Konami and Bloober Team Tease New Silent Hill Game After Remake Success
  • Following the success of the Silent Hill 2 remake, Konami and Bloober Team have announced a collaboration on a new game.

  • While specific details about this new project remain under wraps, Bloober's CEO has hinted at something 'truly special' in development.

  • Konami currently has multiple Silent Hill projects in the pipeline, including Silent Hill f and Silent Hill: Townfall, alongside a cinematic adaptation titled Return to Silent Hill.

  • The Silent Hill 2 remake, released in October 2024, received high praise with ratings of 86/100 on Metacritic and 88/100 on OpenCritic, and was awarded Game of the Year 2024 by IGN Japan.

  • Despite initial skepticism regarding Bloober's previous title, The Medium, the remake became the fastest-selling entry in the Silent Hill series, solidifying Bloober's reputation.

  • In addition to their collaboration with Konami, Bloober Team is set to release a new title, Cronos: The New Dawn, later in 2025, which marks their first original survival horror game.

  • Cronos: The New Dawn is set in a post-apocalyptic 1980s Poland, showcasing Bloober's evolution as a studio.

  • Moreover, a film adaptation of Silent Hill 2 is in production, directed by Christophe Gans, indicating ongoing interest in the franchise.

  • While the focus is currently on Silent Hill, there is hope that Konami may eventually revive other franchises like Castlevania with similar dedication.

  • There is speculation that Bloober Team could also create an original game set within the Silent Hill universe.

  • Castlevania could potentially be a choice for Bloober, although it would represent a shift from their traditional horror style.

  • Despite ongoing discussions about the Silent Hill franchise, it remains uncertain whether Bloober will tackle remakes of other entries in the series.
