Hideo Kojima and Guillermo Del Toro Team Up To Reboot ‘Silent Hill’

Briefly: Details are very scarce on this one, but it just may be some of the best gaming news that I’ve ever heard.

Silent Hill is my favourite video game series of all time. Somehow, even after the last few atrocious entries in the series (well, Downpour was okay), I’m still able to say that. That’s how much the series’ early titles resonated with me. It’s a series that was once the pinnacle of the horror gaming experience, and it’s a series that has since fallen into obscurity, mediocrity, and terrible, terrible films.

But that’s about to change, because a new Silent Hill game is in the works, and it’s a collaboration between Metal Gear Solid‘s Hideo Kojima, and master filmmaker Guillermo Del Toro. Oh, and it also stars Norman Reedus.

Today at Gamescom, Sony debuted a teaser for a mysterious title called P.T. The ‘world’s first’ interactive teaser was then uploaded onto the Playstation Store. Upon completion (which I’m about to try my hand at as soon as I finish writing), Norman Reedus appears in a desolate, familiar town, before the Silent Hills (yep, with an S) title card appears.

This is incredible news, and we’ll be sure to keep you updated as we learn more. You can take a look at the P.T. teaser below, and be sure to let us know if you’ve downloaded the teaser yourself!
