Konami and Bloober Team are remaking the original Silent Hill

Engadgeta day ago

A remake of the original Silent Hill is in development, it was revealed during Konami's Press Start stream on Thursday. An image announcing that another Silent Hill game from developer Bloober Team was in the works appeared during the stream. It was accompanied by music from the first game in the series. The official Japanese Silent Hill account on X later clarified that Bloober is modernizing the original 1999 entry.
Back in February, it emerged that Bloober is making a new title based on Konami's intellectual property. The two companies previously worked on a remake of Silent Hill 2 , which was released in October and, by January, had sold more than 2 million copies. It was also one of our favorite games of 2024 .
So, going back to the game that started it all makes a lot of sense. Konami and Bloober haven't revealed any other details about the remake yet, such as when it's likely to arrive.
There was plenty more on offer during Konami's showcase, including a behind-the-scenes developer diary for Silent Hill f . The first game in the series to be set in Japan will drop on September 25 .
Before that, Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater (a remake of MGS 3 ) will hit PS5, PC and Xbox Series X/S on August 28 . Konami revealed on the stream that the Xbox version will include gameplay from the Bomberman series — the PlayStation and Steam variants have an Ape Escape tie-in. It also emerged that Metal Gear Solid Delta will have a brand-new multiplayer mode called Fox Hunt. This is a camouflage-based hide and seek mode that builds on the stealth aspect of the series. You can expect more details on that soon.
Press Start included looks at some other games, such as Suikoden Star Leap (a new RPG adventure set in the world of Suikoden for PC and mobile). Suikoden I&II HD Remasters are getting upgrades on Nintendo Switch 2 as well. A demo for action RPG Edens Zero (based on a manga and anime of the same name) has dropped, while there was a peek at action-adventure platformer Darwin's Paradox , in which you play as an octopus.

Nintendo's Kirby Teams up With Heinz for Limited-Edition Ketchup

Summary In a deliciously surprising move that has sent ripples of excitement through both the gaming and culinary communities,Nintendo's beloved pink puffball,Kirby, is once again lending his iconic charm toHeinz Japan. This month, the two giants are set to release a limited-edition collection of Kirby-themed ketchup bottles and exclusive keychains, cementing a partnership that truly embodies the phrase, 'Maxim Tomato meets tomato ketchup.' This isn't the first time Kirby has swallowed up a piece of the condiment world. Following a successful collaboration in 2024 that saw Kirby gracing ketchup pouches, Heinz Japan and HAL Laboratory (Kirby's developer) are upping the ante. The inspiration behind this whimsical alliance is ingeniously simple: the 'Maxim Tomato,' Kirby's signature health-restoring item in the games, provides a perfect thematic link to Heinz's globally renowned tomato-rich ketchup. Fans can look forward to three unique Kirby designs, along with an adorable cameo from Waddle Dee, all splashed across the familiar 420ml upside-down ketchup bottles. These limited-edition bottles, priced at ¥383 (approximately $2.65 USD), are rolling out across Japanese supermarkets and convenience stores throughout June 2025. Each design cleverly integrates Kirby and Waddle Dee alongside tomatoes and burgers within Heinz's iconic Keystone logo, making them instant collector's items. Adding another layer of collectibility, consumers in Japan will also have the chance to win an exclusive embroidered Kirby keychain featuring the Heinz logo. These highly sought-after keychains will be distributed to only 1,000 lucky winners through a designated social media quiz campaign on Heinz Japan's official X account. あれ?カービィとワドルディが… — ハインツ (@HeinzJapan)June 6, 2025 /​#星のカービィが#ハインツケチャップに再び登場!!\​ 今度は逆さボトルケチャップに登場✨3種類のカービィに、ワドルディも!6月から順次発売開始🍅 みんなはどれが欲しい?👀#ハインツカービィコラボ — ハインツ (@HeinzJapan)June 9, 2025 ニュースです〜っ!ハインツから「星のカービィ」のコラボケチャップが新たなパッケージで登場!今回は、ハインツの「トマトケチャップ 逆さボトル」に、カービィさんが3種類のポーズでデザインされています。われわれの仲間の姿も♪2025年6月から順次発売予定とのこと。これは要チェックっ! — 星のカービィ (@Kirby_JP)June 9, 2025
