The Japanese company makes a huge mistake.
It cannot be said that Silent Hill is living its best moment. What’s more, being more general, neither Silent Hill nor Castlevania nor Contra nor Bomberman nor Pro Evolution Soccer nor the other Konami sagas are having their best moment, since the Japanese company has left video games aside to focus on other markets, one of the consequences of this being the famous divorce with Hideo Kojimaresponsible for Metal Gear Solid who left through the back door of the company where he became one of the biggest names in the industry.
Having said all this, it must be said that pachinkos and other business models They are the ones that have priority for Konami at the moment, this being one of the possible reasons why the Japanese company has made one of the biggest ridicules of the year. And it is that, due to a clear negligence (which we hope was not voluntary), Konami has lost the rights to the official Silent Hill website.
The content of the Silent Hill website has been completely deleted
Recently Konami’s rights to the Silent Hill website they had expired, giving this place that the Japanese company should have carried out its renovation. However, it seems that this was not done, this being a case that is becoming more serious because It is not the first time it happens.
Be that as it may, either because the fans were attentive due to the background or by pure chance, it has been known that someone acquired the right from the official websiteso now SilentHill.com belongs to a completely unknown person who has deleted all content and instead he has posted a tweet with an illustration of Pyramid Head, an iconic enemy that we can see in the saga.
It must be said that we are waiting to see if Konami regains the rights, this being normal if we take into account that they still own the rights to the Silent Hill brand and franchise. However, until that moment arrives, it remains as a nice anecdote, of which, for the time being, we don’t know the reasons that have led Konami to commit such negligence.
On the other hand, it should be noted that Rumors of a new installment or remake of the first title are still presentalthough Konami’s neglect with the brand may have lost strength.
