If you're new to the eerie world of Silent Hill, Silent Hill f is your perfect entry point into this iconic series. Let's dive into why this game is ideal for newcomers and what's on the horizon at the Anime Expo 2025.
Silent Hill f: An "Independent Work from the Series"
A Standalone Game That Can Be Enjoyed by Newcomers
Silent Hill fans have been curious about where Silent Hill f fits in the series' timeline. However, a tweet from Konami on May 20 clarified that Silent Hill f is a standalone game, distinct from the main series, making it an excellent choice for newcomers.
While Silent Hill f is designed to be accessible to new players, the developers have included subtle nods to past games, as mentioned during the Silent Hill Transmission in March. This game takes a bold step by setting itself in 1960s Japan, a stark contrast to the 1990s USA backdrop of the original series. Despite this shift, Konami promises to deliver the same psychological horror that the franchise is renowned for.
Anime Expo 2025 Silent Hill f Panel
Mark your calendars! Silent Hill f will take center stage at the Anime Expo 2025. On May 21, Anime Expo announced via Twitter (X) that Konami will host a panel titled "Unmasking SILENT HILL f," featuring Producer Motoi Okamoto, Scriptwriter Ryukishi07, and Composer Akira Yamaoka.
The panel is scheduled for July 4, from 3:15 PM to 4:05 PM at the Los Angeles Convention Center in California. Tickets for the show and registration for the panel are currently available on Anime Expo’s website. While there's no confirmation yet on whether the event will be livestreamed, this could be a key opportunity for fans to get a hint about the release date of Silent Hill f.
Konami has kept details about Silent Hill f's release date under wraps, but with the game now available for wishlist on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, anticipation is building. Stay tuned for more updates by clicking on our article below!
