Silent Hill f The First In Konami's Horror Series to Get an 18+ Rating In Japan

Author : Chloe Update:Mar 16,2025

Silent Hill f makes history as the first game in the franchise to receive an 18+ rating (CERO:Z) in Japan. This was revealed during the Japanese-language reveal trailer, alongside its Mature rating in the U.S. and PEGI 18 rating in Europe. While the rating is subject to change as development continues, it marks a significant departure from previous entries. Silent Hill, Silent Hill 2, Silent Hill 3, and Silent Hill: The Room all received CERO:C ratings (15+ in Japan), a trend generally followed by other games in the series, even the recently released Silent Hill 2 Remake, which maintained a CERO:C rating despite a Mature rating in the West.

PlayKonami's recent Silent Hill Transmission focused entirely on Silent Hill f, the first mainline entry in 13 years. Announced in 2022, the game transports players to 1960s Japan, where they follow Shimizu Hinako, a teenager grappling with societal pressures. The narrative is penned by Ryukishi07, the creator of the acclaimed When They Cry visual novel series.

While gameplay was limited, the trailer offered glimpses into the game's setting, monster designs, and a potentially unique "Otherworld" featuring blood-red flowers instead of the series' usual rusty aesthetic.

Currently, there's no release date for Silent Hill f, and no updates were provided regarding No Code's Silent Hill Townfall.
