      When Worlds Collide speaks to leading writers and narrative designers in the video game industry to look at how video games are taking age-old storytelling techniques and twisting them into new shapes.

      From genre to character, from dialogue to performance, from emergent narrative to transmedia storytelling and the Metaverse, video game writer and academic Colin Harvey explores the particular challenges and manifold possibilities this new medium offers storytellers and worldbuilders.

      Interactive, spatial and connected, the influence of game storytelling is spreading way beyond the screen, into wider culture and society, throwing up new ethical challenges in its wake. Colin Harvey takes us on a journey through these myriad compelling domains, tracking their evolution through pixels and polygons to a future in which the real and virtual are increasingly entwined.
