Report: Silent Hill 1 Remake Targeting 2027 Release, First Cast Details Revealed

October 26, 2026 5 min read

Konami and Bloober Team have officially confirmed that a remake of the original Silent Hill, released on PlayStation in 1999, is in development. A 2027 launch is being reported, but Konami has not announced a release date, platforms, price, edition plans, or a complete cast. Gabrielle Fritz and Jade Matthew are the first reported performers attached to the project, although neither character has been identified.

That distinction matters: the remake itself is confirmed, while the timing and casting details currently come from industry reporting rather than a Konami announcement.

Is the Silent Hill 1 remake officially confirmed?

Yes. On June 12, 2025, Konami said it was working with Bloober Team on a remake of Silent Hill, the first game in the series, originally released for PlayStation in 1999. Konami also confirmed that it will remain both the publisher and rights holder.

The announcement, reported by VGC, did not include a trailer, launch window, platform list, cast list, price, or details about physical and digital editions. Bloober Team CEO Piotr Babieno said the studio could not reveal many details yet but was confident fans would be excited by the collaboration.

When is the Silent Hill 1 remake coming out?

The remake is reportedly targeting 2027, but that is not an announced release date. A same-day MP1st report described 2027 as the project’s effective target; Areajugones subsequently stressed that Konami had not confirmed either the year or the reported cast.

Until Konami or Bloober Team publishes a date, the most accurate wording is “targeting 2027,” not “releasing in 2027.” No month, quarter, preorder date, or launch-day schedule has been disclosed.

What the current date information means

  • Confirmed: Development is underway.
  • Reported: The internal target is 2027, according to MP1st.
  • Unknown: The exact day, month, quarter, and regional launch timing.

Who is in the Silent Hill remake cast?

MP1st names Gabrielle Fritz and Jade Matthew as performers attached to the remake. The report does not identify their roles, and Areajugones likewise says Konami has not confirmed the casting.

Gabrielle Fritz

MP1st associates Fritz with performance-capture and game credits including Battlefield 2042, Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus, and Luna Abyss. Her role in Silent Hill remains unconfirmed.

Jade Matthew

Matthew is the second performer named in the report, which cites her work on games including Dragon Nest. No character assignment has been disclosed.

Who plays Harry Mason?

No reviewed report identifies the actor playing Harry Mason, the original game’s protagonist. The two reported performers have not been tied officially to Harry, Cybil Bennett, Lisa Garland, Dahlia Gillespie, or any other named character.

MP1st speculated that the actresses could portray female characters from the 1999 game, but that is speculation rather than confirmed casting.

What are Project Noise and Project G?

“Project Noise” is the reported casting codename, while “Project G” is the reported internal moniker for the remake. Neither is an announced consumer title, subtitle, or final branding.

Konami’s public wording remains simply a remake of Silent Hill. The codenames therefore identify reported production terminology, not names that should appear on a box, store page, or release listing.

What details about the remake are still unknown?

Konami’s confirmation establishes the partnership and source game, but leaves several practical questions open.

Item Current evidence status What has been disclosed
Development Officially confirmed Konami and Bloober Team are making a remake of the 1999 PlayStation game.
Release timing Reported, unconfirmed MP1st reports an effective 2027 target; Konami has not set a date.
Platforms Unknown No platform list has been announced.
Cast Partly reported, unconfirmed Gabrielle Fritz and Jade Matthew are named; roles are unknown.
Harry Mason actor Unknown No actor has been identified in the available coverage.
Price and editions Unknown No price, preorder, physical edition, or digital edition has been announced.
Gameplay and story changes Unknown The announcement supplied no design, combat, exploration, or narrative details.

How does this remake fit Konami’s wider Silent Hill plans?

Konami’s Fiscal 2026 interim report says the company is working on a remake of the first game and on SILENT HILL: Townfall, with plans to develop the series further. The report describes a broader commitment to the franchise, but it does not attach a schedule to this remake.

In an October 2026 PC Gamer report on a Famitsu interview, producer Motoi Okamoto said, “Successfully launching this ‘first wave’ comes with great relief, but we’re not stopping here; we must think of the second and third waves.” He also said the company was looking at “a number of projects” without sharing specific details.

That expansion helps explain why a 2027 slot may be plausible within Konami’s broader cadence, but it does not turn the reported target into a guarantee. Konami also said SILENT HILL f sold more than one million copies worldwide within two days of release, demonstrating strong commercial momentum for the series without providing a date for the remake.

What should fans watch for next?

The next decisive update would be an official platform and release announcement from Konami or Bloober Team. A formal cast reveal naming roles would also resolve whether Fritz or Matthew play characters from the original game and would establish whether Harry Mason’s performer is among the announced talent.

  1. Check for an official trailer or news post that names platforms.
  2. Look for a dated release window rather than relying on the reported 2027 target.
  3. Treat retailer listings as provisional until Konami confirms the product and edition.
  4. Use official cast credits to distinguish named roles from production rumors.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where should I look for a firm release date?

A date becomes reliable when Konami or Bloober Team publishes it through an official announcement or an authenticated store listing. Until then, retailer pages or insider reports can change without notice.

Could the remake launch on different platforms in different regions?

That cannot be determined yet because Konami has released no platform list at all. Regional availability, console exclusivity, and a possible PC version remain open questions.

Is Project G the name that will appear on the finished game?

There is no evidence of that. Project G is reported as an internal moniker, while Konami has publicly described the project as a remake of Silent Hill.

What would confirm Harry Mason’s actor?

An official cast announcement, game-credit listing, or trailer attribution that pairs an actor with Harry Mason would provide confirmation. No such pairing has been published in the available reports.
