Konami has released more details about the next mainline Silent Hill game, along with a promising trailer which leans into Japanese horror.<\/p>\n

After being left dormant for nearly a decade, Konami has doubled down on Silent Hill with a wave of projects over the past couple of years.<\/p>\n

Several of them so far have been very underwhelming, including Silent Hill: Ascension<\/a> and Silent Hill: The Short Message<\/a>, but last year’s Silent Hill 2 remake<\/a> turned out far better than anyone expected, putting the series back on the map to some degree.<\/p>\n

Konami is hoping to capitalise on this positive momentum with Silent Hill f, which is the first mainline entry since 2012’s Silent Hill: Downpour<\/a> and always looked the most promising of the new games. It was first announced in October 2022, but a new Silent Hill Transmission broadcast has shed more light on what to expect.<\/p>\n

Silent Hill f is developed by Taiwanese studio NeoBards Entertainment, who have worked on several games as a support studio but are otherwise known only for unloved Resident Evil multiplayer spin-offs, Resident Evil: ReVerse<\/a> and Resident Evil: Resistance.<\/p>\n

As shown in the new trailer, the game is set in Japan and not in Silent Hill itself, which is usually portrayed as being in Maine, US. Although you’d never guess from the visuals or dialogue, The Short Message was set in Germany, so this may suggest that future Silent Hill games will be set in a variety of worldwide locations.<\/p>\n

Either way, everything else hits the Silent Hill beats you’d expect, with overlapping worlds, plenty of fog, creepy monsters, and most importantly, combat with a steel pipe. Although the weird, vein like plants are definitely something new.<\/p>\n

The game’s protagonist is teenager Shimizu Hanako, who finds her town of Ebisugaoka (based on a real location called Kanayama in Japan) suddenly covered in fog. A synopsis reads: ‘Shimizu Hinako was living her life as an ordinary teenager. That is, until her town is suddenly shrouded in fog and begins to change in a horrific way.<\/p>\n
