After years of waiting for news and the return of the Silent Hill license, speculations regarding a new production being developed by Bloober Team (Observer, The Medium) alongside Konami are making recent appearances. Twitter user Dusk Golem shared four images from a project.
A Twitter account that has been the source of several more or less reliable leaks regarding the Silent Hill and Resident Evil games for several years. The speed at which they were taken down for copyright infringement adds to its credibility.
In particular, he claimed to have “more than enough evidence to believe” in order to prove that these images are real.
(1/2) are a bit dated, from 2020, so maybe this project looks a bit different now. But what I’m choosing to share. I know many will doubt this, but I have a lot of private proof to show this is real, & as always, I continue to wait on the Silent Hill game reveal.

What do the pictures show?
Before being removed, some people may have seen these leaks. Indeed, we might see horrific scenery, tortured within a dilapidated house, a frightening corridor, as well as a female character whose face is covered with pieces of paper with messages. At the end of this corridor, we can see another character with a flowering tree on his head. Some people think they see a reference to some comments made by the game’s art director Masahiro Ito.
I love my character “Pyramid Head”, but really don’t wanna use him anymore. However it will be too difficult to make new SH without him.
So if I were to make a horror title, it would be not SH and I would try to use cherry blossom trees as one of horror materials.— Masahiro Ito (@ adsk4) April 16, 2018
A long-awaited new album
Fans are getting impatient and demanding a new Silent Hill opus. However, nothing is concrete for the moment. The Silent Hill reboot has been rumored since last October with more reports emerging in February, before resurfacing in March. when Konami rebranded the series.
The license has been dormant since 2012. The last project dates back to 2014 in P.T. which ended with a Silent Hills trailer intended to be directed by Hideo Kojima and Guillermo del Toro. Unfortunately, the project was canceled and withdrawn from sale a few months later following the separation between the creator and Konami.
