Silent Hill composer hints at new game coming soon

Something scary might be headed this direction.

It sure sounds like something Silent Hill related is on the way.

That's going by a now-removed video interview done with franchise composer Akira Yamaoka with Al Hub on YouTube, in which the musician said that he had been working on a new project that's set to announced this summer.

"You’ll probably hear something this summer to be announced," Yamaoka said. “I think it’s the one you’re kinda hoping to hear about."

As mentioned before, the video had been pulled from YouTube, with AlHub saying: "We thank you for your support which contributed to the spread of the interview that we published yesterday with Akira Yamaoka around the world.
