With Silent Hill: Townfall on the horizon, there’s never been a better time to talk horror.
It’s a great time to be a horror fan, with Konami firmly setting its sights back on gaming through Silent Hill 2 and Silent Hill: The Short Message, while Capcom continues pushing the genre forward with games like Resident Evil Requiem. We’re truly in the midst of a horror renaissance.
We sat down with Jon McKellan, director of Silent Hill: Townfall and founder of developer Screen Burn, alongside Silent Hill series producer Motoi Okamoto, to talk about the nightmarish setting of St. Amelia, new protagonist Simon, the game’s 1990s setting, its first-person perspective, and much more. @silenthillofficial
