Silent Hill F was released worldwide on September 25, and Konami says that according to its research the game passed 1 million copies sold by the next day, September 26.
By comparison, the Silent Hill 2 remake was released on October 8, 2024 and Konami announced that it had passed 1 million copies as of October 11, 2024.
In a Japanese press release, Konami noted that Silent Hill F is not only selling faster than Silent Hill 2, but doing so in all regions.
“The remake of Silent Hill 2, released last year, surpassed one million units shipped worldwide within a week of its release, but Silent Hill F is growing in shipments at an even faster pace in each region, including Japan,” it said (via machine translation). “As the latest instalment in the series, it has been met with a great response both at home and abroad.”
The game’s developer, Taiwanese studio NeoBards, posted its own message on X thanking players for the milestone.
“Silent Hill F has sold over 1 million copies worldwide in just 3 days,” it wrote. “Thank you to all players who joined this adventure of psychological horror. We hope you’ve found the beauty in terror in this world set in Japan’s Showa era.”
