Silent Hill: Townfall will hit PC and PS5 on September 24
Silent Hill: Townfall, developed by Screen Burn Interactive (the studio formerly known as No Code), will release on PC and PlayStation 5 on September 24, 2026. The game marks a rare first‑person take for the franchise, set in the 1990s on the fogbound island of St. Amelia off Scotland, where Simon Ordell awakens in the water with only a portable TV to guide him through a nightmarish town and pursuing monsters. Townfall emphasizes puzzle elements amid traditional horror and family drama, signaling Konami’s ongoing revival of Silent Hill. The title sits within a broader lineup that already includes the SH2 remake from Bloober Team and Silent Hill: f by NeoBards Entertainment and writer Ryukishi07; Silent Hill: Ascension is also part of the revival, though not discussed in detail here.
