Silent Hill f (PS5)

Silent Hill f is a bold new chapter in Konami’s iconic survival‑horror franchise — and the first mainline entry in over a decade. Developed by NeoBards Entertainment and written by acclaimed visual novel author Ryukishi07 (Higurashi, Umineko), it blends the series’ trademark psychological horror with a haunting 1960s rural Japan setting.

You play as Shimizu Hinako, a high‑school student whose hometown of Ebisugaoka is suddenly consumed by a thick, unnatural fog. As the familiar streets twist into grotesque nightmares, you must navigate shifting environments, solve intricate puzzles, and confront disturbing creatures rooted in Japanese folklore.

The game features multiple endings, a non‑linear narrative, and a playtime of around 12–13 hours per run. Combat mixes classic survival‑horror tension with “surprisingly exhilarating” counter‑attack mechanics, while exploration rewards careful observation and resource management.
