Silent Hill f marks a significant milestone in the franchise: it's the first Silent Hill game to receive an 18+ rating in Japan. As revealed in the Japanese-language trailer, the game boasts a Mature rating in the US, PEGI 18 in Europe, and a CERO:Z rating in Japan. While this certification is subject to change, it's a notable departure from previous entries. Silent Hill, Silent Hill 2, Silent Hill 3, and Silent Hill: The Room all received CERO:C ratings (15+), a trend also followed by many other games in the series, both domestically and internationally.
Even the Silent Hill 2 Remake, despite its mature rating in Western markets, only achieved a CERO:C rating in Japan. This makes Silent Hill f's CERO:Z rating particularly noteworthy.
Konami's recent Silent Hill Transmission focused entirely on Silent Hill f, the first mainline entry in thirteen years. First announced in 2022, the game transports players to 1960s Japan, where they follow Shimizu Hinako, a teenager grappling with societal pressures. The story, penned by Ryukishi07 (creator of the When They Cry visual novel series), promises a gripping narrative.

The reveal trailer offers glimpses of Hinako's harrowing journey, showcasing her distress amidst blood, wounds, and a torn uniform. While gameplay was limited, the trailer provided extended looks at the game's setting, monster designs, and what appears to be a unique "Otherworld" filled with blood-red flowers, a departure from previous iterations.
Currently, there's no release date for Silent Hill f, and no new information was shared regarding No Code's Silent Hill Townfall.
