Konami’s “Press Start” Event: Prepare for Disappointment This Week!

Okay, gamers, gather ’round the digital campfire 🔥 because Konami, yes, THAT Konami, is blessing us with a whole 37 minutes of… something. After completely ghosting us at Summer Game Fest 2025, the Xbox Games Showcase, and even the PlayStation State of Play 2025 (did they even get an invite? 🤔), they’re finally crawling out of whatever pachinko parlor they’ve been hiding in. Prepare for the Konami Press Start Event, where we’ll probably see more of Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater and Silent Hill f. Get ready for disappointment, folks! 🤡

So, after a summer of absolutely NOTHING from Konami (seriously, were they even trying? 😴), they’ve decided to grace us with their presence. This earth-shattering event, cleverly titled “Press Start,” will supposedly showcase some gameplay from Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, which, let’s be honest, is just a fancy way of saying they’re remaking a game we already loved. Because originality is dead, right? 💀

And then there’s Silent Hill f. Oh boy. This game has been shrouded in more mystery than a pyramid head’s origin story. Since its initial reveal back in March 2025, featuring a new Japanese location (because Japan = scary, apparently 👻), the brilliant mind of Ryukishi07, and the return of Akira Yamaoka (thank god for small mercies 🙏), Konami has been quieter than a mime in a library. Will this be the Silent Hill game we’ve been waiting for? Or another nail in the coffin of a once-great franchise? Place your bets, folks! 🎲

But wait, there’s MORE! The YouTube video description teases a potential “surprise announcement.” What could it be? Silent Hill Pachinko Edition? 🎰 A Castlevania NFT collection? 💰 A new dating sim featuring Pyramid Head? The possibilities are endless, and all equally terrifying. 😨

Want to watch this train wreck live? Of course, you do! The official Konami YouTube account has already uploaded the video placeholder, which is basically a digital invitation to lower your expectations. Tune in on Thursday, June 12, at 9:00 a.m. ET, and prepare to be underwhelmed. 😒

Now, here’s where the speculation gets wild. After the shocking announcement of Final Fantasy XVI heading to Xbox (who saw that coming? 🤯), some are wondering if Konami will pull a similar stunt and release the Silent Hill 2 Remake on Xbox as well. Imagine the chaos! 🤣

But let’s be real, folks. This is Konami we’re talking about. They’re more likely to announce a new line of Metal Gear Solid-themed energy drinks than anything truly groundbreaking. So, while it’s fun to dream, let’s not get our hopes up too high. Remember, hope is the first step on the road to disappointment. 💔

In just two days, we’ll have our answers. Will Konami finally redeem themselves? Will Metal Gear Solid Delta be more than just a prettier version of the original? Will Silent Hill f be the game that restores our faith in the franchise? Or will this event be another reminder of Konami’s descent into mediocrity? Only time will tell. Until then, keep your expectations low, your memes ready, and your sense of humor sharp. You’re gonna need it. 😂
