The Short Message Appears on Another Ratings Board

Konami revealed an array of Silent Hill video games at its latest showcase, however one title was noticeably absent. Something known as Silent Hill: The Short Message had leaked beforehand, and whereas it nonetheless hasn’t been formally unveiled, it has appeared on one more scores board.

As picked up by Gematsu, a PlayStation 5 itemizing for Silent Hill: The Short Message popped up on the Taiwan Digital Game Rating Committee web site. Google Translate notes that there’s violence, horror, and inappropriate language and has a unfastened abstract of its plot. It describes a major character making an attempt to satisfy up with their pal earlier than coming to an deserted condo and changing into trapped inside it. The protagonist should then escape their very own fears and “discover the truth” earlier than “her own trauma consumes her will to survive.” An identical however much less detailed itemizing additionally popped up on a Korean scores board in September.

This latest description sounds a like one of many Silent Hill video games in prior leaks. Insider Dusk Golem leaked images from a reported Silent Hill recreation in May 2022.
