Abstract

he concept of multimodality is examined within the fields of linguistics and semiotics. The term refers to the combination of many semiotic modes, such as language and music, within a communication. In this study investigates the modes and functions of interactive functions in in-game advertising using a multimodal discourse analysis approach. The data consists of screen captures from the Cat and Soup game's in-game advertising. The multimodality of in-game advertising consists of linguistic, visual, and gestural modalities, as well as an interactive function in terms of contact, social distance, and point of view, which establishes connections between the character and the viewer.
