- Silent Hill 1 has entered full production at Bloober Team.
- The studio also has another undisclosed game in development.
- In total, the Polish developer is making 7 titles, with the other five being second-party collaborations.
Bloober Team has been on a roll since the release of Silent Hill 2 last year. The developer has since produced and launched two highly acclaimed horror games in the form of Cronos: The New Dawn and Silent Hill F.
The Latter became the fastest-selling title in the long-running Silent Hill franchise, selling a million copies in just a few days. Now, fans will be excited to find out that Bloober Team has yet another project from the franchise in full production already.
Why This Matters: Modern AAA gaming lacks quality games with such a small turnaround between sequels, so it’s nice to see a studio pull that off with an iconic franchise like Silent Hill.
In a new Q&A session with the investors, the developer revealed that one of its internal first-party teams is fully focused on the production of the Silent Hill 1 remake. Meanwhile, the other internal dev team is working on a mystery project which the studio is keeping under wraps.
Hence, we finally have confirmation that the Silent Hill 1 remake is in full production and that development is a bit along the way after the previous update. Furthermore, Bloober Team management also revealed that there are five more games in the works through second-party collaborations.
The Polish dev also updated fans regarding Cronos: The New Dawn’s performance, revealing that the game sold 200k copies at launch, with most of the sales being on PlayStation. The studio expressed confidence in the IP and is happy with the results, but thinks there is room for improvement.
All in all, a studio like Bloober Team working on the Silent Hill 1 remake is only good news, as the Polish developer has reinvigorated the franchise with minimal production time in between games.
The Silent Hill 2 remake sold 2 million units while garnering critical acclaim and multiple award nominations. Silent Hill F has only increased the confidence of fans in the studio, as many are calling the horror game the best in the series.
