Silent Hill f

Silent Hill f proves that Konami’s survival horror series is very much alive and kicking – with its fog machine in full effect, a nightmarish tale to tell, and grotesque horrors that would make even Pyramid Head cower. Silent Hill isn’t just back, it’s screaming to be heard.

NeoBards Entertainment has taken bold risks with Silent Hill f, and the result is one of the most unsettling, personal and rewarding horror games in years.

After many long years, Silent Hill has received its most exceptional installment, reintroducing the series to the Premier League of horror and regaining its reputation as the pinnacle of virtual terror.

An oppressive atmosphere. An unsettling story that will keep you guessing from beginning to end. Engaging combat. Stunning visuals. A fantastic soundtrack. Silent Hill f has all of these, making it one of the best entries in the series yet.

Silent Hill f is a true-to-form return for the franchise. It features a tantalizing story and world that offers a frightening introspection on the nature of sanity. The series' inherent psychological nature is ever-present, and it's made more impactful with refinements to stamina and health. Unfortunately, combat can still feel slightly janky. Despite its flaws, this is exactly what Silent Hill is all about.

Silent Hill f is beautiful, haunting, and utterly unforgettable.

Silent Hill f's frustrating first-half is outweighed by a brilliant, delirious second that's well worth the initial slog.

Konami reintroduces the Silent Hill franchise into the modern day with the first new flagship game since 2012, Silent Hill f was announced during the Silent Hill Transmission on October 19 2022.

Silent Hill f is the first full original Silent Hill game in 13 years, but maybe offers too much of a new take on the series, barely resembling a Silent Hill game. Although it has a story worth experiencing, its strictly linear action-horror gameplay makes this nightmarish descent a struggle to get through.

It may not be set in the titular town, but Silent Hill f undoubtedly encompasses the essence of the series with a dark, twisted, and emotionally weighty tale of psychological horror. It also takes plenty of imaginative and creative risks that are fantastic and flawed in equal measure. It would be an even more special game if only it weren't plagued by an inconsistent atmosphere and some of the most miserable combat I've ever experienced.

There's nothing I love more in life than a piece of art that triggers a desire for discussion, and in the face of my own assumptions, Silent Hill f has done that for me. Its combat, its new setting, or even its subject matter might not do that for you, but the bottom line is, it turns out that even after all these years, Silent Hill can still strike up an exciting conversation.
