The Silent Hill rumor mill continues to churn, it appears. In a brand new interview, Silent Hill film director Christophe Gans seems to verify a number of new Silent Hill video games are within the works, and what’s extra, they’re being developed underneath the auspices of Team Silent, so it isn’t solely Bloober Team being dragged into the titular city.

Last month, a brand new Silent Hill recreation, seemingly titled Silent Hill: The Short Message, was rated in Korea, lending extra credence to the constantly-swirling rumors of a Silent Hill revival. Now, due to a French interview with Gans performed by MaG, these rumors have been all however confirmed.

As common, the Silent Hill group has been fast to reply to Gans’ interview. Gaming analyst and leaker Dusk Golem, who tweets as AestheticGamer, put collectively an extraordinarily useful thread pulling in his personal speculations and data together with translations by ResetEra person Angie. In that thread, we study that Gans says he is working “with Team Silent, the unique creators” on the following Silent Hill recreation.

Gans additionally says there are “a number of video games in improvement”, certainly one of which is presumably Konami’s collaboration with Bloober Team (which might be a Silent Hill 2 remake). According to Gans, Konami was spurred on to revive Silent Hill due to the Resident Evil remakes and revival video games, that are “evidently distinctive video games”, as he places it (once more, with translations by a ResetEra person).

In a separate thread, Golem discusses the importance of “Team Silent”. As he factors out, Team Silent is one thing of a legendary entity; it by no means had a strong lineup, with loads of employees coming and going throughout main Silent Hill installments. However, Golem factors out that Gans’ reference to Team Silent means there’s most likely a improvement outfit underneath that title at Konami once more, and that he is seen staffers he acknowledges as having labored on Silent Hill video games earlier than.

It’s exhausting to not really feel like we’re drawing nearer to some official Silent Hill reveals. Back in May, Konami DMCA’d a sequence of pictures that purported to indicate a brand new Silent Hill recreation, suggesting these photographs had been most likely actual. There’s additionally the aforementioned Korean ranking for The Short Message, no matter that seems to be. Here’s hoping we hear one thing official quickly. Now, there’s simply the reported Metal Gear and Castlevania revivals to sit up for.
