Thatgamecompany's latest venture, 'The Two Embers: Part One,' merges video games and film by introducing a short animated film within the game Sky: Children of the Light. Unlike other adaptations, it offers a shared viewing experience through innovative in-game streaming technology. The film's narrative centers around an orphaned child and a manatee facing darkness, and utilizes universal themes of grief and kindness, making it accessible to a wide audience. This ambitious project represents a new frontier in transmedia storytelling and will continue with a second installment.
In a first-of-its-kind fusion of film and gameplay, the cinematic in-game movie introduces new playable content and uses innovative in-game streaming for a collective simultaneous viewing experience.
The film follows the journey of an orphaned child and a wounded manatee as they navigate a world unraveling under the threat of darkness.
