A new video has gone live on YouTube which shows what a possible full Silent Hills game could have looked like if done in Unreal Engine 5. With the tragic loss of Kojima/del Toro's P.T. back in 2015, the chance to see what the video game auteur and the film director could have done with the beloved horror series will never be known. Ever since the project was canned, fans have been pining for what could have been, and some have just been making their own versions to fill the hole in their heart.
With rumors that Silent Hill 2 is being remade once again doing the rounds, with the game possibly being helmed by Layers of Fear developer Bloober Team, many are finding it difficult to leave the series behind. On the one hand, the fan base has been burned in the past with numerous speculations about the franchise making a triumphant return, but every time a leak starts shows up, some can't help but get their hopes up a little. Even the director of the first Silent Hill film adaptation has said that Konami is bringing the franchise back, but there's still been no confirmation.
Classic Silent Hill Games May Be Coming to Steam
In the meantime, the YouTube channel Enfant Terrible has released a video which reimagines Kojima's cancelled Silent Hill game in Epic's Unreal Engine. Using audio files from the P.T. teaser, the clip takes the viewer into some of the dark locales that could have been featured, with trips down ominous alleyways and the corridors of a school that house unknown terrors. Of course, the video can only speculate as to what this dead entry would have been like, but for fans of the series, it definitely has that vibe that players have come to know from the influential horror games.
