Silent Hill f stands out as a fresh chapter in the iconic horror series, distinct from its predecessors. Publisher Konami has confirmed via X/Twitter that this new installment will not be a sequel but a standalone narrative, much like Silent Hill 2. This approach ensures that even newcomers to the series can dive right into the experience without prior knowledge of the Silent Hill games.
While the core series, including Silent Hill 1, Silent Hill 3, and Silent Hill Origins, shares a connected storyline, other entries like Silent Hill 2, Silent Hill 4: The Room, and Homecoming have ventured beyond the traditional setting of the eerie east-coast American town. Konami's latest announcement underscores that Silent Hill f will similarly not require familiarity with the series' 26-year history, making its 1960s Japanese setting accessible to all.
Silent Hill f transports players to 1960s Japan, where they'll follow the journey of Shimizu Hinako, a teenager grappling with societal and familial expectations. The narrative is penned by Ryukishi07, renowned for the When They Cry visual novel series. The game's Japanese-language reveal trailer from March marked it as the first Silent Hill game to receive an 18+ rating certification in Japan.
Currently in development, Silent Hill f is set to maintain its mature rating across different regions, with an Mature rating in the U.S., PEGI 18 in Europe, and CERO:Z in Japan. This contrasts with previous titles like Silent Hill, Silent Hill 2, Silent Hill 3, and Silent Hill: The Room, which were rated CERO:C for ages 15 and up, while other games in the series were rated CERO:C or CERO:D for ages 17 and up.
As of now, no release date has been announced for Silent Hill f, and details remain scarce about No Code's forthcoming project, Townfall, within the Silent Hill universe.
