Straight from the horse’s mouth

Since the premature death ofSilent Hillsand theP.T.demo, we’ve seen a constant stream of supposed leaks and rumors about what will be the nextSilent Hillgame.  Plenty of people claim to have inside information, but this Wednesday, we’ll hear it directly from the people who actually run the show.  Konami dropped word on Sunday that a Silent Hill Transmission will broadcast on October 19 and will feature “the latest updates for theSilent Hillseries.”

In your restless dreams, do you see that town?

It’s anybody’s guess what we’ll see in the show, but I’d put my money on Konami pulling back the curtain on that recently uncoveredSilent Hill: The Short Messageproduct listing.  CouldThe Short Messagebe a new game or a remake of one of the previous games in the series?  Is it thatAbandonedgame we’ve all stopped making fun of?  I used theSilent Hill: Shattered Memorieskey art in the banner image because Sam Barlowmentioned a follow-up to that masterpiecein the past.  And Masahiro Ito seems to beaware of it.  I guess as long as Konami isn’t revealing a new pachinko machine, it should be worth tuning in for.

TheSilent Hillfranchise has been in purgatory for about a decade following the release ofDownpourandBook of Memoriesin 2012.  Hideo Kojima famously tried to take the reigns of the franchise in 2014 withSilent Hills, but following a well-publicized fallout with Konami, he left the company and the project behind to form his own studio.  There have beenmanyrumors of Kojima creating aSilent Hillgame over at Kojima Productions, but there’s not been anything concrete on that front.
