Late yesterday, Konami made one of the most anticipated announcements in recent years, confirming that an event will take place next Wednesday that will show the future of the Silent Hill franchise. And although nothing has yet emerged about what could be announced in just a couple of days, the truth is that it is already being rumored that some members of Team Silent would have participated in new games of the franchise.
Shortly after the announcement was made, Masahiro Ito, art director for classic installments in the franchise, shared via your personal Twitter account the tweet in which the announcement of the event that will take place on Wednesday was cited, which triggered rumors about his possible participation in one of the new installments of the series.
Two members of Team Silent would be involved in the new Silent Hill games
Considering that one of the games rumored to be announced during the event is the Silent Hill 2 remake, it’s no surprise that Ito, who is in charge of designing creatures for Silent Hill, Silent Hill 2 and Silent Hill 3, with Pyramid Head as the most emblematic enemies, be part of the project.
Everything we can expect from the Silent Hill announcement
But it is that in addition, the rumors not only point to him, and it is that following this same deduction there would be two members of Team Silent those who would participate in the development of new installments of the series. Specifically, we are referring to Akira Yamaoka, who also shared the Silent Hill post through his personal instagram account.
Therefore, it seems that some members of Team Silent could be present in the future of the franchise. Now it remains to be seen if the entire team will be in charge of any of the new games that have been rumored for so long, or if it will simply be some of them who participate as advisors or something similar.
