Konami and PlayStation have revealed the first trailer for Silent Hill: Townfall, over three years after it was initially announced in 2022. Annapurna Interactive, Konami, and No Code are developing the game.
In a PlayStation Blog post, Motoi Okamoto and Jon McKellan of Konami and Screen Burn respectively, stated the following about the game’s radio, perspective, and combat:
“While the Silent Hill radio has often been a passive device, alerting the player to nearby enemies through the sound of static, the CRTV takes this concept further. Not only is it a useful tool in encounters – allowing Simon to ‘see’ through the environment and locate nearby threats – but it also picks up signals from around the town that unveil more of the story and even help guide Simon through some of the other challenges he faces.
As shown in the latter part of the reveal trailer, the gameplay is experienced directly through the protagonist’s eyes in first person, in a change that we felt best matched our narrative, puzzle and design intentions.
While there are many different melee and ranged weapons to use in a pinch, sometimes fighting isn’t the best option. Using a combination of the CRTV, some environmental opportunities, and an intuitive peek system, stealth is an equally important strategy needed to survive.”
