Silent Hill: Origins, known as Silent Hill Zero in Japan, is the fifth installment in the Silent Hill survival horror series, developed by Climax Studios and published by Konami for the Sony PlayStation Portable. The game is a prequel intended to explore the backstory to the series' eponymous town, and follows protagonist, truck driver Travis Grady, who finds himself becoming involved in the events of Silent Hill when he rescues a young girl from a burning house. As he tries to investigate the mystery surrounding her fate in the town of Silent Hill, he also finds himself uncovering long-forgotten truths about his childhood.

It was first released for the PSP in North America on November 6, 2007, and was later ported to the PlayStation 2, where it was first released on March 4, 2008 in North America. The initial PSP release garnered a mixed reception but was generally received well, with reviewers complementing gameplay mechanics and good graphics for the hand-held console, whilst most
complaints concerned the brief length of the game and overly-strict adherence to the series' past formula by the new developer. The later PS2 port received slightly lower aggregate scores, owing to lower-than-average quality graphics for the console, and some camera and control issues. Silent Hill Origins follows the same basic formula of the previous titles in the series. It is shown from a third person perspective with alternating camera angles; however, rather than an option to move the camera around, the player can now press a single button to pan it behind Travis. The game also features no heads-up display, providing no status on health without opening the inventory. However, when Travis' health is critical, the edges of the screen will throb red, and a quickening heartbeat can be heard.
