KONAMI has confirmed that the long-rumoured Silent Hill games are in the works, and that more information will be revealed shortly.
The last full entries in the series – Silent Hill: Downpour, Silent Hill HD Collection, and Silent Hill: Book of Memories – all released in 2012.
The teaser for the upcoming announcements.
They were all poorly received by fans, presumably forcing the once-popular series into an indefinite hiatus.
However, in 2014 fans became hopeful for a comeback.
A terrifying playable demo called P.T. was released by Konami and confirmed to be a new Silent Hill game.
However, when director Hideo Kojima split from the company, the project was cancelled, and fans’ hopes were dashed.
In recent years, there have been hints at a comeback for the series, both by Konami in Japan, and by third-party studio Bloober Team.
A Silent Hill game, believed to be a playable demo like P.T called Silent Hill: A Short Message, was also registered in South Korea.
Last night (October 16), Silent Hill’s official Twitter account announced that updates for the series would soon be revealed.
It said: “In your restless dreams, do you see that town?
“The latest updates for the SILENT HILL series, will be revealed during the #SILENTHILL Transmission.”
The “transmission” will take place on Wednesday, October 19, at 10pm UK time.
It will be aired on a website that has been set up specifically to make the announcement.
Those who want to watch can tune in at this time, though they will have to enter their location and date of birth first.
While the trailer is awaiting an official age rating, previous Silent Hill games have been rated 18 or mature for violence and gore.
This is likely why the website requires you to input your age before being allowed to watch the upcoming announcement.
