Instead of embarrassing themselves like they did last year with a live press conference, Konami decided to go a safer route and control every aspect of the release. But "safer" wasn't exactly the smart choice. In the video that was released to GameTrailers, Konami announced what it had planned for the rest of the year. Sure, there were some surprises, but overall it was pretty lackluster. In fact, it was bad.
Today, Konami announced its financial results for the first nine months of fiscal year 2026, between April 2025 and December 2025.
What happens when you make good games, keep it up konami, you've been doing great. Please do a AAA Castlevania too, or heck just start off remaking/remastering old games to play it safe.
Bought both Castlevania Advance Collection and the Dominus Collection. I would absolutely love to have all the GBA games as well, and of course Symphony of the Night.
What I would really love though, is a true next gen sequel to SotN.
Not any games: SINGLE PLAYER GAMES!!!
I bought Silent Hill and MGS3!
Keep them coming, i will keep supporting!
Ironic. Also I guess the whole "fk Konami" phase is over now that they're selling remakes of already great games. People are easy to please, just rattle pretty graphics them.
i mean, silent hill f is a brand new game and it sold better then silent hill 2 remake.
Woah, making good games that people want to play pays off?
Someone tell Ubisoft and Square-enix!
I don’t mean final fantasy. I meant their OTHER games. Like their Babylon’s Fall, Avengers, etc. Don’t be coy.
Well,, I think all publishers have made some good and bad games. Its a risky business.
Konami is planning to further expand the Silent Hill series beyond the remake of the first entry and Silent Hill: Townfall.
Very unlikely to happen, but I really wish they at least remastered Shattered Memories. From a story telling point, that is still my favourite title and I think it would fit really well as a VR game.
why is it very unlikely to happen?
2 and f sold really well. especially f
if they nail 1, then im all on board
When I want to play silent hill game I always expect to get the same atmosphere I was see in SH 1 & 2 with deep and great story connect with silent hill city (not another city ) so if Konami want to continue release new games it should based on the success of these games.
In my opinion I think the game need :
- improve combat ( no more action just improve the combat and physics)
- another good and deep story
- improve creatures and enemies design
- add mysterious puzzles and it will be good if these puzzles connected with game story
- and of course Akira should involved in the project.
- create mysterious characters
Konami announced its financial results for the first half of fiscal year 2026, related to the period between April 2025 and September 2025.
Looks like Mobile is still their bread and butter. But I'm glad they are at least diversifying finally...
My god what I'd give for a new Castlevania game.... Still one of the coolest IPs in gaming.... I'd love to play a AAA Castlevania game that gets the god of war treatment.... Treat the whip like a character. Simon Belmont.... Dracula. Go.
Meh as long as other companies dont follow this idea, I like having streams of conferences that way announcements arn't spoiled
A little bit harsh but I agree with the authors statements.
I wasn't to impressed with never dead, and I got really bored of the elevator comedy section, it wasn't even to funny, it just seemed like they wanted to have an hour long press conference.
But the HD collections was nice, and the new engine looks like it has potential.
The only thing I am not sure about is Transfaring. It seems like a cool idea on paper, but I don't think I really need to have all my games with me everywhere I go. That, and I don't see myself really playing handheld titles. Although I am sure it is very cool for someone who has a PSP or plans on getting NGP.
konami was really really bad at yesterdays thing.
All rehashes, more or less nothing new ( yes I know about hill)
Konami is only good for metal gear, suikoden, castlevania
Without 2 new of these, they are nothing
I cant say I fully agree with what this article has to say but the one thing I was disappointed with was the lack of hardly any thing new. While the HD remastered are neat and I look forward to ZOE in 2012 theres still nothing new. Here I was hoping for Hideo to unveil a new game and all I got was a dog and horse...with some trees.
Sure is angry in here.
