Silent Hill 2 Remake Developer Bloober Signs Deal for Another Game for Konami — Could It Be More Silent Hill?

Mar 01,25

Bloober Team, fresh off the success of its Silent Hill 2 remake, has announced a new partnership with Konami to develop a game based on one of Konami's intellectual properties. While neither company has revealed the title or franchise, Bloober's horror expertise and the remake's two million sales strongly suggest another Silent Hill entry is in the works. Konami will serve as both publisher and rights holder.

Bloober Team CEO Piotr Babieno's statement highlights the collaborative success of the Silent Hill 2 remake, emphasizing its critical acclaim (86/100 Metacritic, 88/100 OpenCritic) and numerous awards, including IGN Japan's Game of the Year 2024. This success, Babieno explains, solidified the foundation for this new project, aligning with Bloober's strategic growth plan. While details remain scarce, Babieno expresses confidence that fans will be thrilled with the upcoming collaboration.

The Silent Hill 2 remake, released October 8, 2024, for PlayStation 5 and PC (Steam), quickly surpassed one million sales within days of launch, potentially setting a new sales record for the franchise (pending Konami's confirmation). IGN's review awarded the remake an 8/10, praising its ability to effectively recreate the chilling atmosphere of the original.
