What was still only rumors and hearsay has now been official for a few minutes: Konami has just confirmed having signed a partnership with the studio Bloober Team for the development of a new game. Obviously difficult not to think of Silent Hill , when we know that the Japanese publisher wants to find a way to bring its license back to the fore. Not to mention that the Polish studio has become a specialist in horror games of a psychological nature, knowing that their latest title, The Medium, did not hide its influences drawn from Silent Hill. It is enough to read the press release to understand that Konami has new ambitions on the video game side, they who have withdrawn a little in recent years, especially after his heated divorce from Hideo Kojima.
Significant changes are expected in the future in the digital entertainment industry. KONAMI decided to form a partnership with Bloober Team in order to create high quality content by combining their respective characteristics and strengths. Information regarding content resulting from this partnership will be communicated when details have been decided.
Let us not forget to recall that Akira Yamaoka, the historical composer of the Silent Hill saga, also worked on The Medium, with comments from the latter which evoked a project that would be announced this summer. As much to say to you that the planets are aligning, that the desire to bring back Silent Hill more and more strong and that the players are already impatient to find this so dismal atmosphere of the series. To be continued.
