Silent Hill Ascension is a 'massively interactive live event' developed by the studio behind The Walking Dead: Last Mile.
It's taken them a while, but Konami finally revealed its plans for Silent Hill today. Three videogames and a film are on the way, and alongside them a project called Silent Hill Ascension was announced. In Konami's words it's a"massively interactive live event", with art and sound design provided by J.J. Abrams' Bad Robot Games studio.
According to what I can glean from the announcement, it's basically a Silent Hill story where the events are decided by the audience. Think Until Dawn or The Quarry, except the narrative is shaped by the hive mind.
Words like"wild","epic" and"innovative" are bandied around in the announcement , but it does sound fascinating. The tech at the heart of Ascension comes from Genvid Technologies, who apparently coined the phrase"massively interactive live event" . The most notable example of Genvid's work is The Walking Dead: Last Mile, which is a Facebook affair.
What we saw of Ascension today was minimal: a small text message exchange between some panicked companions is intercut with a shadowy baddie wielding some kind of violent stick. The execution is what will matter: a Twitch Plays style approach to a Silent Hill narrative could be really interesting. It's coming in 2023, but no word yet on what platforms.
