Seems Like PS5 Will Be the Only Console You Can Play Silent Hill Townfall at Launch

by

Silent Hill, like many multiformat franchises, feels PlayStation.

However, this isn’t the first time a Silent Hill game has been released outside of Japan. Last year’s Silent Hill F, for example, launched simultaneously on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.

The series began on Sony’s PlayStation, so it wasn’t unexpected when Bloober Team’s remake of Silent Hill 2 first came out only on PlayStation consoles.

Konami appears to be sticking with a familiar approach for Silent Hill Townfall, as the game’s website currently lists versions only for PlayStation 5 and PC.

Things could still shift before the game comes out in late 2026, but currently, Sony seems to have a very firm grip on the future of the Silent Hill franchise, based on everything we’ve seen so far.

Townfall, created by the Scottish studio Screen Burn, is a story set on the island of St. Amelia.

I’m really enjoying what the publisher is doing with this series! Similar to how unique Neobards’ Silent Hill F is with its Japanese style, they seem willing to try out different ideas and even change up the gameplay, which is awesome.

We’re verifying whether this game will actually launch as a PlayStation 5 exclusive, and we’ll share an update as soon as we have confirmation.
