Silent Hill f Officially Launches September 25, 2025 on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC — New Gameplay Revealed
Konami has officially confirmed that Silent Hill f, the next mainline entry in the legendary psychological horror franchise, will be released worldwide on September 25, 2025, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. A brand-new gameplay trailer was unveiled during the PlayStation State of Play event, offering a terrifying and atmospheric look at what players can expect from this haunting new chapter.
A Return to Atmospheric Horror with a Japanese Twist
Silent Hill f introduces players to a new setting far removed from the foggy streets of Silent Hill, transporting them to a 1960s Japan-inspired rural town overtaken by supernatural decay. The trailer showcases beautifully grotesque environments, harrowing creature designs, and a palpable sense of dread—an unmistakable return to form for the series.
The protagonist, Shimizu Hinako, appears to be central to the narrative’s mystery. While few story details are confirmed, the PlayStation Blog elaborates on some gameplay mechanics including a mix of exploration, combat, and puzzle-solving, along with terrifying encounters with monstrous entities.
Deluxe Edition and PS5 Pro Enhancements
Konami has announced two editions for Silent Hill f: a Standard Edition and a Deluxe Edition. The Deluxe version includes:
A digital artbook
The official soundtrack
An exclusive cosmetic for Shimizu Hinako
Additionally, players on PlayStation 5 Pro will benefit from an Enhanced Graphics Mode. While exact specs were not detailed, Konami notes that the game will maintain high graphical fidelity with stable FPS, offering a more polished and visually immersive experience on the upgraded console.
A New Era for the Silent Hill Franchise
Following the release of the Silent Hill 2 Remake developed by Bloober Team, Silent Hill f marks a pivotal moment in Konami’s broader revival of the franchise. With the remake receiving strong praise for modernizing a classic while retaining its emotional depth, expectations are high for Silent Hill f to expand the series' universe and push the boundaries of psychological horror further.
