Konami and the teams behind Silent Hill: Ascension released a new trailer for the “massively interactive live event”
The series follows multiple characters from around the world being tormented by the mysterious town of Silent Hill, which has taken on a new form as it no longer embodies a single location in the world, but as a kind of darkness that seeps into entire towns, drawing its inhabitants in and threatening to consume everyone within by trapping them in a cycle of their own guilt and fears.
Unlike other Silent Hill titles, this isn’t a game but rather an interactive series where viewers from around the world can influence the events unfolding on the stream, with its canon left completely in the hands of its viewers.

The project is an interactive story experience, where viewers can watch and interact with its world as it is broadcasted live through multiple platforms.
