Launched in 1999, Silent Hill is a license video game worship. A Survival-Horror-oriented series, which puts the nerves of the players to the test. As with the Resident Evilgames Silent Hill were not intended for all audiences. Niche games that fascinate many players, but who are clearly not appreciated by everyone.
With the next new opus, Silent Hill fexpected for September 25 On PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, Konami wishes to open his license to new people. For this, the title will be more oriented towards the genre action, even if it means abandoning the horror side a little.
Silent Hill F will offer more actions to players
It was during a recent interview in the Japanese media Gamespark that Motoi Okamoto, the producer of the next game Silent Hill fas well as its director, Al Yang, approached several points Regarding the next title. Obviously, the latter will be more oriented towards the action genre, largely to please a new generation of players.
“We did not want to recreate Silent Hill 2 again and again, and we were aware that there was no reason to continue to make it clones (…) So, to avoid reproducing the previous major titles, we decided to highlight the action in further value”.
The objective is therefore to seduce new players who have not necessarily known the first games in the series. Remember that Silent Hill 2 was a very special psychological horror game, but which marked the video game industry by its power and its impact. There is still today a real monument in the history of video games.
This change of orientation won’t be the only big change Why Silent Hill f. Indeed, for the first time in the saga, the game moves away from its original city, Silent Hill, to immerse ourselves in a Japanese setting in the mid -1960s. In this new opus, we will play a high school student named Hinako Shimizu who will have to face horrors from which we do not emerge unscathed.
