<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Before sitting down to play three hours of the Silent Hill 2<\/em> remake<\/a> at a recent Konami-led press event in London, we were shown a new trailer. Like the previous trailers, it left me skeptical. Although I\u2019m not opposed to the project of remaking Silent Hill 2<\/em>, I\u2019m wary of any modernizing instinct that replaces the aged, the weird, and even the off-putting with the same glazed genericism of the 2020s AAA game.<\/p>\n

After getting my hands on it, I think some of that skepticism is warranted. I also think that the original Silent Hill 2<\/em> is a very, very good video game.<\/p>\n

In the opening section, James jogging around the streets could be any game with a multimillion-dollar budget that you can pick up on the PS5. Yes, it\u2019s foggy, but other than that it is bland. The switch to an over-the-shoulder camera, the breaking windows to search through drawers for health items, and the white cloth marking places that are interactable all feel unspecific.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The latter two mechanics also point to the game being bigger, potentially significantly so. We were told the game is 12+ hours, while the original clocks in around eight. As an example, Neely\u2019s Bar \u2014 once a small, flavorful spot with a clue marked on a map \u2014 becomes a quest location that involves visiting another new part of the town to pick up an item before running back to solve a puzzle. We were told that these new puzzles add to the lore of the franchise, a promise that will excite some \u2014 but I know I am not alone in being exhausted by them.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t think this will do good things for the pacing. Konami PR recommended several times that we spend only an hour in the opening of the game before using a pre-set save point to jump ahead to the apartments section. I did that, so I can\u2019t tell you what lore might have been buried in the Neely\u2019s Bar puzzle. I also can\u2019t tell you how it feels to have to spend a long stretch in the modern version of that town before getting to anything else, but the suggestion that we not do it speaks for itself, to some extent.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

On the other hand, skipping ahead to the apartments wiped away the generic feeling. They\u2019re claustrophobic, labyrinthine, and tense. Their design highlights some of what made Silent Hill 2<\/em> great in the first place but which isn\u2019t common practice in modern AAA games. Gradually exploring with James\u2019 scribbled-on map, for example, feels incomparably better than any game with a minimap or a tagged overhead compass.<\/p>\n

This section also brings the remake\u2019s improvements to the forefront. Watching a YouTube video of the original apartments segment after playing, I was taken aback by the difference in the sound design. The original James clunks with every footstep, but he hits enemies with a kind of silent disregard. In the remake, he sounded frightened and horrified when he swung into a mannequin creature. The combat changes aren\u2019t anything stunning, but actor Luke Roberts deserves the credit for selling them.<\/p>\n

Roberts and the other voice actors were apparently also key in finalizing the script for the remake, says Maciej G\u0142omb, lead producer at Bloober Team. \u201cThese were all professionals,\u201d he says. \u201cSo they often had ideas on how to sell a scene or a specific dialogue line. As long as they were in line with the tone we wanted, we usually [trusted] their experience and their proficiency.\u201d<\/p>\n

The script has also been reworked slightly to be more \u201cunderstandable,\u201d says G\u0142omb, and edited with regard to how newer technology such as face motion capture has allowed the team to \u201cshow and not tell\u201d certain aspects like emotional beats. But, while many of the mechanics have been updated for the remake, it\u2019s the narrative that Bloober Team is trying to keep \u201cas close as possible\u201d to the original, says creative director Mateusz Lenart: \u201cThe characters of the original game, their specific arcs and endings, and what those characters are.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

There will, however, be additional endings. \u201cI think that was one of the first requests from Konami, at the very beginning,\u201d says G\u0142omb. The original endings will all be present \u2014 \u201ceven the funny ones,\u201d although \u201cwith our own twist for a little bit of an expansion.\u201d But in new game plus runs, there will be the possibility to get other outcomes. Although Bloober Team wasn\u2019t about to spoil anything directly, G\u0142omb did say that the devs would be \u201cadding something from the different worlds; from the different game,\u201d presumably hinting at overlap with other Silent Hills.<\/p>\n

In my last question for G\u0142omb and Lenart, I ask whether they brought any outside inspirations to the remake. Silent Hill 2<\/em> is famous for drawing on film \u2014 Jacob\u2019s Ladder<\/em> and the work of David Lynch \u2014 and paintings by artists like Francis Bacon. I\u2019m hard-pressed to think of another game with 2024 Silent Hill 2<\/em>\u2019s budget that reflects that kind of influence, and in particular I want to know if there\u2019s anything in the last 20 years of art that\u2019s contributed to the way the game has been updated.<\/p>\n

The answer is mostly no. Lenart mentions the work of Italian painter Nicola Samori and French artist and performer Olivier de Sagazan as having ongoing impacts on his work, beginning as far back as Layers of Fear<\/em>. But this project has mostly involved returning to the original game\u2019s inspirations<\/a>. \u201cFor the whole team, going back to those movies was the first thing that we wanted to do,\u201d says Lenart. But \u201cthere was no need to look for much more,\u201d he says. \u201cWe didn\u2019t feel the need to look for modern references because the game is kind of stuck into that era.\u201d<\/p>\n

At the time, I was again skeptical of this. As I\u2019ve said, the remade Silent Hill 2<\/em> is very much a product of its time in how it\u2019s been modernized. It often looks and mostly plays like any other AAA game; it did not have to. But then I saw Pyramid Head<\/a> for the first time.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Like in the original game, you first run into Pyramid Head lit up in ominous red behind a flimsily barred-off corridor in Wood Side apartments. Unlike in the original game, you already know who Pyramid Head is.<\/p>\n

I cannot overstate the dread that I felt at seeing Pyramid Head for the first time. Despite not having played the game before, cultural osmosis had, unbeknownst to me until this exact moment, put a fear of being chased and killed by this creature deep in my bones. I stood there, looking at Pyramid Head through the bars, being looked at through the bars. And then the person next to me coughed, and I almost jumped out of my skin.At its best, Silent Hill 2<\/em> (2024)\u2019s biggest inspiration is Silent Hill 2<\/em> (2001). And, again, Silent Hill 2<\/em> (2001) is a very, very good video game. It is, in the most crystalised sense of the word, iconic. Where the remake can make that iconism work, and draw on what made it that way, it will also be very, very good. That won\u2019t be all the time, but it might be for enough of it.<\/p>\n

\n

Silent Hill 2 will be released Oct. 8 on PlayStation 5 and Windows PC. <\/em><\/p>\n
