Townfall Patch v1.4.0 Released

Our new patch for SILENT HILL: Townfall has arrived, and notes can be found here: v1.4.0 Patch Notes


For those wondering if we’ve simply nerfed the game in 1.4.0, fear not!

“Reduced” is a deliberately broad term, and the changes aren’t quite as blunt as they might sound. It’s really important to us that we maintain the terror, challenge and excitement of the game’s encounters, as well as their narrative significance.

While a dry bullet-point list can make it look like we’ve simply made the game much “easier,” what we have actually done is tune the difficulty to bring the challenges more in line with the intended experience across the various difficulty settings, while giving players a little more room to explore the game’s different gameplay options.

Some of these changes are very, very subtle, and in some cases you likely won’t even notice in the heat of battle! Over the course of the entire game, however, we expect players will ‘feel’ just a little more able to fight when they need to, and a little less frustrated by that guy!

If you’re a returning player, give it a try and let us know what you think! As always, we’re all ears!
