There are exciting developments for horror game enthusiasts at Sony. The classic survival-horror series Siren may be making a return for PlayStation 5. The company has obtained a rating for the game in South Korea, indicating that it could be released there in some form.
Exciting News for the PlayStation 2 Classic Siren
It’s not yet clear what exactly the rating in South Korea entails. The chances of a sequel or a remake seem low. There are speculations that Sony may offer PlayStation 2 games on PS4 and PS5.
Sony has developed a new emulator that allows PS2, PS3, and PS4 games to run with improved performance on PS5. This emulator features options like switching between screens, rewinding gameplay, and increasing resolutions. The rating for Siren suggests that the game could come to PS5 using this technology.
Ken Kutaragi, also known as the 'Father of PlayStation,' made some quite interesting statements regarding the first released PlayStation.
While a completely new Siren game would undoubtedly be met with great enthusiasm, it’s important to note that Sony appears to be focusing on the emulator project rather than developing a new game. Nonetheless, this could provide an opportunity for those wanting to experience the iconic series again.
For those missing Siren’s unique atmosphere, they can look forward to Slitterhead, a project from Silent Hill director Keiichiro Toyama, which will be released for PS5 and PS4. This independent project features Siren’s signature “Sightjacking” mechanic and psychological horror elements.
