Konami Hails Silent Hill 2 Remake After Hitting 2 Million Sales Milestone

Konami is celebrating the phenomenal success of the Silent Hill 2 remake, which has already surpassed two million copies sold. Developed by Bloober Team, the remake launched on PlayStation 5 and PC via Steam on October 8th, 2024, achieving one million sales within days of release. While Konami hasn't officially confirmed it, this rapid sales figure suggests it might be the fastest-selling Silent Hill game ever.

Konami praised the game, highlighting its critical acclaim, including perfect scores from several reviewers and numerous awards and nominations, solidifying its place as a timeless horror classic. IGN's review awarded the remake an 8/10, describing it as a "great way to visit – or revisit – one of the most dread-inducing destinations in the history of survival horror."

This remarkable sales success likely signals further expansion of Konami's Silent Hill plans, which have already seen a significant resurgence. Silent Hill f and Silent Hill: Townfall are currently in development, and the possibility of more remakes from the franchise's past is certainly on the table. A Silent Hill 2 film adaptation is also in the works.

PC players are already creatively engaging with the Silent Hill 2 remake, creating impressive mods that alter aspects like hair sheen, the iconic fog, and even transform the game into a sunny, less terrifying experience.
