From Silent Hill to Slitterhead

It’s an honor for us to announce that Keiichirō Toyama will join us at Lucca Comics & Games 2025! 

He is the mind behind iconic titles such as Silent Hill (1999, Konami), Siren (2003–SIE) and Gravity Rush series (2014–SIE). Toyama has introduced an innovative and deeply evocative language, disturbing and fascinating at the same time, by creating creepy atmospheres, dark symbolism and a deep investigation of the human soul. 

In 2020, he founded Bokeh Game Studio Inc., with the aim of exploring new expressive frontiers in total creative freedom. From this independent project came his latest work: Slitterhead (November 2024), an action-adventure horror with experimental hues that marks a return to the origins by mixing suspense, action and unease in an original and provocative universe. 

Keiichirō Toyama's presence at Lucca Comics & Games represents a moment of extraordinary cultural relevance. A unique opportunity to celebrate not only his legendary career but also the video game as a form of art, capable of telling stories, evoking emotions, and exploring the darkest and most complex areas of the human psyche.
