GSC Game World has announced that STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl has officially gone gold. This means the game is done, and a master copy has been sent for mass production (the game will be released on physical discs for Xbox, in addition to digital). In theory, this means no more delays are in order, although there's a famous precedent: CD Projekt RED's Cyberpunk 2077, which was confirmed to have gone gold on October 5, 2020, ahead of its planned November 19, 2020 launch date. However, on October 27, the Polish developer was forced to announce a short delay to […]

When are we finally going to get a release date for the Silent Hill 2 remake? The game is widely expected to launch sometime in 2024, but PR from Konami has been spotty at best. We got a somewhat-questionable trailer back in February (that even developer Bloober Team criticized as not representative of the final game) and as we head deeper into the year, there’s still a lot to be nailed down. The game’s been rated by the ESRB and there are rumors it may pop up at a PlayStation Showcase next month, but Konami themselves have remained silent. Well, […]
The upcoming remake of Silent Hill 2 has brought about a considerable change in the look of the main character, James Sunderland, as revealed in a new game icon on Steam. This is the first time we have seen a glimpse of what to expect with Silent Hill 2's remake in terms of its main character, and the way we have received the information is also quite cliche. A new update on the project's Steam page noticed on SteamDB has shown us the new look of James Sunderland in the upcoming title. Many fans have had a positive reaction towards […]
Sony is planning a new PlayStation Showcase for next month, according to known insider Jeff Grubb. Grubb said as much during a Giantbomb Twitch stream some hours ago in which the team talked about the upcoming Silent Hill 2 Remake receiving an ESRB rating. "I have heard that there will be a PlayStation... something - either a State of Play or a Showcase - in May, so this is probably going to be there", he said during the stream. Grubb later added, "Right, so that's why I brought up the PlayStation thing in May", when talking about the release date of […]
POSSIBLE SPOILERS! The upcoming Silent Hill 2 Remake has been rated by the ERSB, and the rating's description might hint at some new explicit scenes. Recently, Bloober Team's upcoming remake received a rating from South Korea's Game Rating and Administration Committee (GRAC). In addition, the remake received updates on the backend of its Steam page, hinting at an imminent release. Fast forward two weeks, and we now have a US rating by the Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB). Not only does this fuel the hype of an imminent release, but the description of the rating itself might also contain some interesting […]
Konami has handed the keys to one of their most beloved games ever, Silent Hill 2, to Polish developer Bloober Team, which you’d think would indicate the two companies have a close, trusting relationship! Unfortunately, that… doesn’t seem to be the case. Bloober Team has made a number of pointed comments about Konami’s promotion of their Silent Hill 2 remake (or lack thereof) and now they’ve made their sharpest comments yet, outright criticizing the trailer shown during Sony’s most recent State of Play. While I thought the trailer was okay, others have criticized it for over-focusing on action and not […]
Looking back at the history of survival horror, few games loom larger than Silent Hill 2, and so, as you’d expect, there’s been a lot of anticipation, speculation, and concern about the upcoming Silent Hill 2 remake. Can Bloober Team successfully deliver a modern version of Konami’s classic? It’s an open question and we’ve seen very little of the remake since it was first announced back in 2022. Well, today during the most recent State of Play show, Sony and Konami gave us a revealing new peek at the Silent Hill 2 remake. The trailer shows James Sunderland making his […]
Rumors emerged earlier this past weekend, and now Sony itself has confirmed it – a new PlayStation State of Play showcase will be coming our way this week. It sounds like this will be a big one, as Sony is promising to deliver a 40-minute-plus show (most State of Plays are more in the 15-to-20-minute range) covering 15 games. In their announcement, Sony singles out Rise of the Ronin and Stellar Blade as two games that they’re specifically focusing on. Get ready for a new State of Play! https://t.co/KDyuY2Uvfq Tune in on YouTube, Twitch, or TikTok this Wednesday at 2pm […]
Konami is preparing a marketing campaign for the Silent Hill 2 remake which should begin soon, judging from some recent comments Speaking with Bankier.pl, CEO Piotr Babieno commented on the remake of the second entry in the popular series the studio is working on, saying that they believe the marketing campaign in preparation by Konami will start very soon, suggesting that the remake's development is close to completion for the 2024 release window suggested by Sony with a recent trailer. The Silent Hill 2 remake isn't the only project in the works by the Polish development studio. According to Bloober […]
As is often the case, the folks at PlayStation have released a hype video for the new year, showcasing some of the games that will be arriving on PS5 in 2024. In addition to generally being a fun watch, the trailer also essentially confirms 2024 releases for a number of games that hadn’t solidified a release window yet, including Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, the Silent Hill 2 remake, and Firewalk Studios’ mysterious PvP shooter Concord. You can check out the PlayStation 2024 hype trailer, below. In addition to the trailer, Sony also has a new website showcasing some […]
The Silent Hill 2 remake is likely content complete and in its polishing phase, as developer Bloober Team is shifting its focus on other projects. As reported today on the ResetERA forums by well-known insider Dusk Golem, the Polish studio shared an update this week that revealed how it is shifting its focus on its 2025 Skybound game project and how it has received funding for an Unreal Engine 5-powered project from the Polish Agency for Enterprise Development, on the condition that certain goals are met. As such, new hiring positions have been opened up, and resources and employees have […]
Developer Bloober Team has released a statement regarding the development of the highly-anticipated Silent Hill 2 Remake. Announced more than a year ago, the remake of Silent Hill 2 is coming to both PS5 and PC. Since then, both Bloober Team and publisher Konami have been rather quiet, and we've yet to receive more information and a release date for the remake. Yes, Bloober Team's Chief Marketing Officer Anna Jasińska confirmed that the game will stick to the story canon of the original game, although certain areas will receive adjustments. We also covered some rumors about launch date news recently […]
Ever since KONAMI confirmed years of rumors to reveal that a SILENT HILL 2 remake was indeed in production, fans have been eagerly awaiting the day they'll once again be […]
