Silent Hill 2 is getting a remake courtesy of Bloober Team

pcinvasion.com:

Confirming previous rumors, the Layers of Fear developer Bloober Team is indeed developing a Silent Hill 2 remake, and, judging by the trailer, it’s much further along than anticipated. During a Silent Hill showcase today, Konami unveiled the first trailer for the remake. And it’s not a teaser trailer, oh no. We get our first glimpse of Pyramid Head, and a long look at both the eponymous town and protagonist James Sunderland.

The trailer for the Silent Hill 2 remake comes in at a hefty three minutes. Close-up shots of James looking into the mirror confirms two things: this is certainly Silent Hill 2, and it’s looking damn pretty. We watch as James wanders through the town’s empty streets, passing by abandoned buildings and rusted vehicles. It’s the same Silent Hill many of us remember from back in 2001. But there’s no denying that this soon-to-be return is going to be a gorgeous one.

And, honestly, just as creepy. The famous blanket of fog still wraps silent hill, but we have new details now such as flowing leaves and streets slick with moisture. If we’re looking at any gameplay here, then the Silent Hill 2 remake is going to run at some fairly high framerate. The improved fidelity will also allow more details in James’ face, giving him once unseen level of emotion. Most of it is confusion (or gas), but I can’t blame him for that.

There is, naturally, a big question to ask: is the Silent Hill 2 remake heading to PC? The end of the trailer during the showcase only displayed the PlayStation 5 logo. However, the new trailer (seen above) does indeed include a logo for Steam. That’s good. Reports are saying that the game will be a timed console exclusive on the PS5. We can only assume for now that it may end up on the PC
