The most recent State of Play had a lot to offer, especially for horror fans who have been waiting patiently for more news concerning the upcoming Silent Hill 2 remake, and while this may not be the remake fans were hoping for, it is a way to pass the time until we get it.
Silent Hill: The Short Message is a new short-form Silent Hill experience that will cover contemporary problems for a younger audience. "We wanted to make a new, modern Silent Hill," producer at Konami, Motoi Okamoto, explained in a blog post. "We ended up looking at how modern youth communicate online and through phones, and the role that could play in a psychological horror story. For instance, a frightening thing about social media is how even insignificant individual comments can, en masse, build and build until they become this overwhelming wave of hate."
