RUMOR: Silent Hill 5 to be released this year?

Rumors regarding the next installment in Konami‘s hit Silent Hill series have started cropping up. This month’s issue of EGM included a short piece in its rumors section that pegged Silent Hill 5 as being prepped by Konami for release this year. The same piece also speculated that Silent Hill 5 will be handled by Konami in the US rather than in Japan.

On the more substantial side of things, Electric Shock Magazine [Dengeki Playstation] recently had an interview with chief director Masashi Tsuboyama about the upcoming Silent Hill 5. In the interview, Tsuboyama revealed that while they have yet to announce anything official, they are looking for a next gen console release and a possible multiplatform game.

Aside from stating the above information, Tsuboyama declined to give out more concrete info on Silent Hill 5. He did point fans towards Konami’s press conference on July 11. Although Tsuboyama did not promise anything Silent Hill 5-related to be presented in the press conference, it’s a good bet that any news regarding the game could come out around that time.
