Polish game studio Bloober Team, known for their work on horror games like Observer, Blair Witch, and The Medium, is teaming up with Konami in some form. The two companies announced a "strategic partnership" that they've agreed to, which involves "jointly developing selected contents" and "exchanging know-how". Konami has scaled back its video game productions in recent years, but this announcement stokes the fires of rumors that have been circulating regarding the possible revival of Silent Hills.

We have been providing unique entertainment content and ways to enjoy it through the use of information technology. In the digital entertainment industry, significant changes in the business environment are expected in the future. We look forward to combining Bloober Team’s and our respective characteristics and strengths to create high-quality contents. KONAMI – comments Hideki Hayakawa Representative Director, President Konami Digital Entertainment

That's kinda sus of them, especially after getting rid of kojima, though I guess they still have the fox engine but still...

 

[Skelletonike]

I'm all for Silent Hill.

I never cared much for the Metal Gear games, so I didn't care that Kojima left. I was however, saddened that they abandoned so many of their good IP's

Like Suikoden, Far East of Eden, Lost in Blue, etc... Damn, just thinking about it makes me sad.

Making the unnecessary and unlikely hope for Boktai. Because I'm sure nobody else was thinking this lol.

well, they released ddr A, and community reaction to that was ok(not enough hard songs, you can still get a much better experience by using stepmania/one of it's forks but that's a topic for a whole nother time)
