Silent Hill 2 Remake Leaks Early: Get Ready for a Haunting Good Time!
Silent Hill 2 Remake: The Horror Game’s Street Date Has Been Broken
It’s another day, another reminder that some stores have already broken the street date for the highly anticipated Silent Hill 2 Remake. Retail copies of the classic horror game are now out in the wild, and fans are eager to get their hands on it.
Leaks and Spoilers
While some fans were trying to avoid spoilers by avoiding officially sanctioned hours-long streams, images of the physical release have started popping up on social media sites like Reddit. These images feature a disc with the iconic phrase "There was a hole here. It’s gone now" emblazoned across it, as well as reversible cover art.
New Screenshots and Content
Some of these posts have been accompanied by screenshots allegedly taken from the Remake that are not from any of the streams we’ve seen so far, nor are they images formally released by Konami. This has sparked excitement among fans, who are eager to see more of the game.
Why Spoilers Matter
It may seem redundant to warn you about spoilers of a 20+-year-old game, but for many, this will be their first opportunity to play the horror for themselves. Additionally, Bloober Team recently teased that the Remake’s running time is double that of the original game, and the official streams we’ve seen so far demonstrate that there’s plenty of additional content and surprises… even for fans very familiar with the original game.
Game Details and Pre-Order Information
In other news, we now know that Silent Hill 2 Remake will take up 50.5GB on PS5. Digital pre-orderers will be able to pre-load the game up to 48 hours ahead of release, so that’s from midnight on October 4th for Deluxe Edition owners, and midnight on October 6th for the standard edition.
What’s Next for Silent Hill?
A website unveiled to mark Silent Hill 2’s anniversary last week has given us our best clue as to what unannounced Silent Hill game may be on the way: either a Silent Hill 4: The Room Remake or even a direct Silent Hill 4 sequel. Fans have been poking around the site and using its clues to piece together a new mystery.
