Silent Hill f: An Independent Work from the Series
A Standalone Game That Can Be Enjoyed by Newcomers
Silent Hill enthusiasts have been curious about the placement of Silent Hill f within the series' timeline. Konami clarified via a tweet on Twitter (X) on May 20 that Silent Hill f is a standalone game, distinct from the main series. This makes it an excellent choice for those new to the franchise.
Despite its independence, the developers have included subtle nods to previous games, as mentioned during the Silent Hill Transmission in March. This connection to the series' roots, while maintaining a separate storyline, is a testament to the game's design.
The setting of Silent Hill f diverges significantly from the classic Silent Hill series. While the original games are set in the 1990s USA, Silent Hill f takes place in 1960s Japan. Konami assures fans that despite this shift, the game will deliver the psychological horror the series is renowned for.
