Dusk Golem, an insider who specialises in information regarding horror games, has revealed that the remake of Silent Hill 1 has been in development for roughly three years now. The insider has been accurate with his information many times, as he recently revealed some details about Resident Evil 9, which have since proven to be true. 

He further states that the game will be released in 2027, so the overall development time will be stretched to 5 years. This seems like a reasonable development for a remake that is potentially being developed in Unreal Engine 5. It is generally assumed that the game will be developed using UE5, but this hasn’t been officially confirmed yet. 

Still, there is plenty of time left until the game’s release, but horror genre fans need not worry, as many good games are on the way.
