Konami, along with developer Screen Burn and Annapurna Interactive, revealed the first trailer for Silent Hill: Townfall. This is a full-length, self-contained psychological horror game set in Scotland. Well, it's foggy like Silent Hill. I suppose that's where the connection is. Silent Hill f was also pretty foggy and that one was in Japan.
Silent Hill: Townfall had a teaser back in 2022 at the same time the Silent Hill 2 remake and Silent Hill f were announced. This was also at the same time that Silent Hill: Ascension was announced along with the Return to Silent Hill film, but fans seem eager to forget about those two releases.
Silent Hill: Townfall is coming to PlayStation 5, Steam, and Epic at a date yet to be revealed.
The next chapter in the SILENT HILL series aims to evolve the psychological horror from previous entries whilst also keeping themes synonymous with the franchise such as mystery, tragedy and loss.
Players take on the role of Simon Ordell who is called back to the island of St. Amelia to ‘put things right’, encountering a town lying quiet beneath a heavy fog, seemingly abandoned but not at rest. All he has on him besides his clothes are an IV bag and a medical wristband with his name on it. He heads to the town with no leads but the voices from the CRTV he picked up along the way. Venturing deeper and driven to understand his connection to the place and its inhabitants, Simon begins to discover fragments of a past rising to the surface.
Experienced entirely in first person, Simon must explore, evade, and survive using a limited set of weapons and tools, including the CRTV, a pocket television used to tune into unstable signals. Evasion is tense; combat is frenetic, while narrative driven puzzles reveal a truth that refuses to stay submerged.
