The Silent Hill f review embargo has lifted, with early reactions to the game being predominantly positive. Looking at the actual scores, Silent Hill f is presently rated nearly as high as Bloober Team's critically acclaimed remake of Silent Hill 2.
Konami originally announced Silent Hill f in October 2022. Developed by Taiwanese studio Neobards Entertainment, the title is positioned as a spin-off, as underlined by the fact that it's the first series entry taking place in Japan. Set in the fictional town of Ebisugaoka during the 1960s, the survival horror game is scheduled to launch for PC and consoles on Thursday, September 25.
In the lead-up to this release, the Silent Hill f review embargo has lifted on September 22, giving way to an influx of predominantly positive reviews. The game presently holds the highest "Mighty" rating on OpenCritic, with an average score of 87 and an 88% reviewer recommendation rate. This puts it in the ballpark of the critically acclaimed Silent Hill 2 remake, which has an average rating of 87 on OpenCritic, although with a notably higher recommendation rate.
