Contrary to what most expected until quite recently, the Silent Hill 2 remake has turned out to be a critical and commercial success, and sure enough, the question on many minds now seems to be whether developer Bloober Team will be working on more games in the series in the future. As per the studio itself, that’s very much a possibility.
Speaking in a recent interview with IGN, Wojciech Piejko – game director and designer at Bloober Team – stated that the studio is “open” to working on another Silent Hill remake, or even an entirely new entry in the franchise.
“I think we are always open,” Piejko said upon being asked the question. “If we like the opportunity, we’ll take it.”
“There are opportunities that you have to seize,” he added. “Like Silent Hill 2, you can remake the legend. So yeah, I do believe that everything’s possible.”
This isn’t the first time Bloober Team has suggested it could continue to work on Silent Hill. Shortly prior to the recent remake’s release, CEO Piotr Babieno said that it was “not the end of the adventure with Konami” for Bloobter Team. Meanwhile, in an interview with GamingBolt last year, when asked about the possibility of future Silent Hill 2 producer Maciej Głomb said, “never say never.” Read more on that through here.
Silent Hill 2 sold over a million units in its first three days, and has enjoyed widespread critical acclaim, so presumably, Konami will be happy with its performance- hopefully enough to greenlight a follow-up with Bloober Team onboard.
Meanwhile, Bloober Team recently announced Cronos: The New Dawn, a sci-fi survival horror title due out next year. Read more on its premise through here.
