While it seemed like all hope is lost when it comes to "Silent Hills" PS4 release date, fans continue to make a noise asking for the game to push through.
Upon hearing news that Konami might instead launch the game in mobile, fans immediately set out a petition in Weebly saying,
"The protest is encouraging fans to use their "Playstation experience to protest Konami," as an opening statement. Futhermore the write up wanted to show Konami its determination to put a stop to "mobile as the future of gaming" vision of Konami.
"It's time to show Kojima, Del Toro, and Norman Reedus that we're serious when we say they don't need Konami to make this game, even if they have to drop the "silent" namesake. Our money is where our mouths are - start a kickstarter, we'll gladly fund it."
In conclusion, the statement wanted to make sure that "these hills are no longer silent" as it launched the hashtags, #UnsilencedHills #SupportConsoleDev #DigitalPreservationinGaming #PTstillHauntsUs #InMemoryofPT
And while Konami has yet to comment on the said petition, "Walking Dead" star Norman Reedus has already expressed his support with the group as encouraged fans' outcry to bring "Silent Hills" PS4 release date back on its track.
"The Hills are no longer silent," Reedus tweeted to show his support to pursue the game despite Konami's decision to dismiss it after creator Hideo Kojima exited the company.
The 46-year-old Hollywood actor then directed his fans to a Weebly site where the petition or rather protest is posted.

Meanwhile, supposed director Guillermo del Toro has also showed his support to fans' petition in bringing back "Silent Hills" despite Hideo Kojima's silence.
"Norman [Reedus, the Walking Dead actor who was attached to play the lead role] was super happy, Hideo was super happy, and so was I," del Toro previously said in an interview with IGN. "I know there's a petition going on the internet and it's gathering signatures. I would add my signature to it, and hope that someone pays attention."
The award winning director even laid out his supposed plans for "Silent Hills."
"What we wanted to do with the game - and we were very much in agreement on this - was to take the technology and make it as cutting-edge as we could in creating terror in the house," he explained. "The idea was very, very atmosphere-drenched."
Adding, "But what made Silent Hill so great was that you had the atmosphere but then you a pay-off with a very active, very intense series of moments. We wanted to do some stuff that I'm pretty sure - just in case it ever comes back, which honestly I would love for somebody to change their mind and we can do it - but in case it comes back there was some stuff that was very new, and I wouldn't want to spoil it.
Fans posted their petition at Change.org, where they are asked game creator Hideo Kojima and supposed director Guillermo del Toro pursue with "Silent Hills" PS4 release date by a "crowdfunding campaign."
"Dear Hideo and Guillermo,
hearing the cancellation of one of the most anticipated horror games is about the most heartbreaking thing horror fans had to swallow this year.
Since the first sight of the P.T Demo it was instant love, and it burned into the minds of everyone that this had to release at some point.
Although the reasons are not yet announced I am begging you along with countless others: Please continue the Development on Silent Hills, if the issue is money related, we would love to see a Crowdfunding campaign like Kickstarter to ensure you are getting all the financial help there is! We´d love to see it happen at some point and want to thank you for all the great games you have released so far!
Greetings
