Not just with the inner turmoil that new protagonist Hinako Shimizu faces, but also with the setting, puzzles, and monsters that you face. That said, Okamoto has made it clear that Konami wants the future of Silent Hill games to be varied.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That doesn\u2019t mean every future Silent Hill will be like Silent Hill f,&#8221; Okamoto explains. &#8220;Each one will have its own distinct flavour. We want to keep experimenting and be ambitious, both in terms of gameplay design and storytelling, so please look forward to the next Silent Hill as well.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Creating more individual Silent Hill games has been quite the talking point for Konami during the promotional run for Silent Hill f. We were told the same thing at Gamescom when I got to talk to Okamoto and NeoBards&#8217; game director, Al Yang, about <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/horror\/a-succulent-silent-hill-meal-silent-hill-f-devs-admit-were-going-a-little-different-but-assure-longtime-fans-that-it-stays-true-to-the-series-they-know-and-love\/\" target=\"_blank\">what this latest game can tell us about the future<\/a> of the Silent Hill series.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We aim to create a series that is always challenging in a positive way, offering a different flavour of gameplay with each title,&#8221; Okamoto continued in a <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/obakemogura\/status\/1972230163380535537\" target=\"_blank\">social media post<\/a>. &#8220;Some things will remain unchanged, and the most important of these is the quality of the story. We firmly believe that a psychological story is essential to the essence of Silent Hill, and we will continue to focus on this aspect, confidently delivering it in future works.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I love the idea of future Silent Hill games branching out into new territories and trying out ideas from different developers, while staying true to the essence of Silent Hill in terms of its story motifs and psychological horror roots. In my eyes, Silent Hill f is not only proof that this concept can work wonderfully, but that it&#8217;s also the best way forward for a series that stayed stagnant for so many years.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fancy-box\">\n<div class=\"fancy_box-title\">Best of the best<\/div>\n<div class=\"fancy_box_body\">\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure \" >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' >\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"QJ7JHgYv6WEL9dHitak4vS\" name=\"BG3 Dark Urge.png\" caption=\"\" alt=\"The Dark Urge, from Baldur's Gate 3, looks towards his accursed claws with self-disdain.\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/we-want-to-keep-experimenting-silent-hill-f-wont-become-the-new-norm-as-konami-wants-each-new-silent-hill-game-to-stand-out-and-have-its-own-distinct-flavour.png\" mos=\"\" link=\"\" align=\"\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"\" height=\"\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"pinterest-pin-exclude\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\"\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Larian Studios)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"fancy-box__body-text\"><a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/new-games-2025-upcoming-pc-release-schedule\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>2025 games<\/strong><\/a>: Upcoming releases<br \/><a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/the-best-pc-games\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Best PC games<\/strong><\/a>: All-time favorites<br \/><a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/the-50-best-free-pc-games\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Free PC games<\/strong><\/a>: Freebie fest<br \/><a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/best-fps-games\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Best FPS games<\/strong><\/a>: Finest gunplay<br \/><a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/best-rpgs-of-all-time\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Best RPGs<\/strong><\/a>: Grand adventures<br \/><a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/the-best-co-op-games\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Best co-op games<\/strong><\/a>: Better together<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/horror\/we-want-to-keep-experimenting-silent-hill-f-wont-become-the-new-norm-as-konami-wants-each-new-silent-hill-game-to-stand-out-and-have-its-own-distinct-flavour\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Silent Hill f may seem like a huge outlier when compared to other games in Konami&#8217;s psychological horror game series: it&#8217;s not set in the town of Silent Hill, it takes place during the 1960s, and there&#8217;s a distinct lack of sexy nurses.
