How Konami and Bloober Team Did the Impossible with Silent Hill 2 Remake

Back in May of 2022, whispers started circulating about a remake of Silent Hill 2, sparked by leaked images of an unannounced Silent Hill title eventually released as Silent Hill: The Short Message. Although neither Konami nor Bloober Team officially confirmed it, the mere suggestion was enough to ignite a wave of anticipation… and trepidation.

Throughout its journey, I’ve seen Bloober Team stumble a bit in the past, so it wasn’t too shocking or unfair to see skepticism surrounding their remake of Silent Hill 2 before its release. Yet, just as the doubts were valid, so is the torrent of praise that has followed. Now, with the global launch on PS5 and PC, Silent Hill 2 has proven everyone wrong and miraculously hit a home run. The survival horror remake has left critics and audiences awestruck, surpassing all expectations.
