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.
During the Future Games Show, Bandai Namco and Supermassive have announced the first DLC for Little Nightmares III in “The Backstage”. Featuring new puzzles and challenges, this additional content will take players to the darkest part of the Carnevale, where they’ll meet a new character and face new perils. You won’t have to wait long to get it, either, as Little Nightmares III – The Backstage DLC will release on June 12.
In this new adventure, Low will meet Dime, a new child who wears a torch hat, which turns out to be a very helpful tool for finding their way in what lies beneath the curtains of The Carnevale. The two children will have to face new threats and use their light to find a way to save Alone from the hands of the Puppeteer.
In the original game, players meet Low and Alone, who are trapped within the Spiral, a cluster of disturbing places. The two will have to work together to survive in a dangerous world full of delusions. As they scamper and shelter on their journey to escape the grasp of an even greater threat, their senses may also lead them astray into the shadows.
Little Nightmares III is currently available for PC via Steam, Xbox One, Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch, Switch 2, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5.
