by

Japanese entertainer Konatsu Kato admitted that there were times when she felt as if she was on the verge of losing her sanity while playing the role of Hinako Shimizu in the upcoming version of Silent Hill.

On Instagram, the actress shared that she’s invested a considerable amount of time in the realm of Silent Hill for filming her character. She expressed, “I believe it was crucial to produce this work during that period.

The narrative was crafted by renowned Japanese author Ryukishi07, who gained fame for penning a collection of murder-mystery visual novels called the “When They Cry” series. Although some of these have been adapted for PlayStation consoles such as the PS2 and PS4, your best option to play them in English currently is likely on a PC.

In terms of the storyline for Silent Hill F, it unfolds in 1960s Japan, more specifically in the town of Kanayama. Creator Ryukishi07 has expressed a desire to explore the “beauty within terror”, and he’s hinted that earlier Silent Hill stories frequently centered around women’s suffering. To break from this pattern, he decided to craft a female protagonist who takes charge of her own decisions, rather than passively following the narrative’s lead.

It’s important to note that we anticipate this tale could become quite intense or troubling, given that cautionary advisories have accompanied the project from its inception.
