Sony’s giving Heavy Rain some special edition treatment and selling the game at a Greatest Hits price.
David Cage may maintain that folks in the United States don’t like his games, but that doesn’t mean Heavy Rain wasn’t critically acclaimed and didn’t sell well (in fact, gamers bought over 2 million copies). Sony seems to be aware of the fact that the title is truly something special, though, and it’s just announced that the game is getting a Director’s Cut re-release.
According to the PlayStation Blog, Heavy Rain: Director’s Cut is going to have a ton of extras included within:
? Complete, original game, Heavy Rain
? Heavy Rain Chronicles: Episode 1 – The Taxidermist DLC
? Heavy Rain Original Videogame Score by award-winning film and television composer, Normand Corbeil (16 tracks)
? New front-end menu and interface with built-in Move support
? A series of 8 “Making of” Bonus Videos
? Three Dynamic Themes (Heavy Rain, Heavy Rain ARI Forest, Heavy Rain ARI Mars)
? 15 additional pieces of new concept art
? 2 bonus Trailers (Thank You Trailer, Love Trailer)
Additionally, SCEA will make Heavy Rain Crime Scene Dynamic Theme free via the PlayStation Network. This offer will become effective when the game starts to ship on November 8th. Oh, and before you ask: The game will still sell for $29.99.
