Silent Hills Fan Uses Dreams To Finally Make It A Reality
A fan has used PlayStation’s creation game Dreams to resurrect Konami’s ill-fated Silent Hills. The cancellation of the Silent Hill reboot was a heartbreaking experience for Silent Hill fans after experiencing its critically renowned PT demo for PS4. Since then, the franchise has fallen dormant, but fans remain hopeful for new entries after a recent update for Silent Hill's trademark by Konami.
Silent Hills is regarded by many as one of the most tragic cancellations of a video game to date. The reboot would have been co-directed by Hideo Kojima and acclaimed director Guillermo del Toro, and it would feature Norman Reedus in the leading role. When its Playable Teaser (PT) hit the PS4 in August 2014, it received universal praise for its psychological use of gameplay and unsettling atmosphere to terrify its players. However, despite all its achievements, the Silent Hills project was terminated in April 2015 due to disputes between Konami and Kojima, ultimately leading to Kojima’s untimely departure from the studio. The impact of PT continues to resonate through the industry, with many horror games, including the recent Resident Evil entries, taking cues from PT's experience. Though highly unlikely, fans believe a full official release of the PT-basedSilent Hill would be the Snyder Cut of video games.
