(UPDATE) Silent Hills has been cancelled

[WiiUBricker]

Last summer P.T. was released as a playable teaser for Silent Hills, Kojima Productions' take on the Silent Hill franchise. The official website now says that the demo will be pulled from the PS Store on Wednesday, April 29.

It looks like it isn't pulled for no reason as Guillermo del Toro, who was said to be involved alongside Hideo Kojima in the production of the game, said during the San Francisco International Film Festival that the game won't happen afterall. Toro's quote: "It's not gonna happen and that breaks my greasy heart." This was also confirmed by his assistent.

If you are yet to play P.T. but don't have a PS4, you can still add it to your download list and download it when you get a PS4. Note that this may require a PS+ membership on certain regions.

UPDATE: Silent Hills is officially cancelled according to Konami's statement to Kotaku.

Konami is committed to new Silent Hill titles, however the embryonic ‘Silent Hills’ project developed with Guillermo del Toro and featuring the likeness of Norman Reedus will not be continued.
In terms of Kojima and Del Toro being involved, discussions on future Silent Hill projects are currently underway, and please stay tuned for further announcements.

Wow that sucks, i was really looking forward to a full game of what was a great teaser. Time to drown my sorrows in some old school silent hill.

It does not.

Simply jump over to this link and then download it: https://store.playstation.com/#!/en-us/games/pt/cid=UP4511-CUSA01127_00-PPPPPPPPTTTTTTTT

I've downloaded it already because I want to try it out when I have my PS4.

PlayStation Store is accessible via PC/Internet Browser since a while now.

Sony has finally caught up to permitting users to use the PlayStation Store on non-PS devices, much like Microsoft has allowed for years. As for Nintendo.. I think they do but not in Europe.

He probably meant he added it to his library by hitting the download button.

Yeah.

Add to basket > Checkout > Purchase > Download History. It's that easy.

Even if the game is shitcanned, it's a needless, jerkass move to pull PT.

I know that. But you just added in your download list. Not actually downloaded the demo.

Yes it does. It says it's PS+ exclusive and your link says site is not available.

It's a region thing but it can be accessed either via a different browser or IP change.

As long as it's on the Download History list that's all that matters.

 

[netovsk]

Wise decision, I think they set the bar way too high with P.T.

Silent hills could never live up to it.

Nope dont have to be a ps+ member

Nope dont have to be a ps+ member

Yes you have. My PS+ membership is currently expired and I can't add it to my download list. It's asking me to get PS+ when I try to.
