Konami Digital Entertainment GmbH has today confirmed that Silent Hill: Shattered Memories will be available in Australian stores on April 22nd on Wii , PS2 and PSP.

Silent Hill: Shattered Memories is a re-imagining of the original Silent Hill with all new twists. Silent Hill: Shattered Memories begins much like the beloved original. The game opens to the scene following a car accident where the central character, Harry Mason, wakes to find his daughter Cheryl missing. Harry sets out into the snowy streets of the haunted town of Silent Hill to find her, and that’s where his living nightmare begins as he not only discovers the truth about his daughter, but also about himself.

The Wii , PlayStation2 and PSP versions include an all-new user interface featuring a mobile phone which acts as a story telling device, map and camera as well as an all-new psych profiling system that plays upon the player’s innermost fears. The game constantly watches the player’s every move and adapts to their actions, offering a customised intense horror experience each time.

Silent Hill: Shattered Memories is rated "M" and will be available in retail stores from April 22nd. The recommended retail price will be $69.95 for PlayStation2 and PSP and $79.95 for Wii

Wow that’s a hefty price to pay for a re-make of the original. Of course, that’s Aussie dollars.
