A Silent Hill Reboot coming exclusive to PS5 has been making the rounds for over a month on the insider mill. Conflicting rumors had it being revealed at the PS5 reveal event but that turned out untrue. Insiders however doubled down and claim it's real and that it's happening; just pushed back by Sony. With the rumored State of Play slated for the next few weeks do you think Silent Hill is finally getting revealed? What do you think this new official twitter account, made at this specific point in time is hinting at?

[CitizenX]

Press F for creating new ideas. Million types of these games released every week, the name means nothing.

 

[LisaMariaMartin]

That tweeter is following a whole bunch of Xbox accounts.

 

[New Yorks Finest]

Its Kojimas joint and a collabo he's doing with some other Japanese dude..

Advanced FUDfare?

 

[MasterCornholio]

Better not be one of these.

 

[kretos]

Sony should just Buy Silent Hill and MGS and let Komani burn

 

[MiguelItUp]

A new and good Silent Hill exclusive would immediately decide which console I would get.

 

[Camreezie]

Is that a new logo?

 

[ShadowLag]

It's a 6-episode F2P mobile Netflix series with microtransactions featuring Pyramid Head (TM)

 

[JonnyMP3]

Silent Hill branded gaming PCs?

 

[MasterCornholio]

Advanced FUDfare?

Maybe FUD control?

Cheap remake as it's Konami looking for cash?

Why would they resurrect a dead ip just to have it die again? That’s fucked

Weren't the rumors that they were going around seeing who could make the game a success?

It could be possible that for some reason they thought Microsoft would be the best option for the franchise.

I doubt they would even do it if it wasnt another company footing the bill eg. Sony or Microsoft

It's a possibility. If it doesn't have the Sony Seal of Quality I'll be extremely wait and see on it. I think Sony wants their Until Dawn slot filler for next-gen which is why I'm leaning Sony but who knows.

 

[Captain Hero]

Swing and a miss

 

[THEAP99]

Nothing.

 

[Mr Hyde]

Downpour and Homecoming remastered for Wii U.

 

[MasterCornholio]

Swing and a miss

I mean Microsoft does have gamepass so that might be good for the franchise.

Although I think the best thing to do is release it on as many platforms as possible.

Do you mean the company that made the cash grab with Metal Gear Survive, after ousting its original creator and employee of 30 years by firing him before his final masterpiece in the series could be finished, and then releasing said unfinished product out with a rushed ending could ever treat a beloved IP with such indignity? I don't know. Doesn't seem like a Konami thing...

 

[SentientStone]

Silent Hill reboot PS5 exclusive, you will play as Hideo himself as he ventures into Silent Hill which is a projection of his mind during the punished Hideo phase of his career at Konami.

 

[Bartski]

I'd really appreciate them selling the IP to someone who isn't gonna fuck it up

 

[Insane Metal]

It's true. All of it.

 

[Faithless83]

A lot of people didn't believe it a few months ago when the rumors pointed to PS5. Now that it's getting traction you think it's an xbox game?

 

[SNPlayen]

They will make a “survival” horror game not unlike Metal gear survive called Silent Survive

 

[Aion002]

No matter what: Fuck Konami, always.

 

[Knightime_X]

Getting ready to setup shop after the Konami / MS deal ends up being true.

Muahahaha

 

[Bryank75]

Reboot, developed by Japan Studio and headed by Keiichero Toyama (who originally created Silent Hill and now works for Sony), contributions from Kojima but no official credits outside of 'special thanks'.

PS5 exclusive.

Possible MGS deal based on success / sales.

(All my speculation)

 

[Freeman]

Only Konami would make it look like such a sure thing only so they can pull the rug from under us announcing a new Silent Hill Pachinko.

That's why the "Fuck Konami" option exists. For those enlightened about their ways.

RIP Silent Hill in that case, you can't pull something like that off when the PS5 is expected to have a much bigger install base. It's a franchise killing move. Every main Silent Hill entry was on a PS console.

 

[Carna]

LET'S FUCKING GO!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[mejin]

 

[TheSadRanger]

We don't know what Team Siren has been working on and they've been free since Gravity Rush 2 released in early 2017................

They're the most capable studio Sony has that can pull it off.

Just like Final Fantasy on Xbox killed the franchise and SE huh

 

[turtlepowa]

I think it will be multiplat if it comes. It's not big enough for an exclusive deal, the sales figures of the whole series for the last 20 years are not very impressive.

 

[HerjansEagleFeeder]

HIT THE LEVER!

When was Final Fantasy exclusive to Xbox? An yes, it would've killed the franchise.

Hum, seems like you are just upset. I just state facts, don't be mad at me.
