shows Bloober’s long-awaited remake won’t launch on “other formats” until October 8, 2025 at the earliest. Silent Hill 2 launches on PC and PS5 on October 8, 2024.

While “other formats” is a vague phrase, it no doubt includes Xbox consoles (Xbox Series X and S) and, potentially, Nintendo’s next-generation console, dubbed Switch 2. The Silent Hill 2 remake will of course be playable on the upcoming PS5 Pro, which launches on November 7.

Sony’s partnership with Konami for Silent Hill 2 has not only resulted in a year-long console exclusivity, but full support for the DualSense’s features, including haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, and a dynamic lightbar feature that displays protagonist James' health status.

Silent Hill 2 is a remake of the 2001 psychological horror classic. Players reunite with James Sunderland following a mysterious letter from his late wife, Mary, and search for clues in the terrifying namesake town, which is, of course, teeming with nightmarish monsters.
