Konami has finally shown new footage of Silent Hill f. We also learned a lot about the team developing the game and its storyline.
As announced, last night Konami hosted a stream where they finally showcased Silent Hill f. The biggest attraction was the new trailer, but we also learned a lot about this project.
The game is being developed by Neobards Entertainment studio. This team has previously assisted with many Capcom projects, such as RE Resistance, Resident Evil Re: Verse, or DMC HD Collection.
The game will take us back to the 1960s, to the Japanese town of Ebisugaoka. Silent Hill f will tell the story of a high school girl named Shimizu Hinako, and the script will touch on elements such as doubts, regret, and inevitable choices.
Steam has been allowing developers to add warnings about controversial content on game cards for a while now, and Konami has used this feature, providing us with an insight into what this title will include.
This game contains depictions of gender discrimination, child abuse, bullying, drug-induced hallucinations, torture, and graphic violence.
This game is set in Japan in the 1960s and contains depictions based on the customs and culture of that time. These depictions do not reflect the opinions or values of the developers or any individuals involved.
If you feel uncomfortable at any point while playing, please take a break from playing or speak to someone you trust.
Thus, we can anticipate a challenging scenario that will not avoid tackling serious issues. This isn't surprising, as the plot is created by Ryukishi07, the developer of well-received visual novel titles such as Higurashi and Umineko. During the stream, after showing the trailer, he stated that he had put all his creative powers into Silent Hill f. To the extent that he wouldn't mind if the game turned out to be his last work.
The music will be composed by Akira Yamaoka, known from previous installments. However, he won't do it alone. Composers Kensuke Inage, dai, and xaki also participate in writing the soundtrack. The involvement of these last two is particularly big, as they are musicians who have previously worked with Ryukishi07 on his visual novel projects. Kera is responsible for character designs, including monsters.
The PC system requirements were also made available on the Steam game card.
The following configurations will allow for gameplay at 30 fps in 720p resolution on low settings.
The following configurations will allow for gameplay at 30 fps on high settings or 60 fps on low settings, in 1080p resolution (or 4K if we use DLSS or similar technology).
