Konami's Silent Hill Franchise
Back in 2022, one of the most awaited announcements from Konami was unveiled to the world, confirming the long-rumored return of the beloved Silent Hill franchise. However, Konami's showcase featured the remakes of its various titles released before via the Silent Hill Transmission event, after many years of the gaming company and its producer not working on the franchise since 2012.
The return of the game franchise was enshrouded in mystery and kept secret by those working on the games, but it was said that as many as four titles are debuting soon. While this initial leak did not mention any specific titles of the Silent Hill game's return, there are speculations behind several remaster projects for the renowned titles in the past, but also new releases.
Silent Hill 2's announcement was massive for the gaming community when it was announced less than two years ago, but the wait has already been long since the last update from the gaming company. However, things took quite a turn earlier today when Okamoto revealed new information behind the game, one that could possibly be released this 2024 for the modern platforms.
