Which consoles and platforms can play Silent Hill Townfall?
Konami has confirmed that Silent Hill Townfall will be released on PS5 and PC (via Epic Games Store and Steam).
As of writing, the game has not been confirmed for Xbox Series X/S or Nintendo Switch 2.
While there has been no official word on this being the case, the Silent Hill 2 remake was a timed exclusive for PS5 and it eventually launched on Xbox Series X/S around a year later. So there may be some hope for those without a PS5 that Townfall might follow a similar release pattern.
Silent Hill Townfall gameplay and story details
Silent Hill Townfall is a brand-new Silent Hill game set in the unsettling (fictional) Scottish island town of St. Amelia in 1996, a location based on the very real village of St Monans in Fife. This seemingly abandoned town beneath heavy fog is sure to be nice and friendly, right?
Well, it’ll be up to you – playing as Simon Ordell – to figure everything out and to “put things right”.
According to the game’s official site, Simon “wakes up at St. Amelia… All he has on him besides his clothes are an IV bag and a medical wristband with his name on it. He heads to the town with no leads but the voices from the CRTV he picked up along the way.”
The CRTV is an item that will seemingly play an important role in Silent Hill Townfall’s story and gameplay.
This small portable TV will receive signals that should help you uncover the mystery of St. Amelia.
Played entirely in first-person, Townfall is a self-contained entry into the series, meaning you won’t have to have played any of the other Silent Hill games to understand what’s going on.
You’ll evade enemies and fight against them with a limited set of tools and weapons, just as you’d expect in a Silent Hill game.
Is there a Silent Hill Townfall trailer?
Yes, there is a Silent Hill Townfall trailer! Check out the official reveal trailer for Townfall above to see the creepy-looking horror game, including its setting, main character, and gameplay in action.
