Silent Hill f is an "Independent Work from the Series"
A Standalone Game That Can Be Enjoyed by Newcomers
Silent Hill fans have been curious about where the upcoming Silent Hill f fits into the series' timeline. However, a tweet from Konami posted on Twitter (X) on May 20 clarified that Silent Hill f is a standalone game, distinct from the main series, and thus perfect for newcomers to enjoy.
While it stands on its own, the developers have not shied away from incorporating subtle nods to previous games, as mentioned during the Silent Hill Transmission in March.
The connection to the iconic town of Silent Hill might seem a stretch, given the original series was set in the 1990s USA, while Silent Hill f takes place in 1960s Japan. Despite this shift in setting, Konami has reassured fans that the game will deliver the psychological horror the series is renowned for.
