REDWOOD CITY, CALIF. - January 9, 2004 - Leading videogame publisher, Konami Digital Entertainment - America, a subsidiary of Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc., today unveiled plans for a fourth terrifying installment of the wildly popular Silent Hill series. Continuing to blur the lines between reality and horrific alternate worlds, Silent Hill 4: The Room for the PlayStation®2 and Xbox? is set to once again strike terror into the hearts of gamers in Fall 2004.
Konami's Silent Hill® franchise first debuted on the PlayStation® in 1999, and established the series' brand of psychological horror. It went on to sell over a million units and is considered one of the scariest games of all time. The follow up sequel, Silent Hill® 2, was equally well received and praised for its use of new 3D sound technology that added a new dimension to gameplay. Silent Hill® 3 was released with critical acclaim for PlayStation®2 in August 2003 and is considered to be the best game in the series. The Silent Hill® franchise has also expanded into other entertainment genres including a major motion picture and comic series. French production company Davis Films will produce the feature film adaptation of the hit franchise for worldwide release and IDW will adapt the Silent Hill® franchise into a comic series starting in February 2004.
