Silent Hill Transmission set for February 12 with Townfall focus
Konami's February 12 Silent Hill showcase will spotlight Townfall updates from Scottish developer Screen Burn. The 4am GST stream follows PlayStation's State of Play by an hour, marking the horror franchise's continued revival.
Konami has announced a new Silent Hill Transmission presentation for Thursday, February 12, focusing on updates from the Silent Hill series with particular emphasis on Silent Hill: Townfall. The presentation will take place at 4pm PT (4am GST on February 13), approximately one hour after PlayStation's State of Play on the same day.
What to expect from the presentation
According to Konami's official announcement, the Silent Hill Transmission will "reveal the latest updates from the Silent Hill series", with Silent Hill: Townfall taking centre stage. The Scottish studio Screen Burn, formerly known as NoCode, is developing Townfall in partnership with publishers Annapurna and Konami.
Screen Burn previously created acclaimed titles Stories Untold and Observation under publisher Devolver Digital. The studio rebranded from NoCode last year, with founder Jon McKellan noting the team's evolution since its 2015 formation.
Silent Hill series revival continues
Silent Hill: Townfall was one of four projects announced during Konami's October 2022 Silent Hill Transmission, which marked the franchise's return as an active property. That presentation revealed a Silent Hill 2 remake, Japan-themed entry Silent Hill F, streaming series Silent Hill: Ascension, and a brief Townfall teaser.
While Silent Hill: Ascension received mixed reviews despite winning an Emmy for Outstanding Innovation in Emerging Media Programming, both the Silent Hill 2 remake and Silent Hill F garnered positive reception from critics and fans. Developer Bloober Team is also working on an original Silent Hill remake following their successful Silent Hill 2 project.
Timing coincides with PlayStation event
The Silent Hill Transmission's scheduling places it strategically after PlayStation's State of Play presentation, which begins at 2pm PT (2am GST). This timing suggests potential coordination between the events, though Konami has not confirmed any direct connection to PlayStation's announcements.
Konami stated that streaming links for the Silent Hill Transmission will be announced closer to the presentation date. The company has not specified which platforms will host the stream or whether additional Silent Hill projects beyond Townfall will feature in the presentation.
