At long last, the rumors can come to an end, as we now know what's next for the Silent Hill franchise, at least for the next couple of years.
Konami announced a Silent Hill 2 remake on Wednesday, revealing that the iconic horror title would be rebuilt by Bloober Team, a studio known for working on horror games like Layers of Fear and The Medium. The Silent Hill 2 remake is coming to PS5 and PC, and is a timed PS5 console exclusive for at least a year.
The full Silent Hill 'Transmission' stream can be found below.
There's no release window right now, but the teaser trailer shows James in the titular town, as well as glimpses of enemies like the nurses and the dreaded Pyramid Head. Masahiro Ito, a concept artist who originally worked with Team Silent on the original Silent Hill games, is also contributing to the Silent Hill 2 remake. Konami noted in the livestream that Ito was first approached in regards to the project three years ago.
Ito isn't the only veteran of Team Silent to be working on the Silent Hill 2 remake. Akira Yamoaka, a composer who has worked on numerous titles including the mainline Silent Hill games and more recently The Medium, will also be returning for the remake.
The fact that Silent Hill is still in people's hearts 20 years later makes me very happy.
