DC Heroes United: A New Interactive Mobile Series from the Makers of Silent Hill: Ascension
Ever scoffed at comic book decisions, thinking you could do better? Now's your chance! DC Heroes United, a new interactive mobile series, lets you guide the actions of iconic heroes like Batman and Superman. Make weekly choices that directly impact the narrative, shaping the fate of the Justice League.
This isn't DC's first foray into interactive storytelling, but it's a significant undertaking for Genvid, the studio behind Silent Hill: Ascension. DC Heroes United streams on Tubi, offering viewers a unique experience watching the Justice League's origin story and influencing its outcome. Your choices will affect the plot and even determine who lives and dies.
The series unfolds on Earth-212, a DC universe still grappling with the emergence of superheroes. While Silent Hill's darker tone differs greatly, DC Heroes United's inherently lighthearted nature may be a better fit for Genvid's interactive format. The series also boasts a standalone roguelite mobile game, a significant improvement over its predecessor.
Infinite Possibilities
Genvid's approach to interactive storytelling deserves a fair assessment. The inherent absurdity of some comic book plots lends itself well to this format. DC Heroes United offers a fun, engaging experience, and its bundled mobile game adds considerable value. The first episode is available now on Tubi. Will it succeed? Only time will tell.
