Silent Hill 2 Remake “Release Date and Platforms” To be Revealed in the Near Future

When are we finally going to get a release date for the Silent Hill 2 remake? The game is widely expected to launch sometime in 2024, but PR from Konami has been spotty at best. We got a somewhat-questionable trailer back in February (that even developer Bloober Team criticized as not representative of the final game) and as we head deeper into the year, there’s still a lot to be nailed down.

Then again, sometimes there are slips of the tongue on these earnings calls and there’s always the language barrier to consider, as the above quote was provided in Polish and translated into English. Hopefully Konami finally emerges from its cave and confirms everything soon!

Haven’t been keeping up with Silent Hill 2? The aforementioned ESRB rating provided hints the story may be changing a bit and it seems James Sunderland may have been updated to look more like his original self in recent months.

The Silent Hill 2 remake has been confirmed for PC and PS5, and is expected to arrive this year, but beyond that,
