Konami has been upping Silent Hill's social media presence, and fans of the horror game series are getting excited. A new Twitter , and some cryptic tweets from Konami itself, has more than a few thinking we might finally get a substantial announcement for the iconic franchise.
Let's start with Dead By Daylight, and that any genuine news would come from an event, or the official Silent Hill twitter.
The internet being the internet, everyone then went to the official Silent Hill twitter , which was only started in July, expecting a further tease. They were met with an ad for a t-shirt, some fanart retweets, a link to the Silent Hill comics from IDW, and a few screenshots from Dead By Daylight. The disappointment rolled in like a thick fog.
Some are adamant this means something, proclaiming that a new game is definitely coming, or speculating that a remaster of Silent Hill 2 is in development. It's the same clutching at straws that occurred earlier this year, looking into ways to deliver the next Silent Hill game back in January, but that's all we've definitively heard since.
Easy there internet. We were watching streams of Dead By Daylight and thought we would share the noise and feel of being hunted. We wont take the tweet down and "backpedal", we just wanted you to enjoy it.

An official Twitter can be a good sign, multiplayer game, it seems likely Konami just figured it was time the series had a social medial presence of its own.
Welcome.

Nonetheless, famed Silent Hill composer Akira Yamaoka is keeping busy, working on a Xbox Games Showcase.
