Konami announces Silent Hill Downpour has been delayed from an October 2011 release date to now around a mid-2012 release date with no official reason given for the delay. Although, the company did show off a new trailer for the game as part of the delay announcement.
The company also denied claims from European retailers the game would have a February 2012 release and admitted the delay will be longer than initially expected.
A potential reason for the delay could be due to the new changes Konami wants for the game and the use of a new developer for the project called Vatra studio from the Czech Republic.
The game is still set for release on the Xbox 360 and PS3 with the PS3 also getting 3D support.
