The Silent Hill 2 Remake, developed by Bloober Team in collaboration with Konami, has recently exceeded five million sales globally. A significant achievement for what was once a relatively niche horror series.
Launched in late October 2024, the game returned us to James Sunderland’s iconic green jacket and worn-out Pontiac Ventura. While this faithful reimagining of the survival horror classic did change some elements from the original, it largely stayed true to the original storyline.
To commemorate this remarkable milestone, Konami is offering a spring sale on a selection of Silent Hill titles in the PlayStation store. This means you can currently snag the Silent Hill 2 remake at a reduced price, as well as the excellent Silent Hill f if you’re interested.
Silent Hill 2 has recently been transformed into a film, thanks to Return to Silent Hill. Reviews from critics and audiences have been… mixed. Nevertheless, the director expresses a desire to adapt more, remarking: “plenty of people are thinking I’m doing a pretty good job.” Regarding future games, we know that a Silent Hill 1 remake is underway at Bloober Team, although when we will get our first official look at that game remains largely uncertain.
If you haven’t tried the Silent Hill 2 Remake yet, consider checking out Eurogamer’s review. In it, Vikki Blade noted: “Against the odds, Bloober Team has delivered a remake that both expands Silent Hill 2 in just the right places, and gives careful attention to what it preserves.”
