Horror fans are going to get a treat tomorrow, as a press release just announced that a new game is going to be disclosed during the Indie Stream Fes right after the end of the Tokyo Game Show day.
IGN has an exclusive interview with the original developers of Silent Hill 2 who have returned to work on the remake developed by Bloober Team.
Ito: “Personally, I'm very satisfied with the quality of the town and the atmosphere of the Silent Hill 2 they're making. I really get the feeling that they respect the original while still making sure to arrange things in their own way. In particular, we had strong demands about the motif of fog when first starting on this remake, and they were sure to depict it just as we wanted. I believe from the bottom of my heart that they’re making something incredible.”
PS5 exclusives huh? This confirms another exclusive for PS5.
Im looking forward to this. The original left a lasting impression to the point that I still remember the feeling.
Calisto Protocol, Dead Space: Remake, Re4: Remake, and Silent Hill: Remake.
Horror games are back in a big way! I'm loving it.
Looking forward to this, but I'd also likd3 to play through the original SH2 again.
Few horror series in games are as talked about or discussed as Silent Hill. And while there’s plenty of fascinating material in them, Masahiro Ito would like to clarify one point in particular: that’s snow, not ash, in Silent Hill.
finally know, always had that concern for decades!, now I can move forward with my life :D
I think explaining things in your video game, movie, or book, that are not technical or related to certain challenges with the process is a thing you should never do. My man just extinguished 22 years of speculation in a once sentence, and for what?
A lot of people probably thought it's ash because it kinda makes more sense plot and setting-wise. While others just assumed it was snow. Those ideas could have coexisted before, but now they cannot. This is a minute detail and I don't think anyone is going to war in the comment section over this "reveal", but fuck me, it's tiring to look at interviews with directors and writers and hear the question "what did you mean by this, what does this symbolize, is this theory correct?".
I wish they would straight up start answering "shut the fuck up and figure it out yourself coward. Or watch someone's cool-ass theory on youtube".
Masahiro Ito hopes the unannounced project “won’t be cancelled”
LOL. A video game artist is working (Probably as a video game artist) on a new game. Not sure how that is news.
In other news, I started a new software development project to start the new year (Business software, not game). I have been doing this for over 25 years.
It's a mobile game.
Mobile...lame

Where are you getting such information? I paid no notice to it in this article anyway?
The revival of survival horror ^^
We've got Alien Isolation, Until Dawn, Evil Within, RE Remaster + Revelations 2, Fatal Frame 5, Silent Hills, Dying Light, Soma, Alone in the Dark: Illumination, and now this. But hopefully, capcom considering to make Clock Tower 4. The series got MIA on last gen.
