Silent Hill ‘soft reboot’ rumoured to be announced soon

While Konami has denied rumours that a Silent Hill reboot is in the works, discussion has continued, with various leakers claiming that it is still in fact happening. If Silent Hill really is coming back, then we may find out about it quite soon, as it is tipped to be part of Sony's June State of Play. 

Known leaker ‘Dusk Golem' has taken to Twitter once again, claiming to have seen ‘solid evidence' that a new Silent Hill is getting announced in June.

They then go on to claim about knowing something that most people don't, which some are taking to mean VR support. Previously, Sony partnered with Capcom to get PlayStation VR support for Resident Evil VII, so we could see a similar deal in place with Konami for Silent Hill.

Other rumours point towards the new Silent Hill being a ‘soft reboot' developed by Sony Japan. If this all proves to be true, then we should find out during Sony's upcoming PS5 games showcase.

KitGuru Says: Sony's big June presentation is going to be highly anticipated. Do you think we'll see a new Silent Hill game?

KitGuru Games: DLSS 5 misses the point

It would be hard to argue that NVIDIA’s DLSS technologies haven’t been a net positive to the PC space, with the machine-learning based upscaler successfully translating lower resolution inputs into a final image which is perceivably sharper while hogging fewer resources. Though somewhat more contentious, the next evolution of DLSS came in the form of Frame Generation, using ML in order to generate additional frames for high-refresh rate gaming. Both techniques can have their issues, but generally speaking they’ve allowed for more people to experience higher-end titles at increased frame rates. DLSS 5, however, takes a sharp pivot, with a very different end goal in mind than the performance-boosting versions that came before.
