The Quantic Dream game that is available on PlayStation 4 and PC seems to be getting attention on Twitch, too.

The French studio’s game got recently a boost via the Steam release, as the Epic Games Store-exclusivity ended, making it available on the competitor platform, along with two other games (Heavy Rain and Beyond: Two Souls). This is why David Cage’s studio can celebrate how the story of the androids and the humans now hit five million sales, which isn’t too shabby of a result.

The press release also mentions the Twitch Community Play extension that was used by nearly 500 streamers on Amazon’s popular website. The real-time polls have registered more than 1.5 million votes until now via this extension.

„Launching Detroit: Become Human on Steam has been a delightful experience for us. The response we’re seeing has been incredibly positive, in particular in Asian markets. We are also thrilled by the response garnered by the concomitant release of our Community Play extension for streamers and viewers on Twitch, which elevated a fundamentally single-player game into a social experience,” Guillaume de Fondaumière, Co-CEO and Head of Publishing at Quantic Dream, stated.

„I could immerse myself in streaming and connect with my audience much better thanks to the Community Play Twitch extension. It was refreshing to play while the audience led me to whole new situations and scenario branches that I would not have discovered playing on my own. The overlay interface fits so well with Detroit’s art direction that some of my viewers thought it was part of the game itself. I had so much fun that I played three more days until reaching the end of the game,” Korean streamer Kumikomii added.

Congratulations. But what about Quantic Dream’s ex-employees claiming the studio has a toxic working environment?
