Matt Jordan Smitt, Pageboy's head of development and production, emphasized the team's commitment to honoring the game's legacy while incorporating fresh perspectives. He noted the exploration of survival and the impact of crucial decisions as central to the narrative.

Originally released for PlayStation 3 in 2013, Beyond: Two Souls later appeared on PlayStation 4 (2015) and PC (2019). Directed and written by Quantic Dream's David Cage, the game follows Jodie Holmes, a young woman with psychic abilities and her connection to a spirit named Aiden. Its nonlinear storyline, spanning various stages of Jodie's life, and its star-studded cast (including Page and Willem Dafoe) were key aspects of the game's success.

Cage confirmed his collaboration with Page on the TV series, although the specifics of his involvement remain unclear. He expressed his excitement about working with Page again, praising his performance in the game and confidence in his ability to translate the story to television. Cage also acknowledged the game's significance for millions of players.
