Bloober Team, the studio behind the upcoming Silent Hill 2 remake, is working with Skybound Entertainment on a new project.
Yesterday, Bloober Team announced via a press release that they are developing a game based on licensed IP from Skybound, the entertainment company founded by The Walking Dead creator Robert Kirkman. The project is clearly a horror game, so it’s obviously a fair guess that it’s a new Walking Dead game, although that’s not necessarily the case. There are also games like the supernatural series Outcast or the medical horror film Witch Doctor, so there are some possibilities.

“This project is another step in our second-party strategy where we work with external partners to offer our horror expertise,” Bloober Team CEO Piotr Babieno said in a statement (translated by GamesRadar). “These games are not only designed to be financially profitable for us, but are the next step in our strategy to deliver on our strategy by the end of 2027. We have known our friends at Skybound for a long time and I am confident this will be a successful collaboration.”
Skybound is no stranger to gaming, as it has its own publishing arm, Skybound Games. When Telltale Games folded in 2018, it ended up taking over the final episodes of The Walking Dead: The Final Season and also helped create a remake of the original Baldur’s Gate game.
Apparently, one of the big things Bloober Team is working on right now is a remake of the PS2 classic game Silent Hill 2. Unfortunately for those waiting to hear more about the upcoming remake, you’ll have to keep waiting as it’s up to Konami to share more details. Let’s just hope it doesn’t turn out to be a nightmare like Silent Hill: Ascension.
