Silent Hill 2 Remake extended gameplay deep dive

This longer look delves into the game’s signature claustrophobic atmosphere, terrifying enemies, and immersive sound design that should satiate many horror fans. The over-the-shoulder perspective brings a new gameplay layer, as combat is similar to that of Alan Wake 2. Protagonist James Sunderlands fights his way through the cursed town and takes on creepy nurse-monsters, so it appears to be a faithful recreation of the original’s narrative and tone, with modern gameplay improvements and quality of life features.

Return to Silent Hill movie

The third in the film franchise, Return to Silent Hill aims to be a an adaption of the Silent Hill 2 story, with Jeremy Irvine playing James Sunderland. We got a bit of behind the scenes footage from the stream, but no release date has been confirmed.

New merch and collectibles

Also showcased were a Pyramid Head Nendoroid figure, a “Dog Ending” statue, a limited edition coin puzzle set, a Sakura Head 1/6 scale statue, and more.

Silent Hill: The Short Message is the most recent release in the franchise and serves as a sort proof of concept and technology showcase. The game is a free, extremely short experimental psychologic-horror experience that has players exploring an abandoned apartment block while investigating the death of their best friend.
