Silent Hill: Townfall is an upcoming survival horror game developed by Screen Burn Interactive and published by Annapurna Interactive and Konami Digital Entertainment. It is a standalone spin-off of the Silent Hill franchise. Set in 1996 in the fictional Scottish town of St. Amelia, it follows Simon Ordell after he wakes up in a place he seemingly has no connection to. It is expected to be released in 2026 for PlayStation 5 and Windows.
Gameplay
Townfall is played from a first-person perspective.[1] While Simon can use melee weapons such as planks and pipes to defend himself, he can also use stealth to hide from enemies. Simon is equipped with a CRTV handheld device which allows him to detect the location of nearby enemies.[2]
Premise
In 1996, Simon Ordell repeatedly finds himself waking up in the water next to the docks in the town of St. Amelia in Scotland.[3] Simon must discover fragments of the past in order to understand his connection to the town.[4]
Development and release
Silent Hill: Townfall is being developed by Scottish studio Screen Burn Interactive. The game was first revealed in a 2022 teaser trailer.[5] On February 12, 2026, its first trailer was released during the State of Play presentation.[6] More information was revealed during a Silent Hill transmission that same day.[7] According to Screen Burn, St. Amelia is based on the real Scottish coastal village of St Monans in Fife.[8]
