We've been waiting all month for Quantic Dream to announce its January news, but it looks like we may have been looking in the wrong place. While a PlayStation 4 port of Beyond: Two Souls has seemed all but inevitable for some time now, a new website suggests that it may be Fahrenheit (known as Indigo Prophecy overseas) that could be making a comeback.
A link to a website named www.achillingfeeling.com was posted on NeoGAF earlier this evening, which includes a countdown to 28th January. The domain was registered in Paris – which is where the Heavy Rain developer is based – and seems to allude to its PlayStation 2 title's original tagline: "Guilt is a chilling feeling."
Moreover, some of the words used in the background of the teaser page match up with those employed on the game's box. Of course, this is an unexpected curveball, as we were starting to get psyched at the prospect of seeing Ellen Page and Willem Dafoe rendered on next-gen hardware, but we may need to re-tune our expectations depending on what this turns out to be.
Exactly what could the website be referring to, though? A sequel seems unlikely given that director David Cage tends to prefer new stories, but a port from the PS2 to the PS4 would be odd as well. We know that Quantic Dream is working on a next-gen title as part of a three game exclusivity arrangement with Sony, but this is believed to be similar in concept to the Kara demo.
We're stumped. Fortunately, we'll find out exactly what's going on in just over a week's time. Would you be willing to chill out with a Fahrenheit remaster? Keep yourself warm in the comments section below.

If this turns out to be true I'd buy no question. I remember picking this up day 1 when it was first released. One could hope right?
I wonder if it could be a smartphone/tablet port?
yessssssssssssssssssss i talked about this much better than two souls
If I see the word remaster again I may have to remove my eyes from the sockets they reside. I honestly can't take it anymore. Their are only 2 I'd like to see and they are games most people missed out on anyway, Shenmue 1-2. With all these remasters I feel companies are being lazy rather than creative with their time.
They must have redone all the graphics. It would look hideous as a ps4 game the way it is lol
@Madd_Hatter401 - thank you couldn't agree more. I feel that developers are getting lazy and looking for a easy buck by regurgitating old ****. Please stop with the All Remasters.... I played X game it when it came out and don't need to retread the same old ground.
Language - get2sammyb
@Fallout09-mk @Madd_Hatter401 I can see it both ways. On the one hand, I understand why people are fed up of these. However, you could also argue that they expose classics to a new audience, help to fund newer games, and don't take up many resources to develop.
I am really hoping this is so. Indigo Prophecy was one of my absolute favorite games of all time. Much better than all the other later QD releases imho. Aside from GTA5, which I never got to play on PS3, this is the one port I definitely want.
Ehhh, I'm split on this. I'm ok with a remaster mostly because it's something not from last gen, and because I think it would look great if it were remastered. But personally I didn't really like the game. I'll admit that the interaction was good, but the plot was kinda....odd. To me it felt like a wasted idea and the game's presentation made some scenes (like when Lucas gets in fights or the part where his apartment is basically attacking him) look silly.
I'm not tearing it apart. The game had good ideas and silly ones. My problem's mostly with David Cage though. He seems to take himself so seriously but games usually just get weird.
However, I would like to see what it look like remastered. Maybe next gen tech would actually make it look serious.
Probably set up by the French cousin of the guy that set up the fake Fallout 4 countdown.
I remember getting Fahrenheit day 1 after going in to buy another new title and leaving with that instead on recommendation. Ended up being my 2nd favourite Xbox game. It also teaches valuable life lessons to a 16 year old, like don't drink and take drugs (paracetamol) at the same time; most memorable game death ever.
This is better news than getting that Ellen Page game on PS4. Way better, because I'd actually re-purchase this game, so long as there are upgrades to the original and this isnt just a straight port.
This would be amazing if it's true. I remember reading reviews of the game when it came out and thinking it looked great, but never having any money to go and get it (or when I did have money, just not being able to find it anywhere). A chance to play this, with a lovely fresh coat of new gen paint to boot, would be brilliant!
I've never even heard of this game before, will probably read some reviews before I'd ever consider playing it.
