Silent Hill 4: The Room joins the GOG Preservation Program
Silent Hill 4: The Room by Konami has joined the GOG Preservation Program, available DRM-free.

Inclusion in the library of classic titles is intended to ensure long-lasting compatibility with Windows personal computers. The survival horror game previously joined other classic Konami titles in GOG's catalog, including Metal Gear, Metal Gear Solid and Metal Gear Solid 2 Substance.

The fourth installment in Konami's survival horror series debuted in June of 2004 for the Xbox and PlayStation 2 consoles. Development by Team Silent took place concurrently with Silent Hill 3 and sought to take the established conventions of the franchise in a new direction.

Unlike previous installments where action takes place in the town of Silent Hill, protagonist Henry Townshend finds himself trapped in his apartment in South Ashfield Heights. The working title, building on the claustrophobic scenario, was "Room 302."

Record label Mondo published the double vinyl soundtrack, featuring music composed by Akira Yamaoka. The 22-track digital soundtrack is streaming on Apple Music, Spotify, YouTube Music, and Amazon Music Unlimited.


From the GOG page:
