Report: Konami to create remakes and new installments of classic IPs like Metal Gear and Silent Hill

It looks like Konami might finally be ready to breathe new life into some of its most famous franchises. The Japanese company reportedly plans to revive IPs like Metal Gear and Castlevania.

A few anonymous sources told Video Games Chronicle that Konami is “now focused on bringing back its biggest brands to the premium games space.”

The report follows the company’s restructure in January. Konami consolidated three Production Divisions and stated that it will continue to create its own games.

One of these titles will be a new Castlevania game, which is going to reimagine the series. It is reportedly developed in Japan.

A new Silent Hill, which was rumored to be outsourced to external teams, is probably in development, too. However, it is unclear what team is involved in the production.

VGC editor Andy Robinson later said that Singaporean studio Virtuos is now working on a new Metal Gear Solid project, which could be based on MGS 3: Snake Eater. The team is best known for porting The Outer World and Dark Souls to Nintendo Switch.

According to VGC, Konami might show these new projects next year.
