Update #1
For people still wondering how this game plays. This GameSpot Gameplay Analysis video should give you a good impression (slight spoilers in the second half)
Key features and differences to Heavy Rain:
- Mostly 3rd person camera now. Slightly directed and sways a bit to points of high interest, but never too far away from your character
- Walking/running entirely realized with the left analogue stick. No more R2 tank controls like in Heavy Rain
- Interacting with objects is still handled with the right stick, but no weird motions required anymore and everything can be triggered with a simple up/down flick
- Combat also works around this idea, effectively making the need to remember all the buttons irrelevant
- Fight scenes only use the right analogue stick now and general action sequences require direct input (e.g. running through a forest while chased and you have to find a way out)
- Different difficulty settings just like in Heavy Rain, hardest one requires more inputs or has stricter timing, easy mode (for non-gamers) streamlines most of it
- During 90% of the game you can switch between Jodie and Aiden (the entity) at any point by pressing the triangle button
- You solve puzzles with Aiden by manipulating the environment and possessing people. You control him freely with both sticks like a first person camera and you can float through objects and walls
- Dialogue choices similar to Heavy Rain, combined with branching paths
- Multiple endings
- There are several free-roaming areas where you can use vehicles and horses to explore your environment freely
