DC Heroes United: A New Interactive Mobile Series from the Makers of Silent Hill: Ascension
Ever wished you could steer the fate of Batman and Superman? Now you can! DC Heroes United, a new interactive series for mobile devices, lets you make weekly choices that directly impact the story of iconic DC heroes. This isn't your typical comic book reading experience; it's a chance to put your superhero strategy to the test.
The series streams on Tubi, chronicling the Justice League's early days – Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, and more – as they unite for the first time. Your decisions influence the plot, even determining who lives or dies, echoing DC's history of interactive storytelling (remember the Jason Todd fate line?).
This marks Genvid's (the team behind Silent Hill: Ascension) first foray into this genre. The action unfolds on Earth-212, a universe newly grappling with the emergence of superheroes.
A Fair Shake for Genvid?
While Genvid's previous work may have been divisive, DC Heroes United offers a different opportunity. The inherent silliness and over-the-top nature of some superhero comics may be a better fit for Genvid's interactive approach than the darker tones of Silent Hill.
The series also includes a standalone roguelite mobile game, a significant improvement over its predecessor. The first episode is now available on Tubi. Will DC Heroes United take flight, or will it stumble? Only time will tell.
