Konami unveils its line-up for TGS 2022



During the day today, Konami announced the line-up that will lead to the Tokyo Game Show 2022. Can the Japanese fair, which will take place in September 2022, really mark the return of Silent Hill? According to some rumors concerning a particular element of the games of the publisher and developer, yes, there you have it: the much-loved horror series could be back soon.



Silent Hill 2 (2001) if ( jQuery ("# ​​crm_srl-th_gamedivision_d_mh2_1"). There are several series currently frozen in Konami that many would like to see back in business. Among the most famous there are certainly Silent Hill, but also Metal Gear Solid. However, if for the second there are no indications of a possible return, Japanese horror has been talking about a new video game in development for several years. Thesis supported also when Dusk Golem ("insider" of the videogame industry), published on Twitter some screenshots and some materials related to the new project in progress, then removed by Konami for copyright infringement, thus going de facto to "confirm" the authenticity.

But be careful not to work too much with your imagination. As credible as it may be, Silent Hill announced at the Tokyo Game Show 2022 is still a remote hypothesis, which could hardly happen. Usually for such large franchises, publishers tend to take advantage of much more important stages, such as E3 or Gamescom in Cologne. We will update you as soon as there are more news and details regarding this particular announcement, which will take place (as scheduled) on September 16, 2022.
