Silent Hill F, the first all-new game in the series after a long hiatus and first set in Japan, has achieved record-breaking success, far outpacing its predecessor, Silent Hill 2 Remake. The horror legend is rising from the ashes.

Six Days After Silent Hill F Remake

Konami has rocked the gaming world with the success of Silent Hill F, the highly anticipated new installment in the Silent Hill series, since its release. Officially released on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S on September 25, 2026, the game broke the record by surpassing 1 million copies sold just one day later, on September 26, 2026.

This figure is the strongest evidence of Konami’s Silent Hill revival, launched in collaboration with Bloober Team, which has exceeded player expectations.

The success of Silent Hill F is seen as a significant milestone in the series’ comeback. Last year’s critically acclaimed Silent Hill 2 Remake took a full week to reach 1 million sales. Konami’s latest brand-new game achieved this feat a full six days faster, demonstrating the series’ growing fanbase and the growing confidence in its new direction.

Announcing the sales figures, Konami stated, “Silent Hill 2’s remake surpassed one million units worldwide just one week later, but Silent Hill is growing shipments even faster in every region, including Japan.”

Silent Hill’s success is all the more remarkable considering the game’s radical changes. For the first time in the series’ history, the game takes place in Japan rather than the US, and it represented Konami’s first brand-new venture in years, posing significant risks. This powerful return proved that one of the video game industry’s most influential horror franchises is back, proving that both a nostalgia-driven remake and a brand-new game with significant moves and risks can simultaneously achieve great heights.
