We've made another one! We went to Tokyo to play the game's opening and talk to Konami and Bloober Team and about the ambitious, impressive overhaul!
Plus, Assassin's Creed Shadows, Marvel Rivals, Sonic X Shadow Generations, and more!
Silent Hill 2
Silent Hill’s fogginess is synonymous with PlayStation to us. From the blocky terror of the original on PS1 to the more sinister and complete designs of Silent Hill 2 on PS2 – these consoles can immerse us in our worst nightmares as much as delight us.
And we're not alone. Silent Hill 2’s mature story and truly psychological horror were for many the introduction to how deep games could go. So well-judged is it, that even revisiting it now – wrangling tanky controls – the trick still works. It’s great.
Which is what makes the prospect of doing a full modern remake scary in a different way. How can a studio do it justice? We flew out to Japan to visit Konami and Bloober Team, take a look at the Silent Hill 2 remake, and ask how they’ve done it. We can’t wait to see more.
