Silent Hill ƒ is an upcoming survival horror video game developed by NeoBards Entertainment and published by Konami. Silent Hill ƒ is the ninth mainline game in the Silent Hill franchise and the first mainline title in the franchise in over a decade.[1] Unlike previous games in the series with the exception of Silent Hill 4, it is not being set in the titular town, but in 1960s rural Japan.[2]

Development

In February 2021, it was reported that Konami was planning to revive the Silent Hill franchise with multiple third-party studios developing new games.[3] In October 2022, Konami announced four new Silent Hill projects, 10 years after the last mainline Silent Hill game, Downpour.[4] Konami has revealed that Silent Hill f is developed by NeoBards Entertainment.[5]

The game is being directed by Al Yang, studio creative director of NeoBards Entertainment,[6] with the game being written by Ryukishi07.[7] Creatures and characters are being designed by Japanese artist Kera, with the game being produced by Motoi Okamoto, former Nintendo producer.[8]
