Good atmosphere and art but weird flaws and frustrating moments. Best for diehard fans.

Fresh visuals but severe shader stutter on PC. Performance issues even on high-end hardware.

Instant classic and Konamis most significant redemption. Unbelievably good horror with phenomenal storytelling.

Unique 1960s Japan prequel with action-oriented mechanics. Rich symbolism but feels soulslike.

A phenomenal psychological horror and one of the best entries in the series, trading the small-town America setting for slow-burning Japanese horror with brilliant writing, spectacular visuals, and Akira Yamaoka's outstanding score. Engaging, more action-oriented combat with dodging and parrying, tense resource and weapon-durability management, and five meaningfully different endings make multiple playthroughs essential. A couple of convoluted puzzles drag and combat occasionally lacks feedback, but these are minor blemishes on a remarkable evolution.

    Watch
  • GmanLives👎 negative

    Gggmanlives criticizes Silent Hill F for abandoning core Silent Hill design elements in favor of an action-focused combat system with forced encounters. While the visuals and story are engaging, the game lacks the survival horror identity and dread that made earlier entries compelling.

    Watch
  • Second WindSecond Wind😐 mixed

    Yahtzee found Silent Hill f to be atmospherically engaging and genuinely scary with classic Silent Hill vibes, but was disappointed by its story, out-of-place boss fights, poor puzzle design, and the requirement of multiple playthroughs to get meaningful closure.

  • The Sphere Hunter😐 mixed

    A welcome return for the Silent Hill series that boldly establishes its own identity while maintaining the franchise's core horror mechanics. The creator praises its thematic consistency, Japanese cultural adaptation, and the way its narrative perfectly aligns with its combat-heavy gameplay.

    Watch
  • arhn.eu😐 mixed

    A fresh and unconventional entry in the Silent Hill series with compelling story and atmosphere, but experimental solutions and combat repetition divide opinions. Worth experiencing for its bold new direction despite not matching Silent Hill 2's legacy.

    Watch
  • Nautilus😐 mixed

    Silent Hill f tells one of the best horror stories of recent years through a nuanced narrative about a woman's struggle against patriarchal oppression. The game's thematic depth, symbolic monster design, and exploration of structural misogyny make it a standout entry in the horror genre.

    Watch
  • Dost Kayaoğlu👍 positive

    A brilliant horror game with an exceptional story and terrifying atmosphere that revitalizes the franchise, though poor combat mechanics and questionable pricing at $70 USD limit its overall value.

    Watch
  • RagnarRox😐 mixed

    An excellent survival horror game that stands with the original Silent Hill classics, featuring compelling integration of Japanese mythology and Shinto themes with mechanical design, though combat becomes repetitive in the final stretch.
