Konami has been upping Silent Hill's social media presence, and fans of the horror game series are getting excited. A new Twitter account, and some cryptic tweets from Konami itself, has more than a few thinking we might finally get a substantial announcement for the iconic franchise.
Let's start with Konami's tweets. On July 31, the studio put up a video of the siren sound from Silent Hill 2, along with the caption "Close your eyes. Always scary. Silent Hill 2 siren.". This caused quite a stir, many taking it as the start of some promotion or other. Not the case, follow-up tweets saying it was just some nostalgia from the social media team watching people stream Dead By Daylight, and that any genuine news would come from an event, or the official Silent Hill twitter.
The internet being the internet, everyone then went to the official Silent Hill twitter account, which was only started in July, expecting a further tease. They were met with an ad for a t-shirt, some fanart retweets, a link to the Silent Hill comics from IDW, and a few screenshots from Dead By Daylight. The disappointment rolled in like a thick fog.
