It’s been a very long time coming. So lengthy, actually, that it’s personally fairly arduous to consider that is actual and never simply one other leak. Revealed throughout Konami’s Silent Hill Transmission as we speak, a remake of some of the prolific video games within the horror style — Silent Hill 2 — has been introduced.
The remake is at the moment being developed by Bloober Crew, as earlier rumours and leaks recommended. The developer is behind horror titles Layers of Concern and The Medium, that are each completely common. I assume we are able to now all be relieved that these leaks may be laid to relaxation a minimum of.
Masahiro Ito, creature designer for Silent Hill, Silent Hill 2, and Silent Hill 3, (additionally artwork director on each 2, and three) is lastly again on board, too. With Ito, the creator of Pyramid Head himself on board, this remake already reveals some promise. Let’s now simply hope that Bloober Crew can pull this out the bag.
Akira Yamaoka, the good composer behind the soundtracks for the primary three Silent Hill video games (among the greatest soundtracks of all time, in my view), and composer on just a few later video games within the sequence, will even be concerned within the improvement of Silent Hill 2’s remake.
Silent Hill 2 follows James Sunderland by the treacherous city as he makes an attempt to seek out his spouse after he receives a letter from her. The difficulty, nonetheless, is that Mary (James’ spouse) died three years earlier. This then descends into one hell of a journey that will get progressively extra tousled, and it’s incredible.
It’ll be attention-grabbing to see how the remake is executed, provided that the PS1-style is a part of what gave Silent Hill 2 it’s edge. What do you reckon to this basic being remade?
