[GetsuFumaDen: Undying Moon](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1323470/GetsuFumaDen_Undying_Moon/), a well received update of a vintage Konami game, and the apparent care taken with the forthcoming [Suikoden 1 and 2 remasters](https://www.polygon.com/23356523/suikoden-1-and-2-remasters-trailer-ps4-xbox-one-pc-switch) — but the Silent Hill Transmission all but makes it official: Konami, as an entity that seems to care about making cool video games, is back. When news first broke that Bloober Team (Layers of Fear, The Medium) was partnering with Konami and most likely working on Silent Hill, it was easy to fear a return to where the series had left off in 2012 — working with decidedly mid-range, journeyman Western studios like Climax, Vatra, and Double Helix. Considering that safe, known quantities like Until Dawn developer Supermassive are known to have been involved in the Silent Hill pitch process, it’s great to see Konami take a risk on such creators and pursue an unconventional development set-up to realize their vision. [Silent Hill 2](https://www.polygon.com/23413363/silent-hill-2-remake-release-date-ps5-pc-konami) leads the way, which allows Konami to remind fans of, and introduce new players to, the series at its very best, and carries minimal creative risk. Here Konami is acknowledging the huge innovation that smaller, indie developers have brought to the horror space in recent years, as well as a smart willingness to see Silent Hill move across genres and markets, and potentially into experimental forms, within gaming. But it also gave the publisher a chance to show that it had all bases covered, and that it understands both the economic realities and creative opportunities of modern franchise management. from the PlayStation Store, making it almost completely inaccessible if you didn’t already have it installed; and conducted [a protracted and undignified break-up](https://www.polygon.com/2015/12/16/10220356/hideo-kojima-konami-explainer-metal-gear-solid-silent-hills) with its star creator Kojima that included [removing his name](https://www.polygon.com/2015/3/19/8257283/metal-gear-solid-konami-branding) from promotional materials for Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain and forbidding him from accepting an award for it at The Game Awards. But the damage done to the publisher’s reputation with players — not to mention to its ability and indeed willingness to make games — was severe. The same thinking is presumably behind the most dubious announcement of the bunch, interactive drama series Silent Hill: Ascension. Its last major game launch — 2021’s eFootball, a rebranding of its ailing Pro Evolution Soccer series — was an [unmitigated disaster](https://www.polygon.com/22704246/konami-efootball-pes-launch-glitches-steam). [Silent Hill Transmission showcase](https://www.polygon.com/23412400/silent-hill-transmission-showcase-how-to-watch), it was widely accepted that Konami, as a video game publisher, had fallen from grace to a state of near-total irrelevance.

It’s understood that viewers will be able to chat and change scenes and outcomes while they watch each episode.

The Silent Hill 2 PS5 remake trailer reminded me that it and Resident Evil really love their big blond babies.

They fumble in the dark with empty heads and, yes, they survive their horrors, but with blinders on. [24-year-old girlfriends](https://www.newsweek.com/facet-check-leonardo-dicaprio-doesnt-date-women-over-age-25-1738497), despite the soullessness of the whole thoughtless practice. You can’t coast on luck and boyish perplexity all the time, as much as Silent Hill and Resident Evil insist otherwise. They get to navigate the marsh and the mist, waving their guns like lollipops, shouting “What was that!?” at every bump in the night. I’m certainly disturbed by Christopher Columbus, who Scientific American [described in 1893](https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/anecdotes-from-the-archive/will-the-real-christopher-columbus-please-stand-up/) as being “with blond beard and hair, clear complexion and blue eyes.” I feel it in my core.

The Silent Hill 2 remake will be a PlayStation 5 console exclusive for 12 months.

We will expand our partnerships and broaden the world of Silent Hill together with teams that love the series from around the globe. The revival of the Silent Hill series does not end with Silent Hill 2. With that change we want to immerse players even deeper into the game, make them feel like they are a part of this unreal world, and deliver them a more visceral experience across the board. We’ve already shown with our previous title, The Medium, that we can get pretty creative when it comes to haptic feedback and adaptive triggers. We are working closely with the original creators, including Akira Yamaoka and Masahiro Ito, to ensure we’re keeping that unique Silent Hill feel intact. Silent Hill 2 is a beloved and timeless classic – it’s almost a cliche to say it out loud, but it’s just so true for many of the Bloober Team members.

The question now is whether or not Ryukishi07 and the rest of the game’s team will be able to overcome the many burdens and expectations that come with the Silent Hill name. Ryukishi07 has even previously stated that he prefers that kind of non-linear narrative design to more straightforward storytelling, which is probably exactly the kind of thing you want to hear if you’re hoping for a [proper new](https://www.denofgeek.com/games/silent-hill-2-horror-masterpiece/#disqus_thread) Silent Hill story. Knowing all of that, it’s easy enough to see why a lot of Ryukishi07’s fans are beyond excited that he’s actually working on a Silent Hill game. There’s an almost Grand Guignol quality to some of his work that would certainly seem to fit the Silent Hill series and what we saw in the Silent Hill f trailer. At the end of their recent presentation, Konami aired the first trailer for Silent Hill f: a new Silent Hill game from Neobards Entertainment (the developers of Resident Evil Re:Verse). However, at the end of that preview, we are informed that Silent Hill f‘s story was written by Ryukishi07.

Not much has been revealed about the game, other than a mysterious trailer featuring a man talking over a walkie-talkie. "Why are you here?" he asks. "Here to ...

[Silent Hill 2](games/ps5/silent_hill_2) remake is official, and Bloober Team is the developer leading production. The combat system is also being rebuilt, and certain set pieces will be changed.

The legendary psychological horror franchise is set to return with three video games, a movie and an interactive streaming series.

Konami may have been absent from Silent Hill for a decade, but after the 45-minute stream, the extent of its commitment to that eerie little town became very clear indeed. A movie is on the way, Return to Silent Hill, from the director Christophe Gans, responsible for the original Silent Hill film. At that time, a reboot of the series, titled Silent Hills, went into development at Kojima Productions, the studio set up by Hideo Kojima, creator of Metal Gear. During a YouTube presentation on Wednesday evening, Konami announced a reboot of the acclaimed sequel Silent Hill 2 and two new adventures, Silent Hill Townfall and Silent Hill F. Also involved are key members of the original Silent Hill development team, including the composer Akira Yamaoka and concept artist Masahiro Ito, best known for his creation of Silent Hill’s most infamous monster, Pyramid Head. [A teaser trailer](https://youtu.be/_wWF_TKSvzI) featuring a retro portable TV device gave little away, and no details about a release date or platforms were revealed.

The developer behind Stories Untold and Observation is working with Konami and Annapurna Interactive on a new Silent Hill game called Silent Hill: Townfall.

But Konami, No Code, and Annapurna are clearly trying to keep Townfall something of a mystery for now. No Code is the indie developer behind Stories Untold and Observation, an anthology horror game and sci-fi thriller, respectively, that netted the studio back-to-back BAFTA awards. One of the more intriguing projects revealed at Konami’s Silent Hill Transmission event on Wednesday was Silent Hill: Townfall, a mysterious new game in the horror franchise developed by No Code and Annapurna Interactive.

A new version of the 2001 survival horror game is in development…

“Silent Hill 2 is a cult classic, and it’s widely recognised as one of the best games ever made,” Lenart said. “The fact that Silent Hill remains in everyone’s hearts more than 20 years later makes me very happy. “I am personally very happy that this game, which is more than 20 years old, is being revived again as a new game in the form of a remake,” he said. “While we want to achieve the same end result, players’ expectations evolve over time, and certain things need to be modernized to have the same or similar effect. “It’s been a really long time. He added: “The remake also has a new musical style, new challenges, and sound design and music that will be able to please the existing fans, and of course for the players who don’t know Silent Hill 2.” Composer Yamaoka said the remake would have “a new musical style” and also elements that would please fans. [PlayStation 5](https://www.videogameschronicle.com/platforms/playstation/ps5/) as a console exclusive, as well as [PC](https://www.videogameschronicle.com/platforms/pc/), Konami said, and original creators such as art director Masahiro Ito and composer [Akira Yamaoka](https://www.videogameschronicle.com/people/akira-yamaoka/) are said to be “closely” involved. [Silent Hill Townfall](https://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/silent-hill-townfall-announced-published-by-annapurna-interactive/) by Observation developer No Code, and another new game called [Silent Hill F](https://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/silent-hill-f-is-a-new-game-from-the-studio-behind-resident-evil-resistance/).

We're finally getting some new Silent Hill games, but are fans setting themselves up for disappointment? Here's what the internet has to say.

All in all, it seems safe to say that the Silent Hill presentation was viewed as something of a mixed bag. It’s a little too difficult to say for sure so early on, but that project is shaping up to be the one upcoming Silent Hill game that could continue the best part of the series’ legacy while taking it in an exciting new direction. To some, the idea of getting to play an updated version of Silent Hill 2 is more than enough reason to reason to be excited about the project. As a huge fan of Stories Untold, I don’t mind telling you that this is the upcoming Silent Hill game that I’m most excited about. Well, that kind of depends on who you ask and which of the new Silent Hill projects you’re talking about. Prior to the reveals themselves, though, you could certainly pick up on the increasingly strong vibe that Konami’s Silent Hill showcase was destined to disappoint.

The setting is also unique for the series given that Silent Hill is a town in the United States. Having worked with stories that deal heavily with psychological and supernatural horror, Ryukishi07 is a great choice for writer on a new Silent Hill game. The atmospheric trailer shows a scenic, but sinister, Japanese town that's becoming engulfed in some kind of fungus.
