After years of waiting, Konami is finally bringing back Silent Hill. From a remake of the 2001 classic survival horror game Silent Hill 2 to other inspired spinoff titles and even another movie called Return to Silent Hill, fans have a lot to look forward to this coming 2023. As one of these fans, I’m particularly excited about Konami’s upcoming movie, knowing the previous two films were absolutely creepy, but really, really good.
That said, Konami unveiled its newest upcoming titles at the Silent Hill Transmission on October 20, 2022. Starting with one of the most widely loved survival horror games worldwide, Silent Hill 2 will receive a remake after over twenty years since it debuted in 2001. Developed by Bloober Team with the help of artist Masahiro Ito and composer Akira Yamaoka, the reworked Silent Hill 2 will return to James Sunderland’s story about finding his missing wife in Silent Hill.
Konami will also be releasing a few other Silent Hill spinoffs in the following years, one of which is Silent Hill f. This spinoff is a narrative-driven horror game set in 1960s Japan, featuring aspects of the franchise fans have grown to love and a lot of some newer horror elements unseen before. Silent Hill f’s storyline will be written by the legendary Japanese writer Ryukishi07, who created visual horror novels like Umineko and Higurashi.
Another spinoff coming to fans soon is Silent Hill: Townfall. Developed by No Code Studios and publisher Annapurna Interactive, much of Silent Hill: Townfall hasn’t been revealed just yet. Still, from the short trailer and title alone, its narrative might focus on the town that started it all, Silent Hill, and its downfall.
Following Silent Hill: Townfall comes Silent Hill: Ascension, one of Konami’s most unique announced projects that allows players around the world to control the storyline and fate of characters in an entirely new and immersive Silent Hill narrative. The game will be developed with the help of Behaviour Interactive, Bad Robot Games, Genvid Entertainment, and dj2 Entertainment. Although not much information has been unveiled, Silent Hill: Ascension will supposedly be a live, real-time interactive game.
But that’s not all, though. Konami will be making another movie called Return to Silent Hill that continues the Silent Hill series and story. Return to Silent Hill will be directed by Christophe Gans, the director of the first Silent Hill movie. And despite there being no information about the movie’s plot or direction, Return to Silent Hill will likely focus on some of the more iconic characters seen in Silent Hill and Silent Hill: Revelation returning to the mysterious town again.
Until Konami shares more details about Return to Silent Hill and all the new games coming in 2023 and later years, fans will have to stay tuned for more announcements in the future. For now, knowing Konami’s bringing back Silent Hill, fans should have more than enough excitement to fuel their patience and anticipation for these titles arriving soon. I know I’m tremendously thrilled.

Maybe that Silent Hill 2 remake is in good hands after all? - Layers of Fear Quick Review
PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Play it, especially if you’re like me and haven’t touched the Layers of Fear series up to this point. Like a lot of horror-heads, I was extremely worried when I heard the news that the long-rumored Silent Hill 2 remake would be developed by Bloober Team, a Polish developer of smaller indie horror games. It didn’t help that the only Bloober Team game I’d played up to that point was the studio’s
