The series’ most recent full-length expansions, Downpour, Silent Hill HD Collection, and Silent Hill: Book of Memories, were released in 2012. They were all treated with scorn by fans, thus putting the once-popular series on hold.
However, in 2014, fans began to hope for a comeback. P.T., a terrifying playable demo revealed by Konami, was confirmed to be a new Silent Hill game. The project was canceled after director Hideo Kojima left the company, shattering supporters’ hopes.
Both Konami in Japan and third-party business Bloober Team have recently stated that the franchise is being revived. Silent Hill: A Short Message, a Silent Hill game that, like P.T, is believed to be a playable demo, has also been registered in South Korea. Last night, Silent Hill’s official Twitter account claimed that fresh information about the franchise would be shared soon.

A ‘Silent Hill Transmission’ will be broadcast on a website dedicated to the announcement. Those who want to watch it must first provide their location and birth date. While there is no official age classification for the teaser, prior Silent Hill games have been labeled for persons aged 18 and over owing to the brutality and gore. This is probably why the website requires users to enter their age before viewing the upcoming announcement.
