The next installment of Silent Hill, currently in development at Vatra Games, has been titled Silent Hill: Downpour, Game Informer reports. Water is expected to play a heavy role in the game, which Game Informer notes will visit "some new places in Silent Hill." More details will be revealed in the February issue of the magazine.

The excellent Silent Hill: Shattered Memories re-imagined the series' traditional rusty metal "Otherworld" as one of snow and ice; so perhaps Downpour's Otherworld will be a bit warmer and flooded with Speedo monsters. We just pray the next lost soul to stumble into Silent Hill's would-be paradise isn't hydrophobic.
