Recent ‘Silent Hill’ Rumors Quashed by Konami
Well, those rumours were good while they lasted.
After talk of Konami receiving pitches for new Silent Hill games, fans have understandably gotten their hopes up. However, when RelyonHorror reached out to Konami to confirm such rumours, a North American PR representative for the developer stated that the rumours were simply “not true.”
“We’re aware of all the rumors and reports but can confirm that they are not true. I know it’s not the answer your fans may want to hear,” said the Konami US PR rep. The rep also reiterated that Konami haven’t closed the door on the series entirely, acknowledging that it’s still alive in some capacity.
While it’s just another blow to fans who are probably tired of the whole thing, there is at least some consolation in the form of Christophe Gans and his upcoming Silent Hill film sequel, alongside a Fatal Frame adaptation.
Remember back in 2022 when developer Survios had announced that they were teaming up with 20th Century Games to develop a new Alien title? Well seeing as it’s Alien Day, Survios has announced their brand-new VR title, Alien: Rogue Incursion. Coming “Holiday 2024” to the PlayStation VR2, SteamVR, and Quest 3, Rogue Incursion will feature an original story that “fully surrounds players within the terrors of the Alien universe”.
Details on the game are light at the moment, but the official site describes the upcoming title as being “designed by Alien fans for Alien fans”, with Survios aiming to craft a “technically advanced, and frightfully immersive Alien virtual reality game.”
Seeing as Alien: Isolation never got official VR support when it was released, this is obviously a welcome announcement. In the meantime, if you’re keen to experience an Alien game in VR, you can always check out the fan-made mod for Alien: Isolation by Nibre_, which allows both the Steam and Epic Games Store version of Alien: Isolation to be played using the Oculus.
And speaking of Alien: Isolation, as you might expect, it’s got a hefty 80% discount going on at the moment on Steam until May 1. So if you still haven’t grabbed it after all these years, this is as good a time as any.
