Bloober Team, the developers behind the recently release psychological horror, The Medium, have revealed some information that points towards them working on the next Silent Hill title.

It has been reported in recent weeks that two new Silent Hill games are in developing, with different developers for each game after Konami outsourced development rather than doing it in-house.

Bloober Team CEO Piotr Babieno told GI.biz that the team is currently working on a new horror game from a “famous publisher”,

“We’ve been working for more than a year on another gaming project, another horror IP, and we’re doing this with a very famous gaming publisher. I can’t tell you who. I can’t tell you what the project is, but I’m pretty sure when people realize we’re working on it, they will be very excited.”

When it comes to horror games by “famous publishers” only two spring to mind, Resident Evil and Silent Hill, and we know Capcom haven’t handed over the reins to another developer which leaves Silent Hill as the likely candidate.

It could be theorized that they may have to take the helm for a spin-off title, such as Resident Evil Outrage, but Bloober Team has so far focused on psychological horror games, rather than more combat orientated games.

Silent Hill, while having a lot of combat, it a lot more psychological horror than the Resident Evil series so signs do point to Konami’s flagship horror game as being the IP.

It is also worth noting that Silent Hill composer Akira Yamaoka composed the soundtrack for The Medium and has stated he was working on a second Bloober Team project. Having the composer of the game currently working for them is a strong indicator too.

Nothing has been officially revealed yet, but it is believed the second Silent Hill game will be revealed this summer, and hopefully the Bloober Team game won’t be too far behind.
