 Hey there lads and ladies, it is Petrifying Pumpkins here and today I am back with a brand new video. This one is all about silent hills and it has me incredibly excited. But before I jump into the video, let me just give a disclaimer that everything I'm talking about here, completely rumors, alright? All of it's rumors. So even though these rumors are coming from reliable sources and all that kind of stuff, none of this is set in stone and a thing could change. So please keep that in mind while you're watching this video. So with that said, let's just jump right in. So this all begins with some tweets from a Twitter user who goes by the name of Aesthetic Gamer. Now you may remember this guy if you've been keeping tabs on the Resident Evil A's leaks that have been going on with the werewolves and all that kind of stuff. He's behind some of those leaks and he does have a proven track record when it comes to Resident Evil at least. So now he's dropping some information about Silent Hills. So he claims that Konami who are the company who own the rights to Silent Hills, you know they all metal your solid, all these other kind of IPs. They've been reaching out a couple of years ago to other developers. They want them to start working on new Silent Hill games too, to be precise. They want a soft Reboose and they want another game to go alongside the soft Reboose and this game will be more like an Untell Dawn or a telltale game where you're making decisions and those decisions affect the outcome of the story, one of those. So we can assume that the Reboose or the soft Reboose will be more like the original games. Now just in case you're wondering what exactly a soft Reboose is, I would say the best example is probably 2018's God of War. If you've played that, it completely changed how the game was played. It feels completely fresh, completely new, but at the same time the events of the first three games or the first four or five games, whatever it was, they're all still canon. That didn't change. So in a way, God of War's gameplay got a soft Reboose if you know what I mean. So we don't know what form a soft Reboose would take with a new Silent Hill game. It could be that it'll be all first person now and all that. That might constitute a soft Reboose in this case. We'll just have to wait and see. So meanwhile, while a static gamer's been tweeting this, if you take a look at Hideo Kojima's Twitter, he not so long ago tweeted that his next game, or at least he heavily implied that his next game was going to have something to do with horror based on this tweet. We also have the creature designer for the first three Silent Hill games. And he's over on Twitter saying that he's working on a new project that he hopes doesn't get cancelled. Now, there is also a website called Relay on Horror. They cover all kinds of horror things and they claim that they have their own separate source and that these sources are backing up what a static gamer is saying. So later, in response to these claims, Konami themselves issued a statement which said the following. We cannot share anything at this point, but we are listening to customer feedback and considering ways to provide the next title, said a spokesman. So that's basically confirmation that Konami are saying, yeah, we're looking into Silent Hills, we've got nothing to announce yet, but it is in the pipeline, so you know, keep an eye out on this. So now more recently, that same website again, Relay on Horror, they've come forward, they've said their insider has given them even more information. And this inside information is claiming that Sony are the driving force behind these two new Silent Hill games. So according to this guy, Sony are putting Hideo Kojima at a table, they're putting Konami at a table, they're trying to smooth out those relations. Of course, famously Konami Kojima had a huge follow back in 2015. So it looks like Sony are coming along, they're trying to smooth that out so that Kojima can get back into Silent Hill. So this insider claims that the story driven decision based game is the one that maybe Kojima will be getting and that this one would be a revival of Silent Hills, which of course is the game that we're all looking forward to back in 2015, got cancelled, broke my heart. I don't know about you, but that was like, I was super hyped about that game. So absolutely disgusted when it got cancelled, so you can imagine, I'm really, really hype about this, I'm hoping it comes true. Of course, keeping in mind that Sony are the driving force behind this, so there's a good chance that these titles will be PS5 exclusives. Not confirmed of course, maybe they'll come to Xbox, maybe they'll come to PC, but at least guaranteed PS5 with Sony pushing. So the website Rely On Horror states the following. Our first source, who we've come to trust well, indicates to Kechiro Toyama, who is the director and riser of the original 1999 Silent Hill, and Akira Yamaoka, composer for the majority of the franchise, are also returning alongside Mashahiro Ito. Now he is the creature designer that I mentioned earlier on. The trio will helm a soft reboot of the Silent Hill series, possibly just called Silent Hill. Sony Interactive Entertainment Japan Studio, which possibly includes team members from Project Siren, the group behind Siren Blood Curse for the PS3, will be behind its development in some capacity, either in full or impaired. Our sources state that this title has been in the works for about a year. The second Silent Hill title referenced in previous rumors is still being worked out at the moment, but it's looking as if it very well could be Silent Hill's Hideo Kojima's famously cancelled title. According to our first source, Sony is working to patch up the relationship between Kojima Productions and Konami in order to resurrect the game due to the amount of buzz and continued demand for us five years after its cancellation. Our second source shared this same information with us in the past, we can now report on this with some confidence in its legitimacy. Now this next part, you're going to want to keep your ears wide open, this is the one that's going to young, get your nips hard, get your moist, get your drippin, whatever, get the sponges ready. Source number one goes on to say that the game will even make use of the next generation PlayStation Virtual Reality headset for PlayStation 5. Allegedly, Sony has pitched the game to Kojima as a title more akin to a telltale slash supermassive and supermassive of the guys who met on Teldon, Narrative Driven title, which would offer him full creative freedom. Our source does emphasize however that Silent Hill's is not yet a done deal and that for now the only game in active development is the Reboose from SIE Japan Studio. While Sony is pushing for the series comeback, our sources do not say that they're out to own the Silent Hill IP, Sony and Konami are working together on these titles. So according to these rumors, Sony are working together with Konami to guess a Silent Hill title up and running on a PlayStation VR headset and might not be the one that we're using right now, it's probably going to be the next gen PSVR headset, but we'll assume it won't be compatible with what we have now. But anyway, that to me is just the hypest shit ever. The hypest thing you can imagine is Silent Hills on a next gen PlayStation Virtual Reality headset. Now, reading this, it's not very clear to me which two titles is going to be the one that's going to PlayStation Virtual Reality, maybe you guys can read it better than I can and can figure that out, but to me it seems like it could be either or maybe both. But anyway, as a huge PSVR fan, as a huge Silent Hill fan, Silent Hills 2, one of my favorite games of all time, and of course I'm a huge Hideo Kojima fan as well, love the Metal Gear Solid franchise, I will take whatever I can get out of this mix that's going on here. I mean the thoughts of Kojima making peace with Konami, Konami letting Kojima work on Silent Hills and making a PlayStation VR title possibly, is just nuts to me. Nuts. Anyway, enough about what I think, what do you think? Is this a title that will like, are you feeling what I'm feeling right now? Are you hype as hell right now? Is this a title that will make you go out and buy a PSVR Day 1 immediately? Or is this something that you be like, whoa, that's way too scary, I couldn't even do Resident Evil 7, there's no way I'm doing a Kojima made Silent Hills title? Let me know all that stuff in the comments below.
