Had enough Silent Hill yet? Of course you’ve not, that’s why you’re here. Tonight (19 October), during the Silent Hill Transmission, as well as the announcement of a Silent Hill 2 remake and an intriguing new live Silent Hill experience called Silent Hill: Ascension, Konami had one more surprise up their sleeve.
Right at the end of the presentation, fans were given their first glimpse of Silent Hill F - an entirely new Silent Hill game which is coming soon. How soon isn’t known, as no release date has been given, but it’s looking really promising.
Take a look at the official trailer for Silent Hill F right here.

No gameplay footage was shown, but there’s a lot to try and decipher from the trailer. The whole thing also looks pretty dang different from the usual Silent Hill vibe - it appears that F could be taking the series in a new direction. This is pure speculation, however, as details are still so limited.
What's more, the game is being developed by NeoBards Entertainment - the team has worked on a number of Resident Evil games, including Resident Evil: Resistance and the new-gen versions of Resident Evil 2, 3 and 7. So, it's safe to say that they know their way around a spooky title, although it'll be interesting to see how they handle Silent Hill.
What's more, the game is being directed by none other than Motoi Okamoto - now a producer at Konami, he previously worked for Nintendo on titles including Super Mario 64 DS, New Super Mario Bros., and Pikmin. Talk about a change of tone, huh?
Unfortunately, that's pretty much all we know about this new title for now - it's not been confirmed what platforms it'll be released on, but if the Silent Hill 2 remake is anything to go by, PS5 is probably a pretty safe bet, and maybe even PC, too. We'll just have to stay tuned for more info.
