Silent Hill 2 comes to PC thanks to Bloober Team persuasion

In a recent interview by Polish finance news website Bankier.pl, Bloober Team's Director Piotr Babieno revealed that they did strongly encourage Konami to release Silent Hill 2 remake on PC simultaneously to PlayStation release. The original plan of the publisher and rights holder was for the game to be PlayStation exclusive (until October 8th 2025).

Seems like Bloober Team were very right to do so. The game is gathering a lot of interest on Steam and currently sits at the #24th spot of upcoming wishlisted games (as of writing this article) getting ahead of other popular October releases like Dragon Age: Veilguard, Until Dawn and Black Ops 6! There's certainly a lot of hope from the fans out there (including me!) for the game to deliver experience at least on par with the original. For now we only have trailers, screenshots and developer commentary here and there. If these are anything to judge the progress by then it seem things are going in the right direction.

In the aforementioned interview there was also a lot of praise coming from Bloober Team's CEO, saying that both parties are happy with the way this partnership is going and he expresses hope that Silent Hill 2 is only the beginning of this long road. I have my fingers crossed too. I'm happy that it's Silent Hill 2 getting a remake but it would be also nice to have the whole trilogy remade!
