Publisher Konami just sent along several new screenshots from Double Helix's Silent Hill: Homecoming (PS3, 360), showcasing a disturbing amount of undead cleavage. Silent Hill: Homecoming is slated to debut this September. For more, check out our recent hands-on preview and interview.

After a long presentation, a fair amount of hands-on time and a chat with lead designer Jason Allen, I still don't know what to make of Silent Hill 5--now known as Silent Hill Homecoming.

As the first American studio to handle a project in the long-running horror franchise, the team once called The Collective but now referred to as Double Helix seems to have done their homework.

There are zombie nurses, and foggy streets, and rusted walls. Doors are locked, and an unnecessary line of text tells us so in a way that only a Silent Hill game could. Hallways are dark, flashlights turned on. It all looks just as I would imagine a Silent Hill game to look on upgraded hardware.

But that's just it. It looks pretty much how I expected it would.

The developers are very honest about their approach: keep the horror... Read more

Konami has released a new set of screenshots from Silent Hill: Homecoming, which in development for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 at The Collective. The game, previously known as Silent Hill 5, is expected some time in September.

Publisher Konami has announced that the next entry in its creepy Silent Hill franchise has been retitled Silent Hill: Homecoming, with a European release set for the end September.

Handled by Marc Ecko's Getting Up (PC, PS2, Xbox) and Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Xbox) developer The Collective, Silent Hill: Homecoming is slated to arrive on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. The game stars new protagonist Alex Shepherd, who struggles "with his own grip on reality" as he pursues his missing brother.

A release date for the North American edition has not yet been announced, though it is likely to arrive within the same general timeframe as the European version.

New Silent Hill 5 screenshots have surfaced, offering a glimpse at both the PlayStation 3 and the Xbox 360 builds of the game. No release date has been announced for Konami's survival horror game sequel.

Konami confirmed previous reports of a fifth main entry in its avant-garde horror Silent Hill series at the company's E3 press conference in Santa Monica. The title will be available on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

"Working on these systems allows us to push the envelope of technology and bring the town to life like never before," said William Oertel, producer at Konami Digital Entertainment. "You will take on the role of Alex Shepherd, a soldier returning from a tour of duty overseas." As Alex, you'll arrive in the town of Silent Hill to look for your missing younger brother. Konami said Alex will make use of his military training to fend off the grotesques of the ill-fated town.

Famed series composer Akira Yamaoka will be returning to create an all-new soundtrack for the game.

Konami announced another game in the series, Silent Hill Origins, last year for the PlayStation Portable.
