Story
In 1960s Japan, teenager Shimizu Hinako lives in the small, remote town of Ebisugaoka, nestled in a mountain pass. An average teen, she passes the time with nothing particularly special about her life.
Until, that is, a deep fog descends on Ebisugaoka, and everything Hinako knows crumbles as she finds her once-familiar home infested with spreading danger, the town empty except for the horrors teeming in the fog.
Now, as she navigates the twisting paths of Ebisugaoka, Hinako must solve puzzles and fight for her life in her struggle to survive.
Her struggle to reach the inevitable decision that must be made. And her struggle to put an end to that which must be slain.
Will she choose to embrace elegance and beauty? Or will her path lead her to madness and horror…
A story of impossible decisions, of the beauty in terror, and terror from beauty.

Hopefully this turns out as well as the SH2 remake did. The setting definitely has a lot of potential for a horror game.
Loving the setting. May be the first silent Hill game I indulge in.
There were some nice moments of horror in that trailer! I'm in.
Bring it to Game Pass
As a lifelong Silent Hill fan since the original release in 1999, I've been trying to figure out the meaning of the subletter f in the title. I was thinking it could just correspond to its place in the franchise, but only if you ignore two releases:
A) Silent Hill (PSone)
B) Silent Hill 2 (PS2)
C) Silent Hill 3 (PS2)
D) Silent Hill 4: The Room (PS2)
E) Silent Hill Origins (Zero in Japan) (PSP, later released on PS2)
F) (to be skipped maybe?) Silent Hill Homecoming (PS3)
G) (to be skipped as well?) Silent Hill Downpour (PS3)
Homecoming and Downpour are the two that a lot would consider to not be part of the "core" games, as they were the two not developed with really any input from the original Team Silent members. Origins was the first game developed outside from Japan, by Climax, but it still had input from them in a lot of areas. Homecoming still had the amazing Akira Yamaoka as the composer, but that was about it. Downpour had nobody.
So yeah, it's possible Konami considers the core games to consist of 1-4 and Origins/Zero, with Silent Hill f being the next, and the two PS3 games Homecoming and Downpour being "outside" the mainline.
To me the f looks like a function in mathematics: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_(mathematics)
Oh yeah, with the way it is stylized it does look like that.
Current gen only- YESSS!!
