The Silent Hill 2 remake will release exclusively for PS5 and PC on October 8, just in time for Halloween. The game is developed by Bloober Team, the studio that created the Xbox Series X timed exclusive, The Medium.

The Silent Hill 2 remake was announced in 2022 and is a reimagining of the classic survival horror game released on PS2. The goal is to recapture the same magic that Team Silent achieved in 2001, but to offer a new experience using cutting-edge technology.

Expect some changes from the original, including voice acting, combat, and some puzzles that fans will remember. Bloober Team has stated that they want to preserve the essence of the original game, but enrich elements where possible.

You can pre-order Silent Hill 2 today. Those who pre-order the standard edition will receive a Mira the dog mask and a Robbie the rabbit mask (PS5 only), while the deluxe edition contains a digital artbook, digital soundtrack, pyramid mask and the two masks mentioned previously. Pre-orders for the Deluxe Edition also grant players 48 hours early access.

Two other Silent Hill games are also in development: Silent Hill: Townfall and Silent Hill 2f. Expect more updates on these two titles in the future.
