It talks about how there are so many possibilities for each scene in the game and the fact that there is no real “game over” screen. If your character dies that drives another narrative in the game and drives the story further based on the events that take place in another part of the story. Based on that it’s pretty obvious that there will be multiple characters to take control over throughout the game.

Gamespot described the demo shown at the GC had multiple outcomes.

Madison (the chick they keep showing off with the wet face and riding the motorcycle) sneaks into an home where she finds dead bodies. They describe watch several different scenarios where Madison escapes before the killer knows she’s there. Another where she hides, is found out but makes it away leaving her helmet behind (which the killer could use to track her down I guess) and another where she actually fends off attacks from the killer. But, again, she could be killed and yet the game doesn’t stop there but continues on. So again, there’s obviously more than one character in this story similar to “Indigo Prophecy”.

I wish they had an actual release date but either way this is a no brainer to purchase.
