The description says this is a prototype running in real-time on Playstation 3, so it may be assumed their new game will be for current gen PS, not PS4. Cage says the demo actually is already a year old and Kara has no relation to their new game, it's similar to the tech demo for Heavy Rain in that regard.

During a talk on emotion in games, David Cage unvealed a new tech demo running in realtime on Playstation 3. Named KARA, it demonstrates our studio's ability to realize full performance capture. In other words, to motion capture in one single take the body and facial movements of actors and to record their voices, with a very high degree of precision. Kara runs on an early version of our new proprietary PS3 engine.
These technologies are currently being used in the development of our upcoming project - an exclusive title for Playstation 3 - which is yet to be announced.

I suspect that at this point QD's putting out this video less as a "tech demo" and more as "heads up, we're working on something" sort of vignette. And as far as I'm concerned it's working. As I recall I'm rather not in the TTLG majority on this, but I loved Heavy Rain and am definitely looking forward to whatever these guys put out next. Hell, I'm actually a bit disappointed that this tech demo's not supposed to be related to the actual game 'cause I could see QD make something good of it.

Yes, it will be for current gen. From their site:
