News, SILENT HILL: Townfall

If September 19 is your day at Makuhari, the ninety minutes Konami set aside for SILENT HILL: Townfall begin at 14:30

Konami's Tokyo Game Show 2026 microsite lists seven of its own titles, four in Family Game Park and more than twenty partner titles, plus ten streaming programs across the five days. Both the new Silent Hill and the new Castlevania carry Streaming labels; only two rows read Demo alone.

What Konami is bringing to Tokyo Game Show 2026 is now posted on the company’s official microsite. The list runs past thirty rows, but only ten items carry a time of day: the streaming programs. Of those ten, exactly one belongs to SILENT HILL: Townfall, on Saturday, September 19, from 14:30 to 16:00 [2]. Silent Hill is the horror series Konami started in 1999, and Townfall is the new entry in it. As of September 3, 2026, the show opens in under two weeks.

Seven titles under Konami’s own name, four of them anniversary displays

Tokyo Game Show is the largest games exhibition in Japan. The 2026 edition runs from Thursday, September 17 to Monday, September 21 at Makuhari Messe in Chiba. The first two days are Business Days for registered industry attendees; the last three are the public days you can buy a ticket for [3].

Konami’s lineup page splits into three sections: KONAMI Titles, Family Game Park and Partner Titles [1]. The first holds seven entries.

Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse is listed for PS5, Xbox on PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch and Steam, labelled Streaming Demo. SILENT HILL: Townfall is listed for PS5, Steam and PC, labelled Streaming Exhibition. Suikoden STAR LEAP, a mobile entry in Konami’s long-running RPG series, is on iOS and Android with the same Streaming Exhibition label [1].

The remaining four carry no platform at all, only the word Exhibition: KONAMI Anniversary to the Future, Castlevania 40th, Pawapuro Success 30th Anniversary, and Ganbare Goemon Series 40th Anniversary [1]. The Japanese page prints that label as 展示, and the two above it as 配信 試遊 and 配信 展示 [2]. What those four displays actually contain is not described anywhere on the lineup page.

Two rows say Demo without a qualifier, and both sit in a different building

Family Game Park holds exactly four entries. PAWAFURU PUROYAKYU 2026-2027 on PS4 and Nintendo Switch is a Demo. eFootball Kick-Off! on Nintendo Switch 2 is a Streaming Demo. SUPER BOMBERMAN COLLECTION on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo Switch and Steam is a Streaming Demo. Ganbare Goemon Dai Shugou! on PS5, Nintendo Switch and Steam is a Demo [1].

That baseball game and that Goemon game are the only two rows in Konami’s eleven that read Demo with nothing in front of it. Everything else has Streaming attached [1][2].

These four also are not in the main halls. Konami’s microsite places Family Game Park at TKP Tokyo Bay Makuhari Hall [2], a separate building from the Makuhari Messe exhibition halls. Walk the Konami booth on the show floor and leave, and you will have walked past all four. Booth numbers could not be confirmed: the microsite’s map page did not load on September 3, 2026.

The longest section is the one Konami did not make

Partner Titles, the third section, runs past twenty entries. Counting the page repeatedly returned different totals in the twenties, so the exact figure is not settled here. The names are legible, though. Nihon Falcom’s Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter, Moomintroll: Winter’s Warmth, THE HURRICANE OF THE VARSTRAY, Sugar Lies, Afterlove EP, 13Z: The Zodiac Trials, Karous -The Blur of Re:venant- New Order, HORGIHUGH, XELAN FORCE AE, Cotton Reboot! and SULFUR are all in there [1].

Some of them also hold stage time. Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter gets a Falcom jdk BAND release concert twice, on September 19 and again on September 20, and Sugar Lies, Karous and HORGIHUGH each take a program of their own [2]. Treat the Konami booth as a first-party showcase and half the timetable goes unused.

The ten programs, day by day

All times are Japan Standard Time [2].

Thursday, September 17 opens with Karous -The Blur of Re:venant- New Order at 11:45 to 12:30, followed by the HORGIHUGH Special Stage at 15:00 to 15:30. Friday, September 18 has a single entry, the Sugar Lies TGS 2026 special broadcast at 12:00 to 13:00. Both of those fall on Business Days, so the general public cannot watch them on site.

Saturday, September 19 has two. The Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter release concert by Falcom jdk BAND runs 10:30 to 11:30, and the SILENT HILL: Townfall Special Stage runs 14:30 to 16:00.

Sunday, September 20 is the densest day. Suikoden Live at TGS2026 runs 12:00 to 13:30, Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse at TGS 2026 Live Stream runs 14:00 to 15:30, and the Falcom jdk BAND concert returns 16:00 to 16:45.

Monday, September 21, the closing day, has the SUPER BOMBERMAN COLLECTION all-boss challenge stage at 10:00 to 11:30 and eFootball Kick-Off! at 14:00 to 15:30.

Seven of the ten fall on the three days a ticket gets you in. Seeing both Silent Hill and Castlevania means booking the 19th and the 20th. For a single day, the 20th carries the most, with three programs.

The announcement itself carries no date

Konami’s lineup page prints neither a publication date nor an announcement date [1]. Neither does the Japanese version [2]. An image file on the Japanese page still carries a 20260826 version stamp, which puts the posting on or after August 26, but the exact day Konami published this list could not be pinned down from a primary source. That is why this article says late August 2026 and nothing narrower.

What the timetable does not answer yet

A few things stay open. The lineup page gives no release window for SILENT HILL: Townfall. It also does not say which channels carry the ten programs, so anyone watching from outside Japan is waiting on a separate broadcast link. The Goods and Map pages exist in the menu with nothing behind them.

The timetable is the only settled part. Ninety minutes of the new Silent Hill start at 14:30 on September 19, and Konami has not set aside a comparable slot on any other day.
