Editorial overview
What it is
Silent Hill 2 Remake is a ground-up reimagining of the 2001 psychological horror game. It follows James Sunderland as he searches for his deceased wife in the fog-shrouded town of Silent Hill. The remake features entirely rebuilt visuals in Unreal Engine 5, over-the-shoulder gameplay, reworked combat, and new voice acting.
The premise
Having received a letter from his deceased wife, James Sunderland heads to Silent Hill, where they shared so many memories, in the hope of seeing her one more time. There, by the lake, he finds a woman eerily similar to her… "My name... is Maria," the woman smiles. Her face, her voice... She's just like her.
