Now that Tokyo Game Show is just around the corner, Konami has revealed all the information about the showcase on its website. Schedules for every event the company will offer can be found here (though it is in Japanese, Google can help you out here), and among these announcements, people have stumbled upon a very intriguing one.
Most of the games that will partake in this event were already revealed, but a mystery remains. On September 16, Konami will announce a new game that could be related to a beloved series. Among the upcoming events, the publisher’s website displays a 45-minute show titled “Konami new release announced.”

“Voice actor Yuji Kaji will be invited as a guest to represent the fans of a series which is loved all over the world, on the announcement stage for a new Konami title,” it reads.
As we know, Kaji has participated in several famous titles, including a couple of Final Fantasy installments. Even though he’s part of this announcement, it’s only a representative figure for the fans. It’s unclear if he will have anything to do with the mystery game itself.
According to VGC, the cryptic announcement is likely related to a smaller project rather than Konami’s more significant planned revivals for Castlevania, Silent Hill, and Metal Gear Solid. Sources say that the title could be a PlayStation and PC exclusive.
Silent Hill 2 remake is currently in active development at The Medium developer Bloober Team. Also, the Silent Hill “short stories” series is allegedly in development at a studio under Annapurna Interactive’s name.
Which game could be announced by Konami? What are your thoughts on this? Let us know in the comment section!
