The remake of Silent Hill 2 was announced in autumn 2022, but since then, we have only been shown a few trailers and that's it. It seems that Konami does not want to reveal all the cards before the release. Speaking of the release. If we know something about the plot or gameplay, the release date of SH 2 is more mysterious than Silent Hill itself. But one person from the Bloober Team studio, which is responsible for the development of the remake, gave a little more information.

Here's What We Know

The studio's CEO Piotr Babieno, in Bloober Team's latest annual report, said that the release date should be expected "soon".

We are in the final stages of development of Sillent Hill 2. We expect the release date and platforms to be announced soon.

We would like to remind you that the game will be released first on PlayStation 5 and then on PC.

Flashback

Having received a letter from his late wife, James sets off in the hope of seeing her again in the city with which they are connected by memories: Silent Hill. There, by the lake, he meets a woman who looks very much like her. But what really brought him to the town?

Bloober Team is in charge of the development. The team approaches the remake with great care and respect for the original game. The developers are working closely with the creators of the original game to preserve the unique atmosphere of Silent Hill 2.

One of the features of the horror remake will be the standard third-person view. The game will also have a rebuilt combat system and improved facial animations to better convey the emotions of the characters.

The game is being developed on the Unreal Engine 5 game engine. Along with this, they are using Lumen for lighting and Nanite for level design. All this will help to update the foggy city and enhance its atmosphere.
