Sažetak
This thesis focuses on the narrative development in video games on the examples of the Metro universe games and the Arkhamverse. The thesis begins with an introduction and the overview of the history and the current state of the young science of game studies, its standings towards the theory of narrative and the way how the narrative is built within the video games. The games that are further analyzed are examples of transmedia storytelling, which is a method of storytelling that includes different media, each telling one fragment of an ultimately unified story. After providing the background information on these transmediations, the thesis presents an analysis of how game designers incorporated the narrative into the new interactive medium. The thesis ends with the conclusion of the analysis and the views of the position of narrative within the young and aspiring media of video games currently and in the times to come.
