OG Silent Hill 2 director is "very happy" about the remake: "Whether it's good or bad doesn't affect the original"

Silent Hill 2's director is "very happy" that the new remake is bringing his horror classic to an entirely different generation. 

Masashi Tsuboyama led the original game with the sadly-shuttered Team Silent all the way back in 2001, and he's now chimed in on what remakers Bloober Team have achieved in 2024.

"I think the value of the remake is that a new generation can play it" Tsuboyama tweeted earlier this week right as glowing Silent Hill 2 Remake reviews began to flood the internet. "As a creator, I'm very happy about it. It's been 23 years! Even if you don't know the original, you can just enjoy the remake as it is. Whether it's good or bad doesn't affect the original."
