Silent Hill: Ascension will explore tried-and-true themes with a community-led, episodic approach. A new behind-the-scenes look at Silent Hill: Ascension clarifies the game’s take on serial, interactive storytelling and its exploration of the franchise’s mythology and themes.
As previously revealed, viewers of Silent Hill: Ascension will watch episodes and make decisions simultaneously as part of live “story events.” Decisions will be permanent, which means that, unlike other games of this kind, viewers will not be able to go back and see how a different decision would affect the story. Fans can view episodes after live “story events,” for an as yet undetermined amount of time, and their decisions will count as part of the “voting process.”
