Live Interactive Series Silent Hill: Ascension Debuts October 31
/
Genvid’s upcoming interactive series Silent Hill Ascension will debut on October 31, 9 PM ET, and has been picked up by Sony Pictures Entertainment to bring the series’ weekly episodes on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, the Bravia Core app for Bravia TVs, and select Xperia smartphones through the Xperia app.
Silent Hill: Ascension is an interactive series in which the audience gets to choose the outcome of the show’s story, and whatever happens towards the end of the series will impact the canon of Silent Hill.
Genvid CEO Jacob Navok reiterates that Ascension is not a game but “an interactive streaming series that will change as the audience makes decisions together”
Here’s an overview of the series from Genvid reported by Gematsu.
Silent Hill: Ascension is a mind-bending, interactive streaming series following the complex lives of two families in peril, linked by a series of unnerving visions and terrifying monstrosities that hound them to the brink of damnation.
Audiences will be taken to a troubled rust-belt town in Pennsylvania called Hope’s Junction, rebuilding itself after a fatal steel mill accident decimated its economy. Another death shakes the community, and Rachel Hernandez is held responsible. Halfway around the world, in a dying fishing village in Norway named Stilledalen, the uneasy peace of the Johansen family is upended when their matriarch, Ingrid, dies under suspicious circumstances.
Each character’s survival depends on overcoming their darkest impulses and painful pasts, as they confront their own horrors and discover the mysterious links that connect them. Will these characters find redemption, suffering or damnation? You will decide their fate.
Silent Hill: Ascension is one of the many Silent Hill projects as they also announced a Silent Hill 2 remake, a new movie, Silent Hill f, and Silent Hill Townfall.
It’s easy to describe Animal Well as a puzzle-focused Metroidvania eschewing traditional combat, where nearly every room is a puzzle room, but that falls so far short of describing just what this game is and how expertly it defies genre and classification that it feels like a disservice. Animal Well is a paragon of the art form, a game that simply must be experienced.
