Konami released the first trailer for Silent Hill: Townfall during Sony Interactive’s State of Play, and it’s exactly the kind of unsettling psychological horror you’d hope for from this legendary franchise. The new entry is being developed by Screen Burn and co-published by Annapurna Interactive and Konami, and it looks like it’s taking the series into some seriously disturbing territory.This isn’t a return to the familiar streets of the original town. Townfall shifts the action to Scotland, dropping players into the cold isolation of St. Amelia, an island swallowed in fog and secrets.We follow a new protagonist, Simon Ordell, who wakes up in a intense and uncomfortable situation. He’s wearing a medical wristband. There’s an IV bag. He has no clear answers. And for reasons that feel personal and ominous, he’s been called back to St. Amelia to “put things right.”The town looks deserted, but it definitely isn’t empty. The trailer teases a place that feels suspended in time, silent but unsettled. As Simon pushes further into the fog, fragments of the past start clawing their way back to the surface. He’s not just exploring a haunted town, he’s digging into his own connection to it and whatever happened there.The game is experienced entirely in first person, and players will explore, evade, and survive with a limited set of weapons and tools. Combat is frantic when it hits, but it’s clear this game leans hard into vulnerability. You aren’t meant to feel powerful.One of the more interesting additions teased is the CRTV, a pocket television that Simon uses to tune into unstable signals. It’s not just a prop. It’s a tool tied directly into the game’s mystery. That small screen feels like a gateway into something fractured and wrong, hinting at narrative-driven puzzles that uncover a truth that refuses to stay buried.Evasion looks intense, and the trailer suggests that avoiding threats might often be smarter than confronting them. When fights do break out, they look chaotic and desperate. What makes Townfall especially intriguing is that it’s a full-length, self-contained story. You won’t need to brush up on previous entries to dive in, but longtime fans will absolutely recognize the psychological dread that defines the franchise.Silent Hill: Townfall is coming to PlayStation 5 and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store. There’s no release date yet, but fans can wishlist the game now.
