On Thursday, video game composer Akira Yamaoka<\/strong> teased a new, unspecified project he is working on in an interview with Al Hub<\/strong><\/em><\/a> that has now been deleted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While he has worked on a handful of games, Yamaoka’s most well-known work by far is his music from Konami<\/strong>‘s popular Silent Hill<\/em><\/strong> series. The franchise has not released a game since P.T.<\/em><\/strong> in 2014, a playable teaser designed by Hideo Kojima<\/strong> with the help of director Guillermo del Toro<\/strong>. P.T.<\/em> would have been followed by the series’ next true installment, Silent Hills<\/em><\/strong>, which Kojima and del Toro worked on before its cancellation in 2015.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ever since Silent Hills<\/em> was cancelled, no official announcements have been made about what is next for the series. There have been rumors last year of a supposed soft reboot game, as well as an episodic title reminiscent of the Telltale<\/strong> games. However, Yamaoka’s interview with Al Hub<\/em> following the release of his most recent project, The Medium<\/em><\/strong>, has sparked fan excitement about a potential Silent Hill<\/em> return.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While not offering much specifics on his future work, Yamaoka said that his next project would likely be revealed in the summer and that he thinks “it\u2019s the one you are [kind of] hoping to hear about.” Things then got more interesting when Al Hub<\/em> retracted the interview hours later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
