Ryukishi07, author of “Higurashi when they cry” and “Umineko when they cry”, signs the story of the game, bringing his characteristic mix of psychological horror and emotional narration. Ryukishi07 describes his involvement as a profoundly personal experience: “Even today I remember the feeling of my first meeting with the suffocating and oppressive atmosphere of Silent Hill. He never stopped obsessed and fascinating me. It is an honor to be involved in a series that I am very tied to. I poured all my efforts in this story, so much so that I don’t think I would mind if it were my latest creation. For me, the Silent Hill series is more than a simple collection of stories, it is a means; An incredible and phenomenal way to explore and experience a person’s heart and mind. I hope the players will appreciate it in the same way. For all our overseas friends, I hope you will like to take a look at how Silent Hill could be if it was set in a somewhat different place, like Japan“.”
