The player interacts with the game by performing actions highlighted on screen related to motions on the controller, and in some cases, performing a series of quick time events during fast-paced action sequences. The players decisions and actions during the game will affect the narrative; the main characters can be killed, and certain actions may lead to different scenes and endings.

In addition players can also use the PlayStation Move controller to perform the quick time events in the game in September 2010 when a patch for the game is released enabling Move support.
