Bloober Team offers update on Silent Hill 1 Remake

As a studio, Bloober Team have had an interesting trajectory, with the horror-focused game developers having released a slew of decently-received titles for most of its existence. That said, the recent commercial and critical success of both Silent Hill 2 Remake and Cronos: The New Dawn has put them in the upper echelon of the genre. Now, the team have confirmed some additional development details on the much-anticipated Silent Hill 1 Remake.

Making the announcement as part of their ‘investor chat’ (translated via ML), the Bloober Team ‘board’ offered an update on their current ongoing projects, revealing:

“We have two first party production teams, one of whom is working on the Silent Hill 1 project, and the other has started working on the next project. 5 projects are currently being implemented as part of the second party.”

While the studio did not specify how far into development any of the projects are currently, it is encouraging to see a dedicated team focused entirely on Silent Hill 1’s remake.

For context, following the successful release of Silent Hill 2 Remake last October, Bloober Team confirmed by December that the devs had moved over to their next project – later revealed to be the Silent Hill 1 Remake.

Given how it’s been less than a year since SH2’s release, don’t expect the next title any time soon. That said, it is exciting to hear that work seems to be progressing smoothly.

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.
