“Following the release of Silent Hill 2 in October 2024, we were able to deliver Silent Hill f in September 2025, and the Silent Hill series is now back on track,” series producer Motoi Okamoto told Famitsu. “We aim to release about one title per year, including both announced and unannounced titles. We’re not sure how far we can achieve this, but we’ll do our best as the producer of the Silent Hill series. Ideally, we’d like to keep the buzz around Silent Hill constant.”
One new game per year sounds like a steep challenge, but Konami’s initial plans for the series’ revival may already have them set for at least the next two years. Konami first announced Silent Hill: Townfall, from Annapurna Interactive and BAFTA-winning Stories Untold developer No Code, during the big Silent Hill broadcast in 2022. Complete silence has surrounded the project since then, though a now-deleted retail listing from department store giant Liverpool Mexico suggested Townfall would launch in March 2026.
So… now that we’ve got our series to finally get the love it deserves, spent 3+ years polishing and making the game the way the fans have all been clamoring for for years. We are now ready to mass produce, copy/paste the formula until we kill the franchise so spectacularly no one asks us to make another.
Line must go up! Until the brain-dead who just buy annual releases without thought begin to pay attention, studios will continue to do this.
I’m still in shock that EA is not going to do an F1 26. They said they want to do better with the next one, so they’re skipping a year.
