Silent Hill: Townfall sells 404,000 copies, with 42.8% of PS5 revenue on disc
Alinea Analytics puts Townfall at $20.2 million in revenue in its first month on sale, with 70.9% of all copies sold on PS5 rather than on Steam or Epic.
Silent Hill: Townfall has sold about 404,000 copies since launching in late September 2026, according to estimates from Alinea Analytics. The firm says the game has generated $20.2 million, with 70.9% of copies sold on PS5. On PlayStation, 42.8% of its revenue came from physical discs, which Alinea calls a high share typical of Japan-centric launches.
Why the disc share stands out
Digital dominates console sales, so a game earning more than two-fifths of its PlayStation revenue at retail is unusual. Alinea links that pattern to Japan-centric launches, where physical retail is still a bigger part of the market. Alinea did not break the figure down by country in its free report.
The PC side is smaller. Townfall launched on Steam and the Epic Games Store alongside PS5, but fewer than three in ten copies have come from PC. On Steam it sits at Mixed, with 68% of nearly 4,000 reviews positive.
The game
Townfall is the first full-length Silent Hill played entirely in first person. It was developed by Scottish studio Screen Burn Interactive and co-published by Annapurna Interactive and Konami. Players control Simon Ordell, an outsider who washes up on St. Amelia, a fog-bound island off the coast of Scotland. Konami says the series has sold more than 17.8 million copies worldwide as of June 2026, a total that includes the Silent Hill 2 remake and Silent Hill f.
Horror's big year
Alinea's report frames Townfall within a strong year for the genre. It estimates horror games have earned $1.3 billion on Steam in 2026 so far, up 17% on all of 2025 with two months left, or about 7% of Steam's revenue this year. Resident Evil titles make up roughly a third of that horror total, while Silent Hill games account for around 2%. Clive Barker's Hellraiser: Revival, which launched on October 8, has sold an estimated 344,000 copies.
What happens next
Townfall is available now on PS5 and PC. Alinea's numbers cover only the first month, so the holiday sales period will show whether the PS5 lead and the strong disc share hold up.
