Silent Hill f: March 2025 Reveal Details
Konami's latest Silent Hill Transmission has arrived, and it was focused entirely on Silent Hill f, the upcoming entry in the beloved horror franchise set in 1960s Japan.
Silent Hill f was first announced in 2022 and described as a game that takes place in a "beautiful, therefore terrifying" world. It was also confirmed that Silent Hill f is being written by Ryukishi07, the acclaimed Japanese visual novel writer behind the Higurashi and Umineko series.
After nearly three years, we are finally learning much more about Silent Hill f, and you can read all about it below.
Silent Hill f Aims to 'Find the Beauty in Terror' and Present Players With a Beautiful Yet Terrifying Choice in 1960s Japan
Konami shared a brand-new trailer for *Silent Hill f* and a wealth of new details, including its aim to "find the beauty in terror" and present players with a beautiful yet terrifying choice set in 1960s Japan.The team wasn't ready to reveal the specifics of the decision, but they did unveil a bit of the story, and we'll let Konami set the stage:
"Shimizu Hinkao was living her life as an ordinary teenager," the official description reads. "That is, until her town is suddenly shrouded in fog and begins to change in a horrific way. Now, she must explore a town she no longer recognizes while solving puzzles, fighting strange enemies, and doing everything she can to survive... in order to face the ultimate decision that she must make. This is a tale about a beautiful yet terrifying choice."
This new game will feature an original story, making it an excellent entry point for new players, while also including Easter Eggs for series veterans. Konami also shared more details about the game, noting that it will take place in the fictional Japanese town of Ebisugaoka, which is inspired by the real place called Kanayama, Gero, in the Gifu Prefecture.
Next, creature & character designer Kera presented a message that should excite fans, teasing the horrors awaiting them in Silent Hill f.
"I love the Silent Hill series, and it's been a big influence on me," Kera said. "In particular, I am constantly remembering Silent Hill 2, and the messages on the walls, the music, and the monster designs. So, when it came to Silent Hill f, and bringing the setting to Japan, we had to come up with something that felt just a little different, and I had to really think about how to get that feeling.
"The monster designs were the hardest. I had to consider everything that's come in Silent Hill before, and figure out how to take this game in a different direction, but still be Silent Hill. It might not be the exact same blood-smeared, rusting scenery, but I sincerely hope you'll enjoy our vision and the world we've created."Music will also play a crucial role in Silent Hill f, with the team bringing together long-time Silent Hill composer Akira Yamaoka and Kensuke Inage (known for the Dynasty Warriors series and more) to create music for both the Fog World and Otherworld, respectively.
"I have composed music for an unsettling yet beautiful world that uses imagery from shrines, blending ancient Japanese court music with ambient echoes," Inage said. "I wove in various techniques that will connect the player to the protagonist's agony, internal conflict, fear, and other emotions."
While we didn't get a release date, it was confirmed that Silent Hill f will be released on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
