Silent Hill f’s Konatsu Kato plays as Hinako in live stream
Since its release, Kato’s performance has been widely discussed and celebrated for feeling incredibly realistic and emotionally powerful – a point we highlighted in our positive review. Kato herself shared with TopMob that playing the character Hinako sometimes felt overwhelming, to the point where she felt like she was losing touch with reality, blurring the boundaries between herself and the role.
Konami has emphasized Kato’s significant role in Silent Hill f, explaining that she not only voiced the character Hinako, but also served as the model for her appearance and movements, essentially bringing the character to life both visually and emotionally.
Viewers who speak English have been sharing positive comments in the live chat, complimenting her amazing gameplay.
Silent Hill f, the first major Silent Hill game set in Japan, came out on September 25, 2025. Created by NeoBards Entertainment and with a story by Ryukishi07—the author of Higurashi—the game tells the story of a young girl in 1960s Japan who must face a frightening supernatural event that’s consuming her town. It combines psychological horror with elements of traditional Japanese folklore.
