew of local reports aimed to expose the company’s “toxic” work environment recently; the developer denies any wrongdoing. It’s also come in for criticism due to a domestic violence scene, so we suspect there’ll be a fair few marketing managers at Sony scratching their heads over how to promote this right now.

My wallet!!! Just dont release this too close to GoW. In a battle of Kratos vs Kara Kratos always wins.
Day one dont care about all the complaining.
@Savino A shame for the hundreds of people who worked on the game and had absolutely nothing to do with the reports, no?
They'll almost certainly be the ones who lose their jobs first when the game flops, after all.
@get2sammyb i don't think this game gonna be flop because it look great and better than Beyond Two Soul but it gonna be great game like Heavy Rain
@3Above i hope it better not release in April but it likely release in May but worry about Red Dead Redemption 2 gonna smash this game's sale during May if RDR 2 release in May. Spider-Man could be out in June after E3 is over. this game should be out next month or March but not happen though.. If God of War don't release on April 20 then Detroit might be out in April because Cory Barlog said God of War release in Early 2018 : January to March but April 20 is in Spring, not Early 2018 : that's weird right ?
@porhawj2016 I don't think it will flop either. I'm just pointing out how silly it is "boycotting" a game because of a few (potential) bad eggs, when hundreds of talented, hard working good eggs will have dedicated the last three or four years of their life to making this.
@get2sammyb yep do you think April 20 is weird for God of War to release on that date ? Santa Monica Studio said Early 2018, not Spring 2018.. Early 2018 is January to March.. April 20 is in Spring. That date look too way off to me
@get2sammyb it really is funny just because of some allegations which nobody knows whether they're true or not, people are now on operation screw everyone working there
@DLB3
I'm really looking forward to this one. I hope it's one of Dave's finest.
Still buying Day 1. What's in the news hasn't changed my opinion or excitement for the game one bit.
@Savino We don't know all the facts, I would just trust a couple of news outlets in this day and age.
Detroit june (spring) and maybe spiderman august (summer) then followed by two 1st party games dreams and days gone in fall and holidays..
Preordered a long time ago, don’t care about the accusations. Unless one day I hear David Cage’s voice actually saying something racist/prejudice or homophobic, then the rumors are just that– rumors. Until then WHEN’S THIS GAME COMING OUT
This is Day 1 purchase for me.
My concerns continue that these big 2018 releases will come out too close together ...
Detroit is day one for me and i really hope that this game is a success.
Complaining about a scene in the game that you didn't like seeing is so stupid. It's MEANT to make you uncomfortable. They aren't advocating domestic abuse.
I haven't read the allegations about the work environment because, honestly, there are just so many of these stories I don't have time or appetite for them all.
