Will Silent Hill 2 Remake be Bloober Team’s (Layers of Fear) masterpiece? Despite the criticism of the latest trailer, the studio shows great confidence.
Silent Hill 2 Remake will finally have a release date soon. “ We are in the final stages of development for Silent Hill 2. An announcement of a release date and platforms will be made soon » said Piotr Babieno, CEO of Bloober Team during the release of the studio’s results. During this report, the director also said he was very optimistic about the project which could well propel the structure towards other spheres of horror. And that’s all the boss hopes for.
Bloober Team sells Silent Hill 2 Remake like never before
Silent Hill 2 Remake release date is coming soon. If we compare Bloober Team’s statement and the rumors, the announcement will perhaps take place by May during a PlayStation Showcase. As a reminder, it is indeed a PS5 console exclusive, which will be available on PC, and the game is therefore present whenever it can during Sony Interactive Entertainment events. The wait around this rereading is very high among survival horror fans, but so is the tension. Why ? That Bloober Team is not up to such a challenge and spoils a monument of the genre.
The last time Silent Hill 2 Remake showed up, it was a cold shower. The combat gameplay trailer was heavily criticized in terms of content and form. Highlighting the action for a title adored in particular for its atmosphere did not work, and the result was not convincing. Very quickly, the studio spoke out to blame Konami. “We are not responsible for the marketing side. Our partner [Konami] is entirely responsible for this. […] This trailer certainly does not reflect the spirit of the game. When players see the real gameplay, they will see it in a new light” Bloober Team said about Silent Hill 2 Remake.
The Polish team is therefore confident about the final version, even very confident according to a statement in the company’s latest report. “We are not only excited, but we are also very confident about the end result” (via pl_evil). Silent Hill 2 Remake, a future hit? We’ll see in due time, but the project is crucial for the studio.
The game of all hopes for the studio
Silent Hill 2 Remake is therefore not unanimously unanimous for the moment, but Bloober Team seems to be listening to feedback visibly. An image found on SteamDB reveals a major change to James Sunderland. The main protagonist of the game. If this is confirmed, the character design is now much closer to the original in terms of the face and age that the character appears to have. A good point because the studio will have to convince at all costs. Silent Hill 2 Remake could be Bloober Team’s calling card. One that would allow the company to land a number of significant projects. “We don’t hide it whether internally or externally. This is the most important test of our actions” added Piotr Babieno.
