The future of theSilent Hillfranchise may be approaching faster than expectations. After rumors spread over the past several months that aSilent Hillgame was in the works at Sony, and perhaps even a second game, many may have believed any official announcement must still be a way off. TheSilent Hillleaker is back, however, and ready to break more news. According to the leaker, the newSilent Hillgame is set to be revealed soon.
Dusk Golem is a Twitter user and leaker best known for their reliableResident Evil-related leaks, yet they’ve since dabbled in news regarding a relationship between Konami and Sony to make one or twoSilent Hillgames.

Perhaps theSilent Hillgame is farther along in development than expected or perhaps Sony wants to get the game officially announced since there are so many leaks and rumors. Either way, the announcement of Sony’sSilent Hillgame could be coming soon, according to Dusk Golem. While there are no officialPlayStation or PS5 eventsannounced for the near future, an event announcement at any time between now and the PS5’s launch this holiday season wouldn’t be surprising.
For those wanting to know more about thenew SonySilent Hillgame, some early details have leaked. It’s apparently going to be a soft reboot of the franchise and not a full reboot. Exactly what that means isn’t clear, but Dusk Golem has said that they’re going “a bit farther” with the idea of a soft reboot than other games in the franchise.
As for the other potential Sony project, Dusk Golem teased that it was being offered to Kojima Productions. It would have beenSilent Hills. However, Dusk Golem’s latest leak is thatKojima would likely be rejectingSilent Hillsbecause he has something even more exciting being offered to him.
It’s been almost 8 years since the last games in theSilent Hillfranchise were released.P.T., Kojima’sSilent Hillsdemomay count, but even that is years old now. TheSilent Hillbrand may not be what it once was, but there’s a clear possibility that Sony is willing to test that. Hopefully this rumor proves true and horror game fans hear an official announcement “soon.”
