New Manga Released to Celebrate 15 Years of ‘Siren’

Published

Despite myself never getting into it, Sony’s survival horror series Siren holds a special place for many gamers. Despite not having as big of an impact compared to genre heavyweights Silent Hill or Resident Evil, the first game still managed to get re-released on the PlayStation 4, and even a loose film adaptation called Forbidden Siren was created and released to coincide with the second game’s release.

Now, in celebration of the series’ 15th anniversary in Japan, according to the Japanese PlayStation Blog, Sony will be releasing a new manga based on the series called Siren ReBIRTH. Developed by Project Siren (the same team that created the series) and Saki Yoshi, the first issue has already been released (which you can read here, although it hasn’t been translated). No word yet on if the series will be translated into English.

If you’re looking to give the series a second look, as mentioned, the first game is available digitally on the PlayStation Store.

Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.

The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.

You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.

There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…

The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
