DC Heroes United: A New Interactive Mobile Series from the Creators of Silent Hill: Ascension
Ever wished you could rewrite your favorite comic book? Now you can! DC Heroes United, a new interactive mobile series, lets you guide the actions of iconic heroes like Batman and Superman. This isn't your typical comic book experience; it's a weekly decision-making game where your choices shape the narrative and even determine the fate of beloved characters.
DC Heroes United streams on Tubi, offering viewers a chance to witness the Justice League’s origin story. Unlike passive viewing, you actively participate, influencing the plot through your choices, impacting who lives and dies. While DC has experimented with interactive narratives before (remember the Jason Todd "death" poll?), this marks Genvid's first foray into the superhero genre. The series unfolds on Earth-212, a unique DC continuity still grappling with the emergence of superheroes.
A Fair Shake for Genvid?
Genvid, known for the controversial Silent Hill: Ascension, might find more success in this lighter, more action-oriented genre. Superhero comics often embrace over-the-top action and humor, a far cry from Silent Hill's darker themes. Furthermore, DC Heroes United boasts a proper roguelite mobile game component, a significant improvement over its predecessor.
The first episode is available now on Tubi. Will this interactive series take flight, or will it falter? Only time will tell.
