Silent Hill: Shattered Memories Creator Is Pitching Follow-Up

Silent Hill: Shattered Memories

Every single time we report (more specifically I) report on some rumor surrounding this franchise, it seems like two or more take its place. Well, guess what? We’ve got another in the rumor mill. This rumor is coming straight from Silent Hill: Shattered Memories’ creator, Sam Barlow.

In a recent tweet, Barlow not-so-subtly hinted that he’s working on pitching a follow-up to Shattered Memories to the higher-ups at Konami.

His cheeky tweet could be a simple joke, but it’d be a cruel one since so many people have been starved for more Silent Hill since 2015’s Japan-only spin-off game, Silent Hill Pachislot. In terms of mainline, though, that dates back to 2012’s Downpour.

Barlow’s Shattered Memories entry was originally launched back in 2009 on the Wii but saw a port to the PS2 and PSP in 2010. It retold the story of the original game while also taking it in a different direction.

What do you think? Do you hope this is a nudge to the fanbase of a new entry? Do you think he’ll be successful? Tell us below!

Two Worthy Silent Hill Adventures Coming To Vita Soon

They're not exactly new, but Silent Hill goodness is Silent Hill goodness.

According to GameSpot , Konami will release Silent Hill: Shattered Memories and Silent Hill: Origins on the PlayStation Vita.

There are no release dates just yet but they're expected to be revealed "shortly." Both these games previously saw the light of day on the PSP, but it's interesting to note that this confirmation only counts for European territories at this time. We're hoping Konami eventually confirms both titles for North America as well. Said the publisher in a statement:

"The Silent Hill series enjoys a stunning reputation for innovation and terror, and these re-issues will introduce a new generation of users to its terrifying secrets."

Both horror titles are well worth playing, especially if you're a fan of the old-school survival/horror niche the purists always enjoy.
