7 external studios are working on the PS5 exclusivity Abandoned

It was first time 2 months ago announced new PS5 exclusivity called Abandoned. Developers from Blue Box Game Studios are working on the game, which no one has ever heard of, even though they claim to have collaborated on several titles in the past.

The whole situation was already a bit strange at the time. In addition, we subsequently found out that the initials of the studio head are HK and on their own YT channel has a studio in the hills banner (in English “hills”). The players were clear – Abandoned is a new game by Hide Kojima and is a sequel to the Silent Hill series. However, the speculation was subsequently cut off by the head of the studio himself, who denied any connection with this Japanese developer, and thus the case more or less faded. But yesterday it started again and this time the developers are to blame.

“Guess the name: Abandoned = (First letter S, last letter L). Revelation approaching… “

Guess the name:

Abandoned = (First letter S, Last letter L). Reveal closing in… #PS5 #Exclusive

The reactions did not take long. This Tweet clearly indicates that it is the name Silent Hill. However, a few hours later, the developers countered with a statement that again denies any connection with Hide Kojima, Konami or this famous horror series. Apparently they didn’t even know that players could interpret it that way, but who believes this?

We wanted to set things straight. We have no relations with Konami. Silent Hill is owned by Konami. We do not have any relations with Hideo Kojima. It was never our intention to tease the name as Silent Hill. We sincerely apologize for this.

Certainly not users on Twitter, Reddit and other forums, because these “coincidences” are increasing and it is still not really clear what developers are. Their official site they don’t work and have only a few posts on their social networks related only to Abandoned. This is a bit strange if it really was a studio that has existed for several years, as they claim.

We are confident with the game as it is right now. The teaser back in april was just an announcement of the development. The game itself has never been shown. So We hope that we will still convince everyone with the first time reveal.

The story does not end here either. Even if Abandoned wasn’t Silent Hill in the end, it’s already clear that it’s going to be a bigger game than it first seemed. The developers said that they are cooperating with a total of 7 studies and we can look forward to professional dubbing. In addition, according to them, we have never seen the game and the first trailer served only as a “announcement of development”. Here, however, they are a bit contradictory, because we have already seen footage from the game in the mentioned trailer. Or not? In the end, is Abandoned a completely different game than the one presented by the studio? Everything is possible. But it seems that the developers absolutely can’t handle marketing or are tightening up on us all the time.

We have worked on several games in the past for external studios. There are more than 7 outsourcing studios helping us with “Abandoned”. We are confident you’ll enjoy the game reveal!

One thing is for sure, already June 22 launches an application on the PlayStation 5, which will gradually reveal the game. We should have a demo and release date in the summer.

On June 22 Abandoned will have it’s own PS5 app showcasing upcoming title related trailers and gameplay reveal demo’s. All images are actual in-game sequences that will provide you a first impression of the game followed by a gameplay demo this summer along with a release date.
