Although Silent Hills will never see the light of day, fans of the dormant series can now revisit a few of its earlier titles on Xbox One. The Silent Hill HD Collection, which includes the second and third games, and Silent Hill: Homecoming are both now backwards compatible.
The Silent Hill HD Collection is a notoriously janky up-res (it was developed from incomplete code), and we didn't particularly enjoy Homecoming either. That being said, the series is undoubtedly a part of gaming history; it's better it exists in some format than not at all.
