Silent Hill: Konami works on second and third wave of new games

• In the reporting, he does not name any titles, counts, or release dates for those next projects.
• The first wave is linked in the articles to Silent Hill 2 remake, Silent Hill f, and Silent Hill: Townfall.

What happened

Motoi Okamoto said in an interview picked up via Famitsu that Konami is looking beyond the first batch of Silent Hill projects. According to the reporting, the company is already thinking about a “second and third wave” of new Silent Hill games. IGN published an article on October 9, 2026, titled “Konami Planning 'Second and Third Waves' of New Silent Hill Games,” which focused on Okamoto’s comments.

Okamoto also said Konami cannot share specific details about those next plans yet. In the supplied reporting, he says the company is looking at multiple projects for the franchise, but without naming titles, giving a number, or outlining a timeline. The external context also notes that the producer spoke about “a number of projects” following the success of the first wave.

The same reporting says the three previously announced Silent Hill titles have now been successfully released. Those are Silent Hill 2 remake, Silent Hill f, and Silent Hill: Townfall, which are described as the first wave of the series’ return. The supplied context also says Okamoto stated that “all three titles we initially announced were able to be released successfully,” which underpins the conclusion that Konami sees the first announcement round as complete.

Background

The reporting fits into Konami’s broader Silent Hill revival. In the supplied sources, the first wave is tied to Silent Hill 2 remake, Silent Hill f, and Silent Hill: Townfall. IGN’s external context explicitly says these titles “rolled out throughout the last few years,” framing the franchise’s return as a multi-year release cycle.

IGN also says Townfall was the most recent title in that wave and that the game arrived last month. In the same context, the main character Simon Ordell is mentioned, along with a setting in “’90s Scotland.” That detail comes from the supplied external context and places Okamoto’s comments in a period where the first announced projects have, according to the reporting, already been completed and released.

The external context also shows that multiple outlets are carrying the same core point. Metro reports that Okamoto, speaking to Famitsu, looked back at the titles announced during Silent Hill Transmission in 2022 and said they have all now been released. TechPowerUp quotes the same idea and says “all three titles we initially announced were able to be released successfully,” while PSU summarizes it as Konami “looking at a number of projects” after the success of the first wave.

That makes the core of the news clear: Konami, through its producer, is confirming that the franchise will not stop at the first announced batch, but the publisher has not shared an official list of follow-up titles. The available reporting also leaves out release dates, platform details, and any confirmation that the second and third waves are already in active development. The open questions in the supplied fact report therefore remain, especially around the names of the next Silent Hill projects and how Konami is categorizing them internally.
