Konami released a new trailer for Silent Hill: Townfall, boasting high critic scores. Player reviews turned out to be noticeably more modest.
On OpenCritic, the game received an average of 8 out of 10, with some publications, including Digital Spy and The AU, giving it a perfect score.
Players received the new survival horror more coolly. The average user score on Metacritic is 7.1 out of 10, and on Steam, only 69% of reviews recommend the game, which corresponds to a mixed rating.
The main complaints are related to poor optimization. Also, some users did not like the excessive emphasis on stealth gameplay and a weak plot.
