Konami Celebrates Silent Hill 2 Remake Hitting 2 Million Sales

Konami has celebrated the remarkable success of the Silent Hill 2 remake, which has surpassed 2 million sales. Developed by Bloober Team, the game was released on October 8, 2024, for PlayStation 5 and PC via Steam. While there's no news yet on a version for Xbox Series X and S, the game achieved an impressive milestone by selling one million copies just days after its launch. This rapid sales pace suggests it could be the fastest-selling Silent Hill game ever, though Konami has not officially confirmed this record.

"Since its release, Silent Hill 2 has received a multitude of accolades, including several 'perfect' review scores, multiple award wins, and nominations, cementing itself as a timeless entry in the horror video game genre," Konami stated.

IGN's review of the Silent Hill 2 remake awarded it an 8/10, with our team noting, "Silent Hill 2 is a great way to visit – or revisit – one of the most dread-inducing destinations in the history of survival horror."

The success of the Silent Hill 2 remake may encourage Konami to further expand the franchise, which has seen increased activity in recent years. Projects like Silent Hill f and Silent Hill: Townfall are still in development, and there's also a film adaptation of Silent Hill 2 in the works.

On the modding front, PC players are making significant modifications to the Silent Hill 2 remake, such as removing hair sheen and the game's iconic fog, and even transforming the setting into "Sunny Hills."
