The source said the reason the Silent Hills playable teaser was removed from the PlayStation Store was “as a show of good faith to Microsoft.”
There is one report from the anonymous source that makes me skeptical about the information in general. The source says that Konami is trying to get out of the console game as soon as possible, and trying to sell all of their franchises that could not easily confer to mobile devices. Konami is focusing on mobile, we know, but this bit of information contradicts an earlier statement from Konami that says they will be completely supporting console software in the future.
Is there any credit to these rumors? Is Silent Hills coming as an exclusive to the Xbox One. Only time will tell, Let us know what your thoughts are below.
