Konami – Geekfeed https://www.geekfeed.com Entertainment News, Celebrities and Fandoms Sat, 03 Feb 2024 17:05:20 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://www.geekfeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/cropped-Geekfeed-Favicon-White-32x32.png Konami – Geekfeed https://www.geekfeed.com 32 32 State of Play: Watch Combat Reveal for Silent Hill 2 https://www.geekfeed.com/watch-combat-reveal-for-silent-hill-2/ Sat, 03 Feb 2024 17:05:20 +0000 https://www.geekfeed.com/?p=80889 The Silent Hill franchise from Konami may be have been dormant since they cancelled Hideo Kojima’s game, but the studio is now ready to move forward with some new entries as well as a remake of one of the most celebrated entries in the franchise.

Silent Hill 2 is currently in development, and thanks to State of Play, we have a new look at the game. Check this out:

Here’s the official description for the game:

Take a look at new gameplay footage in this trailer, including what to expect from the improved and modernized combat.

Having received a letter from his deceased wife,

James heads to where they shared so many memories, in the hope of seeing her one more time: Silent Hill. There, by the lake, he finds a woman eerily similar to her…

My name… is Maria,” the woman smiles. Her face, her voice… She’s just like her.

Experience a master-class in psychological survival horror―lauded as the best in the series―on the latest hardware with chilling visuals and visceral sounds.

With the original Silent Hill 2 coming out for the PlayStation 2 era of consoles, fans are expecting this remake to add a whole new modern spin on a classic story.

Of course, when it comes to these remakes, there is always two sides that the studio could go; whether they create a whole new game with some original elements, or just polish up the look and gameplay of the original.

Either way, Konami should expect some complaints, but as long as the remake can stand on its own, I think a lot of fans will be pleased.

No specific release date has been announced for Silent Hill 2, but the game is now available for wishlist and it’s possible it could come out later this year or sometime early 2025.

Jurassic Park: Survival Game Officially Revealed at TGA 2023 https://www.geekfeed.com/jurassic-park-survival-game-officially-revealed/ Mon, 11 Dec 2023 17:14:53 +0000 https://www.geekfeed.com/?p=80044 The Jurassic World franchise may have come to an end with Jurassic World: Dominion, and it will probably be a while before we get to see another Jurassic on the big screen. What’s cool is, Saber Interactive is going to be bringing the world of Jurassic Park into the gaming space with their newly announced Jurassic Park: Survival.

Check this out:

There was actually another Jurassic Park: Survival that was being developed back in the early 2000s and it was set to be published by Konami, but the game had some development hiccups and was ultimately cancelled. It was supposed to be based on Jurassic Park III which also came out around the same time, but with this new title, the setting seems to be the original Jurassic Park, but we should be expecting a completely new story.

The game is being described as a single-player action-adventure, so we should expect all kinds of running and sneaking around. Based on the brief gameplay we see at the end, it does look like it’s going to be a first-person game; so maybe we should expect some shooter elements—but I would be impressed if they managed to keep it all animal friendly.

With no release date in sight, we may have to wait a bit longer before the next update on this game.

Jurassic Park: Survival is yet to receive a release date, but it is expected to launch for PC, Xbox Series X|S, an PS5.

Konami Announces Silent Hill 2 Remake https://www.geekfeed.com/konami-announces-silent-hill-2-remake/ Thu, 20 Oct 2022 14:04:22 +0000 https://www.geekfeed.com/?p=71671 Fans haven’t forgotten that Hideo Kojima was supposed to deliver his own take on the Silent Hill franchise, but Konami is still set in moving forward with one of their biggest horror game titles.

As promised, they’ve dropped a new reveal for a bunch of Silent Hill games, and the biggest one is the remake of the classic Silent Hill 2. Watch the teaser here:

Here’s the official description:

Having received a letter from his deceased wife,
James heads to where they shared so many memories,
in the hope of seeing her one more time: Silent Hill.
There, by the lake, he finds a woman eerily similar to her…

“My name…is Maria,” the woman smiles. Her face, her voice… She’s just like her.

Experience a master-class in psychological survival horror―lauded as the best in the series―on the latest hardware with chilling visuals and visceral sounds.

The original Silent Hill 2 had come out way back in 2011 for the PlayStation 2 era, so it’s kind of curious what the game will look like when it jumps forward past two generations of consoles. If anything, we should expect it to be like the Resident Evil remakes which are revamped from top to bottom—but they did keep the certain style and feel of the original games.

Admittedly, Konami has been pretty quiet about Silent Hill since they dropped Kojima’s project, and though it’s kind of a cop out that they should develop a remake, I think this could be a great entry point for new fans of the franchise.

No release date has been set for Silent Hill 2, but the game is set to be a PlayStation console exclusive. Fingers crossed we get a release sometime around 2023.

Is Hideo Kojima Teasing the Death Stranding Sequel? https://www.geekfeed.com/is-hideo-kojima-teasing-the-death-stranding-sequel/ Tue, 30 Nov 2021 07:42:50 +0000 https://www.geekfeed.com/?p=62638 A few months back, Norman Reedus had teased that he could be working on a sequel to Death Stranding. We haven’t gotten any updates in months, but a recent post from game director Hideo Kojima has fans wondering if this is our first teaser for the DS sequel.

Kojima posted this on his Twitter feed:

The wording is very vague, but some are guessing that it’s actually Reedus that we see in the background, out of focus. Back in August (via IGN Brazil), Reedus had said, “I think we’re doing a second Death Stranding.”

With Death Stranding being Kojima’s first major title outside of Konami, a lot of people were hyped for the release of the game. Upon launch though, DS proved to be nothing less than divisive; with some praising Kojima’s unique take in the video game medium, and others dubbing the game as a pretentious attempt at art.

Oddly enough, Death Stranding ended up being prophetic in its premise. Who knew that a game about a delivery man trying to keep society connected as humanity was decimated by an invisible enemy would come out right before the rise of the pandemic?

We don’t know where a sequel could go at this point, but seeing as the first game already has a confusing enough storyline, we should expect the follow-up to be just as convoluted. Then again, there’s probably someone on Youtube who will be willing to go over details for you.

No sequel has been officially announced, but Death Stranding is now playable for PS4|PS5, and PC.

Death Stranding Announces Director’s Cut with New Trailer https://www.geekfeed.com/death-stranding-announces-directors-cut-with-new-trailer/ Sun, 11 Jul 2021 13:41:34 +0000 https://www.geekfeed.com/?p=60470 With Death Stranding being Hideo Kojima’s first game outside of Konami, you would think that it was already the ‘Director’s Cut’ of the game. Shortly after Ghost of Tsushima’s Director’s Cut announcement, Kojima Productions has announced a Director’s Cut of the game remastered for the PS5.

Check out the trailer for the director’s cut of the game here:

Besides the enhanced visuals for the PS5, the Director’s Cut also promises a whole new expansion of the game which includes new monsters, weapons, and delivery equipment from robotic legs that help you carry items to a catapult that lets you launch items across the map. Players will also get access to a slew of mini-games plus an extended storyline.

When the game came out, it was met with mixed reviews and a lot of people weren’t able to put heads or tails on what kind of game Kojima was trying to make—dubbing DS as a AAA walking simulator. Over time though, it looks like a lot more fans have managed to get onboard Death Stranding, and have understood Kojima’s themes on connection and society. Kind of prophetic considering COVID-19 happened less than a year later.

Hopefully this Director’s Cut will get more players trying out Death Stranding for the first time.

In the future, a mysterious event known as the DEATH STRANDING has opened a doorway between the living and the dead, leading to grotesque creatures from the afterlife roaming the fallen world marred by a desolate society.

Death Stranding Director’s Cut is now available for pre-order and will come out on Sept. 24 for the PS5.
