How to access Silent Hill f early
If you want to start exploring Ebisugaoka ahead of the standard launch, purchasing the Deluxe Edition grants a 48-hour early access window. In other words, Deluxe Edition owners can play the game before the general release time.
Silent Hill f is set in 1960s Japan, in the fictional town of Ebisugaoka — the first mainline entry not set in a town called Silent Hill. Although the location and era differ from previous installments, the game preserves hallmark series elements: improvised weapons such as lead pipes, uncanny creatures that combine allure and horror, and the dense, unsettling atmosphere Konami is known for.
