Konami Targets Annual Silent Hill Releases After Back‑to‑Back Launches

The producer frames the pace as an ambition, with story quality the priority.

Overview

  • Series producer Motoi Okamoto told Famitsu he is aiming for about one new Silent Hill title each year across announced and unannounced projects.
  • He cited the Silent Hill 2 remake in October 2024 and Silent Hill f in September 2025 as getting the franchise back on track.
  • Silent Hill: Townfall, co-produced by Screen Burn (formerly No Code), Annapurna Interactive, and Konami, is widely reported as the most likely 2026 release, with unconfirmed retail listings suggesting as early as March.
  • Bloober Team is developing a remake of the original 1999 Silent Hill, with outlets expecting it to follow in a later year under the planned cadence.
  • Okamoto emphasizes maintaining psychological-horror storytelling quality, as commentators note the multi-studio approach could enable the schedule but raises concerns about potential franchise fatigue.
