On a side note, there are rumors of Konami selling the IP to Kojima currently. This was pretty big on the SH reddit a week or two back. The source isn't trustworthy but according to the mods, he provided proof via PMs. They said the proof was enough to convince them to at least keep the thread up. They still advise to take with a HUGE grain of salt since the proof isn't without a doubt real.
It's also worth noting that Konami renewed the trademark a month or two ago too. The last time they did it, the trademark was tagged for gambling (the usual bullshit). This most recent time, it was tagged for video gaming. Still not something to jump out of your chair about since they're most likely renewing the trademark for rights reasons.
Even all that combined with the domain name being sold shouldn't really give you any hope of an SH in development. It's a lot of movement that all means nothing. Here's the thread for anyone that cares:
EDIT: I forgot. All of this also lines up with Kojima's recent tweets and statements about wanting to do a horror game. Still, a bunch of movement that means nothing.
There’s also this, if we’re talking about rumors.
Yeah, someone made a thread about that on the SH reddit not too long ago too. Apparently the entry was updated early September (?) and it was there for months. I believe it was originally "Project Mist" before being renamed. I left it out because of all the pieces of "evidence", that Wiki entry was the most tenuous.
My bad about the "Selling the IP to Kojima" detail in me post. I misread "Konami will land the Silent Hill IP to Kojima productions" in the original post.
That's a pretty cool idea, actually.Hopefully it’s true, silent hill is a game that suits kojima’s game design philosophy perfectly. I’m very disappointed at death stranding but if he’s doing a silent hill game then I’ll still be as hyped. If this doesn’t happen I hope Sony will ask Kojima to reboot Siren which I’m also very interested to see what kojiPro can do.
