Konami belatedly realises hey, we might have something here, as the first properly new Silent Hill in 13 years sells over 2 million

A Japanese schoolgirl, partially obscured by red flowers.

Konami has been gradually easing itself back into the business of making proper videogames in recent years and, as well as reviving the Metal Gear series with the Master Collection and an excellent remake of MGS3, has both remade Silent Hill 2 and co-developed Silent Hill f, the first properly new entry in the series since 2012's poorly received Downfall.

And the good news? It was great! We're never going back to the halcyon days of Team Silent, but PCG's Elie Gould reckoned this was "a true return to form" that received a stonking 90% in our review: "A game that not only can stand proudly shoulder to shoulder with other goliaths in the series, but one that is brave enough to take risks and deploy changes to set the groundwork for what I hope to be the new standard of Silent Hill games going forward."
