After Silent Hills, Guillermo del Toro is done with video games

A statement that comes after his appearance at the 2021 Game Awards, where he commented on the art direction of Silent Hills and said he hoped fans could soon see the new game del Toro had been working on with Kojima for some time. before it was canceled.
“It’s just one of those things in my life that doesn’t make sense”del Toro said at the cancellation of Silent Hills. “I would just like to compare myself with Konami because I don’t understand. It was so perfect, what we were about to do was so compelling. “

Video games aside, Del Toro’s latest film, Nightmare Alley, recently released in the United States, has won the hearts of crime and thriller fans. So after all, maybe it’s best that you keep focusing on the movies.
