Dusk Golem has been tweeting about this as well. Konami still owns the IP. Some notable excerpts:[/size]QuoteOur first source, who we've come to trust well, indicates that Keiichiro Toyama (director and writer of the original 1999 Silent Hill) and Akira Yamaoka (composer for the majority of the franchise) are also returning alongside Masahiro Ito. The trio will helm a "soft reboot" of the Silent Hill series, possibly just called Silent Hill. SIE Japan Studio, which possibly includes team members from "Project Siren," the group behind Siren: Blood Curse for the PlayStation 3, will be behind its development in some capacity (either in full or in part). Our source states that this title has been in the works for about a year. Our second source -- which has no connection to the first -- was aware of Ito's involvement in a new Silent Hill title and informed us of that information some time ago.
The second Silent Hill title referenced in previous rumors is still being worked out at the moment, but it's looking as if it very well could be Silent Hills, Hideo Kojima's famously canceled title. According to our first source, Sony is working to patch up the relationship between Kojima Productions and Konami in order to resurrect the game due to the amount of buzz and continued demand for it five years after its cancellation; our second source shared this same information with us in the past. We can now report on it with some confidence in its legitimacy. Click to expand... Click to shrink...
