This is Silent Hill 2
The second part of the series originally appeared in 2001 for the PS2, later versions for PC and Xbox followed. As in the remake, we slipped into the role of James Sunderland, who ended up in the mysterious town of Silent Hill after receiving a letter from his wife, Mary.
The curious thing about it: she’s been dead for quite some time. And that’s by no means the only strange thing about it. During his search, James not only meets opaque characters, but is also attacked by surreal monsters. Besides the fights, in which we often felt quite defenseless, we solved a variety of puzzles to help James on his mission.
It remains to be seen whether the remake manages to capture the very special dark, melancholic, creepy atmosphere that fans still love for the original. We can be excited. However, there is no release date yet.
More Silent Hill games
In addition to the remake, two other completely new games for the R brand were announced in the live stream: Silent Hill: Townfall and Silent Hill f. However, these are still quite mysterious.
