Publisher Konami has revealed plans to launch roughly one new Silent Hill game per year after getting the iconic horror series "back on track" with this year's excellent Silent Hill f and last year's also excellent Silent Hill 2 remake.
Silent Hill series producer Motoi Okamoto shed light on the company's ambitions in Famitsu's end-of-year feature asking developers what their hopes for 2026 are, translated by Gematsu. "Following the release of Silent Hill 2 in October 2024, we were able to deliver Silent Hill f in September 2025, and the Silent Hill series has begun to get back on track," Okamoto said.
"Including both announced and unannounced titles, we're aiming for a release pace of about one title per year," he continued. "I'm not sure how much of that we'll be able to realize, but I'll continue to do my best as producer of the Silent Hill series. Ideally, we'd like to keep excitement around the Silent Hill series going at all times. We're working hard to share new updates, so I'd appreciate it if you could wait just a little longer."
Silent Hill series producer says Konami announcing SH2 remake, f, and Townfall all at once was so fans could "feel how serious we were" about reviving the horror series
As Silent Hill f's combat divides fans, series producer stresses the new horror game isn't the blueprint for future titles: "We want to keep experimenting and be ambitious"
Bloober working on Silent Hill remake and an unnamed project, and after Silent Hill 2 and Cronos: The New Dawn, new fans can't wait: "Day 1"
Up next for the series is Silent Hill Townfall, a still mysterious project coming from the indie studio No Code, developers of the lonely space thriller Observation. We also know Bloober Team are now remaking the very first Silent Hill game after giving the second a foggy makeover. Otherwise, everything else is up in the air - maybe Konami will let NeoBards continue what it started in Silent Hill f.
Turning any game franchise into an annual expectation can certainly lead to rote, sometimes plain boring stuff. But if some of these annual releases have more in common with The First Message - the short, free, first-person Silent Hill game - to fill out years without a big-budget title, then Konami's plan could definitely work. Okamoto doesn't sound like he wants to push out unfinished games for the sake of it, either.
Silent Hill f writer knows you don't really want to see "a happily ever after," and the game's horrific portrayal of young womanhood makes it my GOTY
