While details on the Vita re-releases are slim at this point, they will likely feature the addition of some Vita-specific features such as touch controls, and will inevitably have upgraded graphics as well as the addition of trophies.Ĭurrently, the only Silent Hill game properly available for PlayStation Vita is action-based spin-off, Silent Hill: Book of Memories, which was more negatively received by critics and fans than the majority of the series. Silent Hill: Shattered Memories is a remake of said original game, with several overhauled mechanics, improved graphics and a complete removal of combat elements, centering on protagonist, Harry Mason as he desperately tries to find his missing daughter in the nightmarish town.īoth games received mostly positive reception during their original releases on PlayStation Portable and somewhat less so on PlayStation 2, though Silent Hill: Shattered Memories was considered to be ideally experienced on Wii. Silent Hill: Origins, as its title suggests, is a series prequel that follows trucker, Travis Grady getting lost in the foggy, unsettling town of psychological hellspawn several years before the events of the original Silent Hill game. Both games previously released for Sony’s prior PlayStation Portable handheld and PlayStation 2 console, and Silent Hill: Shattered Memories even made it to Nintendo’s Wii as well. Silent Hill: Origins and Silent Hill: Shattered Memories will both be downloadable for a price to be determined in North America (likely $9.99, as they’re around that sum for the confirmed European price), at an unspecified date this year. While we wait for Konami to announce some new entries however, we can at least look forward to re-experiencing some of the old ones, as two prior portable favourites will be coming to the PlayStation Store for PlayStation Vita. The Silent Hill series has been, ahem, quiet lately.
