Konami Locks September 3 'Press Start' Broadcast, Teases Silent Hill: Townfall, Castlevania: Belmont's Curse and Rev. NOiR Footage

Konami has officially locked the date and lineup for its next Press Start publisher broadcast, confirming via the KONAMI PRESS START show hub that the 30-minute showcase will stream worldwide on Thursday, September 3, 2026 at 8:00 a.m. PT / 11:00 a.m. ET (September 4 at 00:00 JST). The show will land just hours after Sony's back-to-back State of Play and State of Play Japan presentations earlier that morning.

The confirmed lineup focuses on five Konami releases due before the end of 2026. SILENT HILL: Townfall, the first-person psychological horror entry from Screen Burn and Annapurna Interactive published by Konami, headlines the show as it counts down to its September 24 launch on PlayStation 5 and PC. Castlevania: Belmont's Curse, the Evil Empire-developed Switch entry, gets its own gameplay segment as it approaches its October 15 release. Rev. NOiR, Project Zircon and eFootball Kick-Off! round out the lineup, with the eFootball segment focused on next-generation console support for Switch 2. Konami has explicitly noted that the broadcast is expected to run for approximately 30 minutes and will include exclusive gameplay footage and video messages from the development teams.

In a notable clarification up front, Konami has stated that there will be no announcements regarding a remake of SILENT HILL during the broadcast. The publisher has used Press Start broadcasts previously to drop first looks at titles such as METAL GEAR SOLID Δ: SNAKE EATER and SILENT HILL f, and is leaning on the same format here to refresh attention on its near-term slate ahead of the holiday window.

Viewers can tune in live on YouTube, Twitch, Facebook and TikTok, with English and Japanese audio streams available. The show is the second pillar of a packed Thursday, sitting directly behind Sony Interactive Entertainment's two back-to-back State of Play broadcasts, which are confirmed to close with an extended look at the world of Final Fantasy VII Revelation from Square Enix. Konami has reserved the right to change the stream date and time without prior notice.
