Konami, Annapurna Interactive and Screen Burn Interactive release Silent Hill: Townfall today for PlayStation 5 and PC, taking the psychological-horror series to the isolated Scottish community of St. Amelia in 1996. Players inhabit Simon Ordell, who returns to an island he does not recognise while fragments of his past begin emerging through the fog. Townfall is the first full-length Silent Hill presented entirely from a first-person perspective, but Screen Burn has resisted turning it into a straightforward shooter. Combat, stealth, exploration and narrative puzzles all revolve around the CRTV, a portable television device that detects threats, receives unstable signals and helps uncover clues. Some creatures can be fought; others make hiding a substantially healthier career choice. Player actions influence multiple endings, while a dynamic score by Pilotpriest reacts to stealth and combat. Townfall also continues Konami's remarkable modern Silent Hill revival after Silent Hill 2 and Silent Hill f, but its Scottish setting and Screen Burn's design sensibilities give it room to establish a separate identity. Silent Hill has spent decades demonstrating that fog is cheaper than therapy. St. Amelia now has its opportunity to contribute to the research.
