The previous few years have been torture for any Silent Hill fan. We’ve skilled hearsay after hearsay, leak after leak, and nonetheless haven’t heard a lot as a whisper from Konami. It had bought to the purpose the place many followers desperately hoped for a brand new instalment within the pivotal horror collection, however many had accepted it’d by no means occur. Instead, we have been left attempting – and struggling – to replay a few of one of the best horror video games of all time since.

It’s been a complete decade because the final full Silent Hill sport, Silent Hill: Shattered Memories, and 7 years since we had been all elated over P.T., earlier than then being scorned by the cancellation of Silent Hills. Needless to say, the journey of being a Silent Hill fan is a moderately rocky one.

Well, Konami are stuffed with surprises, it appears. Last evening, the official Silent Hill Twitter account shared, “In your restless dreams, do you see that town? The latest updates for the SILENT HILL series, will be revealed during the #SILENTHILL Transmission on Wednesday, October 19th, at 2:00 PM PDT.” Yeah, Konami. I’ve been having stressed desires about that city since I used to be a toddler; why do you assume most of us can’t wait to return?

For reference, that is 2PM PDT / 10PM BST / 5PM ET / 4PM CT this Wednesday, October 19.

The announcement was then retweeted by Masahiro Ito, who has continuously been an artwork director and monster designer throughout the Silent Hill collection. Most notably, he created Pyramid Head; who he later mentioned he hated his creation. Ito didn’t give a motive as to why, however many followers concluded it was resulting from the truth that enemies like Pyramid Head had been meant to be unique to the sport they’re in. And, nicely, he ended up in a bunch of different Silent Hill titles, too. He’s additionally been fairly vocal about how drained he’s of dealing with followers misconceptions of the sport.

This isn’t any affirmation whether or not Ito is concerned; he’s merely supporting the collection he helped to create. That mentioned, if Ito is concerned, it’s protected to say that any new (or previous) enemies we meet are going to be in high kind.

Let’s word that only recently, Silent Hill: The Short Message was rated in a Korean video games ranking board. This might very nicely be a part of what we see throughout Wednesday’s transmission.

However, that’s not all. We’ve additionally been aware of a number of whispers concerning a Silent Hill 2 Remake. Just final week, Christophe Gans (movie director of Silent Hill, 2006), shared in an interview that “I’m working with the Silent Team, the original creators at Konami, there are several games in development as we speak.”

And let’s not overlook about these leaked screenshots from Bloober Team’s inside pitch for a Silent Hill 2 Remake, too. If all of those rumours level to something, it’s that we might very nicely be seeing James Sunderland once more someday quickly.
