Konami has announced that Silent Hill 8 is set to scare the pants off Xbox 360 and PS3 owners come 2011. Players will once again find themselves “face to face with their deepest sins and fears in the strange world of Silent Hill.”
The survival horror experience begins after a prison transport vehicle crashes off the road, leaving lone inmate Murphy Pendleton stranded in Silent Hill.
The game is set to feature the usual blend of puzzles and horrific creatures – and fighting them off hasn’t gotten any easier as you will have to use what you have to hand, such as wooden chairs and glass bottles. Fighting isn’t the only way though, as you are left with the age old decision of ‘fight or flight.’
In addition to the main storyline, players will also be presented with variable side quests along the way that can change depending on their play style, revealing unknown evils within the town.
UPDATE – the trailer has been added to the article.

Silent Hill is always a series I look forward to a new game from, although I was disappointed with SH4 and SH:H in an extreme way I thought Origins was a return to form. Also, I dunno a studio name like Vatra just seems to suit the silent hill series. This next installment looks good though. Wish they wouldn’t have added in the movie-esqe world transformation that was in SH:H though, I always think the transformation and the monsters should be individual to the characters personality
