There was rumor a week back about Konami developing two new Silent Hill games. Now according to Eurogamer, Konami commented saying they couldn’t share anything yet but they are listening to customer feedback and thinking of ways to provide the next game.
The last Silent Hill game was Silent Hills and it was in development by Hideo Kojima. They released a playable teaser for the game and it was superb. Unfortunately the game never saw the light of day. Instead of Silent Hills, we are getting Death Stranding, which it will be released later this year.
So according to the rumor Konami reached out to various developers for ideas about a soft-reboot of the franchise and an episodic Telltale style game to go alongside with the main title. Honestly, as long it is not another Metal Gear Survive, then count me in.
The original Silent Hill was one of the scariest games I ever played in my young age. The rest of the games were mostly pretty good. P.T. was hellishly scary but very different from all the others.
It’s been a while since Konami announced anything really and reviving the Silent Hill franchise might be the right way to start. Still, nothing is officially confirmed yet but if anything changes we will make sure to let you know.

Thanks RelyOnHorror and Eurogamer.
Chris was born in the early 80’s along with the very birth of home gaming. After spending many maaany drachmas on arcades, his father decided to buy him a PC instead of going bankrupt. He lived through the advancing and development of the gaming industry, having played TONS of games on all platforms. He is always honest and will never hesitate to give his true opinion on a game no matter what. Loves stealth games and dislikes microtsansactions, DLC and pre-ordering…who doesn’t after all?!

wow, it’s real https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/9f2b5e04cc066e9bf848847c1c4bb139d30e7cbed8069ca2c66b58d78de220d1.jpg
Let me guess…Silent Hill Survive?
that was Konami’s abortive and pathetic attempt at the GaaS market and they themselves knew it too. that game was at best a MOD. every single element was recycled and reused. instead of winning their audience back with something decent, they go and make THAT game. Konami’s greed makes my blood boil.
Yeah it was terrible, and I hope they treat SH with more care but I doubt they will.
Konami is Konami and Konami is the worst!
Why only two when you can work on four?
Silent Hill the Gatcha game.
Silent Hill mobile
Silent Hill Battle Royale

silent hill wouldnt work telltales style, heck nothing would at this point.
And somewhere in an alternate universe we got a Kojima silent hill instead of death stranding
Oh god… How will they desecrate this
Who cares? Seriously now. Does anyone have ANY confidence whatsoever that Konami is even capable of producing a good Silent Hill game?
Just GTFO of the gaming industry entirely, Konami. You serve no purpose whatsoever.
I couldn’t have said it better
Oh, so now they wanna make a Sillent Hill game…how cute of them.
F*KKONAMI!
In Pachinkonami we trust!! https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/7f6058b94ae41fe3f92939526b22297135fde887546178dec6e568ef0971cfae.gif
“as long it is not another Metal Gear Survive, then count me in”
Metal Gear Survive, as awful as it was, at least appeared to be more fun than Death Stranding. Konami dodged a bullet with that one by letting Kojima go.

I played Silent Hill 1, 6 times, unlocked everything, all alternatives, etc. Never really liked any of the other games, only the first.
I’ll play it if the engine has been revamped, professional writers and animators are hired and the original composer returns (or Hans Zimmer :D) I’m not keeping my fingers crossed for innovation, as long as it resembles the original vision I am willing to play it.
perhaps their going to other devs for this project is a good sign, Konami seem to have admitted that they are no longer capable of producing quality games so why not others have a go at it?
Konami really don’t know how much hated they are.
It will either be a masterpiece or a piece of sh*t, there is no other way the audience will react differently.
Ill just leave this here for people who hate the way konami operates for no reason. Hope you’ll use it well.
