[Rumor] Konami and Sony have been working on Silent Hill reboot for 18 months

It is known that there are things going on around the Silent Hill game, but it is difficult to unravel what is behind the development. So far, it is speculated that Japan Studio is working on a reboot of a Konami franchise, with the direction of Keiichiro Toyama, creator of Gravity Rush. The choice was right, as the creator even worked on the first Silent Hill game.

In addition to the above, artist Masahiro Ito and composer Akira Yamaoka are known to be working on the Slilent Hill project as well. After the publication, on the social network Instagram, of another artist, Suehiro Maruo, speculation grew even more. However, it is not possible to be sure that there is any connection between the art and the developed game.

Silent Hill Reboot Seems to Have Been in Development for 18 Months According to ResetEra Post

It was recently revealed by a rumor producer called "Dusk Golem" on the ResetEra forum that the new Silent Hill title has been in production for 18 months now. According to reports, Konami even looked for a partnership, and Keiichiro wanted to get back to work with horror. So Sony decided to foot the bill for the project, as it is a franchise that has high expectations and has a high chance of success. With this, Konami will receive a percentage of the profits.

It looks like the Silent Hill reboot will be announced later this year and will likely be at the time when PS5 games are announced. There's too much information here that there isn't actually anything in the works and for this reason, the rumors are believed to be accurate. Of course, even so, only with an official pronouncement will we be sure and this will probably happen soon.
