11 The cast of SILENT HILL: Townfall was announced on August 25, 2026, alongside a Cast Reveal Trailer shown during a summer showcase. Three roles were confirmed, one for each of the game's principal characters, and the same reveal was the first time the third of them had been named at all. A Japanese voice cast for the same three roles followed on September 3, 2026.

66 The credits in the table are the ones the publisher listed with the announcement rather than a full filmography for any of the three. First-party material gives the second role simply as Zoe; the surname Ellis is legible in the game itself. Observation is Screen Burn's own earlier game, which makes Kezia Burrows the only one of the three whose listed credit points back to the studio.

1010 The three Japanese voice roles were revealed on September 3, 2026 during KONAMI PRESS START, a Konami broadcast that gave the game a segment ahead of launch. Series producer Motoi Okamoto introduced new details there, video messages from the three announced cast members aired, and writer and director Jon McKellan spoke about the story and characters. Konami described the Japanese names as revealed for the first time.

1212 The announcement itself gives the three names in Japanese. The romanisations in the table follow the spellings Konami uses in its own English material, which renders Zoe's performer as Yuhko Kaida.

1616 Konami published a short comment from each of the three actors alongside the reveal.

1818 Jovan Adepo, on Simon: "When you play this game, it's going to feel absolutely SILENT HILL. But for SILENT HILL: Townfall, it's going to feel like you're venturing down a road that you haven't before."
1919  
2020 Kezia Burrows, on Zoe: "Zoe's character is deeply connected to Simon's journey, and more important than the player might think."
2121  
2222 Terry O'Quinn, on Richard: "I'm aware that there's a very large and passionate following to SILENT HILL, and that initially piqued my interest. But what really pulled me in was the script."

2424 How the Roles Fit
2525  
2626 The three announced roles map onto the shape of the game. Simon Ordell is the protagonist, and most of the game is seen and heard from his side; reviews of the released game report that Zoe and Richard each have playable sections of their own as well. Zoe is the voice that reaches him through static on the CRTV, asking him to come back to her. Richard is described in first-party copy as the man who summons Simon back to St. Amelia and sets the events of the game in motion. Two of the three, then, are introduced to the player as voices rather than as figures on screen.
2727  
2828 Simon and Zoe had both been introduced earlier in 2026, Simon at the February reveal and Zoe at the June showcase where the release date was set. Richard arrived with the cast list. The Steam listing now carries five trailers, the Launch Trailer of September 21, 2026 among them.

3030 The trailers themselves, including the cast reveal and the regional cuts each one ships in, are listed on Trailers and Media. Writer and director Jon McKellan spoke about the story and characters during the same September broadcast.
