Konami has finally revealed the PC system requirements for Silent Hill f, which means that the game will not need high-end hardware to play at 720p and 30 FPS. But those who want to play it at higher resolutions and better performance will need a better configuration.
Silent Hill f – A New Horror Experience in Japan
Unlike previous games in the fictional Silent Hill, Maine, Silent Hill f is set in Ebishugaoka, Japan, a town inspired by real-life city Gero in the Gifu Prefecture. The 1960s-dated game follows high school student Hinako Shimizu as she discovers the horror of this mysterious town. Developers have also mentioned that Silent Hill f will include Japanese traditions and customs of the era, though a disclaimer indicates that these representations are not representative of the attitudes of the time.

Mature Themes and ESRB Rating
The ESRB rating of the game cites graphic presentation of torture, gender discrimination, and child abuse in Silent Hill f. Silent Hill f, developed on Unreal Engine 5, is touted to have nauseating realism in horror presentation.
