- Silent Hill f and Fatal Frame 2: Crimson Butterfly Remake is set to receive official crossover content
- Both will apparently receive free costumes inspired by each other
- ONE Fatal Frame 2 The demo is also on the way, coming a week before the game’s release
Here’s prime news for fans of the best horror games as Konami and Koei Tecmo join forces for a joint collaboration between Silent Hill f and the future Fatal Frame 2: Crimson Butterfly Remake.
Koei Tecmo confirmed this via press release Fatal Frame 2: Crimson Butterfly Remake will receive Silent Hill f-inspired costumes “at a later date as free downloadable content.” The horror game is currently scheduled for release on March 12, 2026.
Something lies in the fog and darkness. We are thrilled to announce a special cosmetic collaboration between SILENT HILL f and the iconic Japanese horror adventure, Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly REMAKE.

In the same press release, Koei Tecmo confirmed it Fatal Frame 2: Crimson Butterfly Remake will get a free demo on March 5, 2026, a week before the game’s full launch. The demo will be available on all platforms the game is released on, including PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC.
The collaboration is good news for various reasons. First, it’s great to see two icons of the Japanese horror game space acknowledge each other in an official capacity. It also goes without saying, really, that it’s a cool way to introduce fans of each series to the other.
This certainly isn’t the first time Koei Tecmo has reached out to other developers for cross-game collaborations. Last year, Atelier Yumia: The Alchemist of Memories and the Imagined Land featured free content inspired by Tekken 8, and vice versa. Atelier developer Gust really put their heart into this one with a fantastic costume for Yumia based on Tekken newcomer Reina Mishima.
As for Fatal Frame 2’s demo, I think it’s a bit of a shame that it comes only a week before the actual game launches. But at least it will still give those on the fence a chance to try out the game beforehand without spending a dime.
Silent Hill f is one of my personal favorite horror games; one with a harrowing history that I still think about regularly. And while some Fatal Frame-inspired costumes won’t make me jump back the way a potential story expansion would, but it’s still nice to see the game still receiving content and updates in 2026 nonetheless.
