Konami may be looking to port the Silent Hill trilogy over to current-gen consoles, based on the latest information.
Speaking during an interview on the official Silent Hill YouTube channel, Rika Miyatani, Level Design Director at HEXADRIVE, stated that Konami had reached out to the studio about potentially porting the original Silent Hill trilogy to current-gen platforms.
