Beyond: Two Souls
About the Game
The narrative focuses on the life of a young girl, Jodie, who has a special ability to see or feel things beyond this world. The game doesn't follow Jodie's life chronologically and jumps from point to point in her lifetime to give players a better picture of who she is and what she can do. Ever since she was a child, she has shared a bond with an entity she calls Aiden. That entity isn't controlled by her, but the two of them cannot go separate ways.
Story & Setting
As the story progresses, Aiden will be able to possess or even kill certain characters.
Gameplay & Core Systems
During gameplay, player can switch between Jodie and Aiden at any time. While controlling Jodie, player can explore the surroundings, interact with objects, talk to other characters or fight if in such a situation. While controlling Aiden, players can float around up to a limited distance from Jodie, and sometimes move or trash certain objects.
