Photojournalist Matt Hackney had reported that del Toro gave an update on the project’s status during the San Francisco International Film Festival on Saturday. Konami will stop distributing “P.T.”, the playable teaser of Silent Hills, on Wednesday.
The title would have featured game director Hideo Kojima (Metal Gear), acclaimed film director Guillermo del Toro (Pan’s Labyrinth, Hellboy, Mimic, Blade II, Pacific Rim), and actor Norman Reedus (The Walking Dead, Mimic, Blade II, Iron Man: Rise of Technovore). The credits listed Kojima Production (with its Fox Engine software) and Konami.
During Konami‘s restructuring in March, there were unconfirmed rumors that Kojima would be leaving the company after completing Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. Konami has not yet addressed the rumors. Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain is slated to ship for multiple consoles worldwide on September 1.
