Silent Hill 2 Copies Seem to Have Leaked Ahead of Release

As a hardcore fan who’s been eagerly awaiting the return of Silent Hill since the original games left us hanging, this early leak has sent my heart racing faster than James Sunderland chasing down a monster. Having played through the original multiple times and even dabbled in modding it, I can only imagine the sheer joy that must be coursing through ConflictConscious665’s veins right now.


Ahead of its October 8th release date, it appears that a fortunate fan has managed to snag an early copy of the remake of Silent Hill 2 for the PlayStation 5. As reported by Reddit user ConflictConscious665, someone they know has acquired the game and has already delved into it. Although the method used to obtain the game remains unclear, the user has shared some evidence in the form of screenshots. The initial screenshot displays the player’s gaming time and progress, along with their current position within the game.

It’s worth noting that, surprisingly, the screenshot shows the player has completed roughly 39% of the game after playing for eight hours. This aligns with creative director Mateusz Lenart’s statement that Silent Hill 2 might take around 16-18 hours to finish. While gamers are typically hesitant about developers’ estimates regarding playtime, it appears this game could be about twice as long as the initial version. For those who value game length and their overall investment in terms of time and money, this detail could make a significant difference.

One of the biggest questions surrounding the Silent Hill 2 remake is what level of quality players can expect. The original version of Silent Hill 2 is considered one of the best games ever, and a lot of fans have been concerned about developer Bloober Team’s lack of experience with AAA games. We probably won’t have any reviews until the week of release, but ConflictConscious665 says that the person playing has been impressed so far, positively comparing it to the remake of Resident Evil 2.

It seems plausible that the early release of the leaked Silent Hill 2 copy was due to a store mistakenly displaying the game prematurely. This isn’t an unusual occurrence in the gaming world, as many retailers have unintentionally violated street dates in the past. If this is indeed the case, it might mean that other individuals have access to the game before its official launch. While spoilers for the story may not be a major concern given that it’s a remake, dedicated Silent Hill fans who prefer minimal prior knowledge might want to stay clear of game discussions until the official release date, as a precaution!
