The Grévin museum will host a Detroit: Become Human area
Even though it's is normally interested in men and women of flesh and blood, whether they belong to the history of France or international popular culture, the Grévin museum sometimes lends some of its wax reserves to fictitious characters. However, video games have almost never been represented since a certain Lara Croft obtained her statue at the dawn of the 21st century, in 1999. 20 years later, the iconic Parisian establishment will set up a futuristic area dedicated to Detroit: Become Human.
It's Sony Interactive Entertainment, which stills owns the IP -and therefore the licence to the characters- despite the end of its partnership with Quantic Dream, which sent the press release: from June 28, 2019, visitors to the Grévin museum can visit a of 75 sqm space replicating the CyberLife android store that is part of the commercial landscape in David Cage's latest game. It's more precisely the characters of Kara (Valorie Curry) and Connor (Bryan Dechart) who will be entitled to their wax statue, in a space where "an interactive and immersive scenography will guide the visitor in the shop to help them choose the most suitable Android for their needs ", we were told.
At SIE France and Quantic Dream, we obviously welcome what is perceived as a strong sign of cultural recognition. "I am delighted that we can give new life to the world created by David Cage and the Quantic Dream studio at the Musée Grévin, and video games are once again showing their popularity and their place within such an institution that brings together the most iconic characters on the planet' said Philippe Cardon, Sony Interactive Entertainment Vice for Southern Europe. "Quantic Dream has always defended the idea that video games are a form of culture in their own right. To see our characters and the themes of Detroit: Become Human enter a museum as prestigious as Grévin, today, is a formidable recognition for our media", adds David Cage, founder and director of Quantic Dream.
