Silent Hill f has sold over 2 million copies since its September 2025 release, received a Metascore of 86 on PS5, and continues to receive post-launch content such as a free Fatal Frame collaboration costume.

Synthesized from 3 Yomimono stories · updated Jun 30

Konami's Silent Hill f, a psychological horror game set in 1960s rural Japan and written by Ryukishi07, launched in September 2025. By June 2026 it had sold over 2 million copies worldwide and earned a Metascore of 86 on PS5. The game's commercial performance and critical reception established it as a standalone hit that did not rely on series continuity.

Post-launch support has included free cosmetic content. On June 26, 2026, Konami released a free collaboration costume named "Crimson Butterfly" based on Mio Amakura from Koei Tecmo's Fatal Frame: Crimson Butterfly Remake. The costume changes the appearance of protagonist Hinako Fukami to that of Mio Amakura and requires patch 1.20. It is purely cosmetic and does not add new scenarios, stages, or game modes. A 50% off sale on Steam and the PlayStation Store ran alongside the update for both Silent Hill f and Silent Hill 2, and a bundle offering a discount on both Silent Hill f and Fatal Frame: Crimson Butterfly Remake was also available on Steam.

In May 2026, Silent Hill f won Best Video Game Trailer at the Golden Trailer Awards. The game's marketing success, commercial milestone, and cross-publisher crossover with Fatal Frame reflect its position as a revived entry in the Silent Hill series that has attracted both new players and series fans.
