Silent Hill 4 Confirmed? - Courtesy of C&VG.com

With the third instalment of Konami's stunning horror series still months away, we can reveal that preliminary work is underway on number four.

People of a nervous disposition should look away now, as we can exclusively reveal that auditions have already taken place for the vocal parts of Silent Hill 4, a new addition to the terrifying survival-horror series.

In an interview with our very own PC Zone magazine, singer and voice actor Donna Burke - who plays the role of Angela Orosco in Silent Hill 2: Director's Cut, and 30-year old cult leader Claudia, in the forthcoming Silent Hill 3 - confirmed a fourth part in the acclaimed series: "I've just auditioned and will resume my work with Konami in Silent Hill 4.

With a shroud of secrecy still resting over much of Silent Hill 3, such a revelation is doubtless something Konami would have preferred to have kept under wraps for some time. Oops. Careless talk, and all that, eh?

When we contacted Konami earlier today, a spokesperson issued an unsurprising, "No comment!" There's no word on potential formats yet, of course, but since SH2: Director's Cut appeared on Xbox, in addition to a Sony version, place your bets now. But don't expect to hear anything more on Silent Hill 4 anytime soon. Silent Hill 3, however, is scheduled to release on PS2 this autumn.
