Silent Hill: Townfall developer No Code was completely unaware that Konami had commissioned multiple rival studios to revive the classic survival horror franchise until the publisher announced them publicly.
The Scottish studio discovered the existence of Bloober Team's Silent Hill 2 remake and Neobards Entertainment's Silent Hill f alongside everyday gamers during Konami's initial reveal stream.
Konami reportedly maintained complete secrecy across development partners deliberately, wanting each independent team to interpret the horror series from scratch without cross-project influence.
The fragmented publisher strategy appears to be paying off following strong commercial and critical returns for the newly launched Silent Hill 2 remake on PlayStation 5 and PC.
