I think I speak for the majority when I say that Silent Hill’s publicity was one of the industry’s worst-kept secrets. A lot of information has leaked, a lot of data and details have been revealed; even concepts and more. This Bloober team was behind one of the projects also came to be known… However, from KONAMI there are still those who think it was a surprise somehow.
The thing is, in a recent interview with IGN, series producer Motoi Okamoto talked about the possibility of reviving more projects in the franchise. You already know that Silent Hill 2 Remake is not the only thing coming, we also have Townfall and Silent Hill F in the future.
New Silent Hill games could be a reality
Okamoto said the Japanese company was ready to save more projects or make new games viable, so he urged other studios to “send in their proposals”. What is certain is that It was a somewhat strange statement, But there it is. Moreover, he confessed that there was another previous attempt before these announcements, but it was ultimately rejected.
Unfortunately, some projects never saw the light of day. Still, I think the number of projects we have will continue to grow.
The fact that we were reliving Silent Hill was a secret until now, so we couldn’t come out and shout, “Hey, everyone!” Bring us your Silent Hill projects!’ We can do that now, so if creators around the world who love Silent Hill bring us their releases, I promise to look through each one. We are all ears.
At the moment the closest game is the remake of Silent Hill 2, which is a temporary exclusive on Playstation 5. The other two announced projects do not seem to be in a sufficiently advanced state to expect them soon. We also know that there are three other unannounced projects.
