Konami, once one of the most respected video game companies in the industry, has for many years been well removed from producing big-budget, triple-A titles. The company’s current direction was highlighted by the departure of Hideo Kojima, and since then many people have been dreaming of the return of one of its big franchises. Fortunately, silent Hill It could come back, though, as a remake or remaster of at least one of the games that were released.

The official Silent Hill and Konami Twitter accounts shared the link website announcing the event scheduled for October 19 at 11 a.m time zone of mainland Spain and the Balearic Islands, in which the “latest updates” of the saga will be shown. After filling in the form with the region and date of birth, the user will be redirected to another website where they will be shown the day and date of the event, links to the official Silent Hil Twitter and Facebook accounts, as well as an additional link to the list of titles released so far (including HD remasters ).

Both tweets refer to the first line of a letter received by James Sunderland, the protagonist Silent Hill 2, at the beginning of the game. That made it stronger rumors about a possible remake of the mythical work, considered by most fans to be the best, developed by Bloober Team. Initial rumors of a remake had their origins in some alleged leaked screenshots.

The door is also open to see further development around the Silent Hill saga and even non-video game products such as movies. There is a project formerly called Silent Hill “Sakura” that took a more cryptic, demo-oriented approach like the then-cancelled PT.

On the other hand, the story of Silent Hill 2 has no connection to the story of its predecessor, so you don’t need to have played it to understand it. If the remake is confirmed and goes well, this server will have a chance to clear the outstanding account.
