Matt Jordan Smitt, Pageboy's head of development and production, stated the team's intention to honor the game's legacy while incorporating fresh perspectives. He emphasized the exploration of survival and the impact of crucial decisions as central themes.

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 centers on Jodie Holmes, a young woman with psychic abilities and her connection to a spirit named Aiden. Its non-linear narrative, showcasing different life stages, and its star-studded cast, including Page and Willem Dafoe, were notable aspects.

Cage confirmed his collaboration with Page on the TV series, although the extent of his involvement remains unspecified. He expressed his enthusiasm for the collaboration and confidence in Page's ability to bring a unique vision to the television adaptation.
