Silent Hill: Ascension announcement teaser trailer Konami Genvid Behaviour Interactive dj2 Entertainment Bad Robot Games

Silent Hill: Ascension Delivers Live, Real-Time Horror to Millions in 2023

At the Silent Hill Transmission showcase, Konami and developers Genvid, Bad Robot Games, Behaviour Interactive, and dj2 Entertainment shared the announcement teaser trailer for Silent Hill: Ascension, which goes “live” in 2023. Genvid CEO Jacob Navok described the project as “a new kind of Silent Hill, an experience that you haven’t seen up until now.” Impressively, they already nabbed the Ascension.com URL. But what is Ascension, exactly? Well, it’s a “live, real-time interactive series where millions of fans will watch together as the chilling story unfolds.” Viewers watching will decide how the story unfolds, and there will be no redos: What happens happens. Apparently, this is something Genvid has done before with The Walking Dead.
