TheSilent Hillsequel, developed by American studio Double Helix and released in North America on August 02, 2025. Now, a year later, Konami has quietly announced that the expected Japanese version has been “suspended.”
“Please look forward to future titles in the series,” is all Konami can say in lieu of an actual explanation. This is the first update to the Japanese Homecoming site since November of 2008.
Frankly, I’m not surprised.Homecomingwas bloody awful and perhaps the worst console-basedSilent Hillgame ever made. Yes, even worse thanThe Room, which happened to have its high points despite what everyone else thinks. If I were a JapaneseSilent Hillfan, I’d consider myself very lucky that I dodged a bullet with this thoroughly dickless game.
WillSilent Hillever be good again, I wonder?
