‘Silent Hill f’ Creeps Into a September 25 Release Date; New Gameplay Trailer Revealed [Watch]

Konami and NeoBards Entertainment brought Silent Hill f to the Sony State of Play with a brand-new gameplay trailer, as well as announcing a September 25 release date for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store.

Per PlayStation Blog, Konami producer Motoi Okamoto dropped more details on the anticipated title, which sees you play as Shimizu Hinako, a high schooler from Ebisugaoka, who explores her hometown as it becomes engulfed in fog and shifts nightmarishly, solving puzzles and fighting for her life in the process.

As Hinako tries to survive the now fog-wreathed town, she will be faced with decisions that will shape her ultimate fate. Will she choose to embrace elegance and beauty? Or will her path lead her to madness and horror? Is she doomed to succumb to the insanity unfolding before her, or can she face her fears and find a way to escape?

Silent Hill f focuses on four main pillars. Firstly, you’ll be able to explore authentic depiction of 1960s Japan, the intricate details of the misty townscape all the more striking when enjoyed at a 4K resolution.

Second, visuals and music continue that juxtaposition between beauty and terror. There is the terrible beauty of the game’s monster design, created by the artist kera that marries Japanese horror with the uniqueness of Silent Hill’s previous, terrifying creations. Meanwhile, composers Akira Yamaoka and Kensuke Inage have fashioned a score that evokes the past but is entirely fitting with this new setting.

Third, puzzles are grounded in psychological anguish and suffering. These are deeply connected to the story by scriptwriter Ryukishi07, as well as elements of Japanese culture, such as scarecrows.

Lastly, the game features unique combat. The encounters are as challenging as the obstacles that Hinako must overcome in life. The combat will have a heavier focus on melee and be more action-oriented compared to last year’s Silent Hill 2 remake.
