Bloober Team

Bloober Team has plenty of irons in the fire, with Silent Hill 2’s long anticipated remake being the game that the studio is currently focused on most, but it looks like it will soon begin talking about its other projects as well.

Twitter user pl_evil has helpfully translated a recent letter to shareholders from Bloober Team, showing that their new game "Project C" will be revealed later this year. This will be the studio's next original game, after they wrapped up Layers Of Fear last year with, confusingly, Layers Of Fear (the natural progression for a series: Layers Of Fear, Layers Of Fear 2, and then Layers Of Fear again, although it was going to be called Layers Of Fears at one point).

Bloober Team has said it’s “very confident” in its upcoming Silent Hill 2 remake.

The horror veterans at Bloober Team have partnered with a Take-Two Interactive subsidiary on a new game based on an original IP. Bloober Team itself recently confirmed the existence of this mysterious project, in addition to providing a status update on one other yet-to-be-revealed game that it currently has in the works.

Bloober Team has admitted in a recent shareholders report that the Silent Hill 2 remake is "its most important test", but one that it's excited and confident about.

Bloober Team CEO Piotr Babieno announced some good news for fans anticipating the Silent Hill 2 remake, stating a release date will be announced soon. There have been a number of rumors surrounding Silent Hill 2, with gamers being given possible release windows of Bloober Team's upcoming classic Konami horror game remake. Many of them have stated that Silent Hill 2 will likely be released sometime this year, which may appear to be the case if Babieno is to be believed.

When are we finally going to get a release date for the Silent Hill 2 remake? The game is widely expected to launch sometime in 2024, but PR from Konami has been spotty at best. We got a somewhat-questionable trailer back in February (that even developer Bloober Team criticized as not representative of the final game) and as we head deeper into the year, there’s still a lot to be nailed down. The game’s been rated by the ESRB and there are rumors it may pop up at a PlayStation Showcase next month, but Konami themselves have remained silent.

Bloober Team CEO Piotr Babieno has provided an update on Silent Hill 2 in an IR/conference following the group’s consolidated annual report for 2023 (via MauroNL on Twitter). He noted that the team is “in the final stages of work” on the remake, and “We expect that a release date and platforms on which the game will appear will be revealed soon.”

The upcoming Silent Hill 2 remake may have given its protagonist a makeover to make him look younger.

Konami and Bloober Team have been unnervingly quiet about Silent Hill 2’s upcoming remake, but though official details have been hard to come by, some interesting new tidbits have seemingly emerged that hint at changes being made to the game behind the scenes based on feedback from fans.

Bloober Team has seemingly amended the face of James Sunderland in its highly-anticipated Silent Hill 2 Remake.

It looks like publisher Konami and developer Bloober Team have redesigned the main character in their Silent Hill 2 remake, and fans are taking the news pretty well.

Journalist Jeff Grubb recently claimed that Konami and Bloober Team’s Silent Hill 2 remake is going to be showcased at an as-yet-unannounced PlayStation event in May, and another leaker is now corroborating that.

Sony is reportedly planning to hold a PlayStation product showcase next month.

We got out first look at Silent Hill 2’s remake since its announcement with a new trailer at a State of Play event earlier this year, and though there were many who weren’t pleased with how the trailer turned out (including the game’s own developer), it looks like Konami is going to take another crack at showcasing the survival horror remake.

Bloober Team’s remake of Silent Hill 2 has received a rating from the ESRB.

Silent Hill 2 has been rated by the ESRB.

The development of the Silent Hill 2 remake looks right on track as new details emerge about its ESRB rating. From what fans have come to expect of the horror franchise over the decades, the rating for Silent Hill 2 remake seems very on point.

PlayStation suggested earlier this year that the Silent Hill 2 remake would be out sometime in 2024, but other than repeated assurances that the game is in the final stages of development, neither Konami nor developer Bloober Team have said anything at all about a launch date. Recent developments have, however, indicated that that could change in the not-too-distant future.

GameStop has potentially revealed that the Silent Hill 2 remake will be releasing in late 2024. Fans have been waiting years for the Silent Hill 2 remake, with many asking for it well before it was even officially announced. The latest official word on the game is that it's due for release at some point in 2024, but some recent happenings led survival-horror fans to believe that they could potentially be playing it in the very near future.

Bloober Team and Konami’s Silent Hill 2 remake didn’t exactly put its best foot forward with its combat-focused trailer earlier in the year (a sentiment that even Bloober Team agrees with), but even though the game has attracted some skepticism, given its significance to fans of the Silent Hill franchise, it continues to be one that many are hoping to hear more about soon. And it seems like Konami might be preparing to kickstart that process.

KONAMI has remained silent about the release date of the Silent Hill 2 remake. However, several clues point to an inbound announcement.

Silent Hill 2 has been rated in Korea.

Silent Hill 2 Remake has been rated in Korea.

The Silent Hill 2 Remake could be released soon, as indicated by a recent rating posted by the Game Rating and Administration Committee (GRAC). The Silent Hill 2 Remake was first announced in 2022 as a collaboration between Konami and Bloober Team. Fans were a little cautious about a remake of the seminal horror game, especially after the controversial Silent Hill 2 Combat Trailer that was released in February. Despite some trepidations about the game, it appears that fans may see the full game's release date soon, thanks to a new rating provided by GRAC.

Konami has yet to officially announce a release date for the Bloober Team-developed Silent Hill 2 remake, though PlayStation did suggest earlier in the year that the game would be out sometime in 2024. As such, when a release date or window for the game remained elusive even when a new trailer was shown off last month, questions were raised once again about how far away from launch the game is.

According to a Konami producer, the upcoming Silent Hill 2 remake from Bloober Team is «in the final stages of development.» The original Silent Hill 2 is often pointed to as one of the best survival-horror games ever made, and so it's really no surprise that many fans were excited when a remake was announced.

The president of Bloober Team says Konami‘s latest trailer for Silent Hill 2 is not an accurate representation of the game his studio is working on.

Bloober Team’s president is unhappy with the latest Silent Hill 2 remake trailer, saying it’s not an accurate representation of the game being made at the Polish studio.

The president of Bloober Team, the Polish developer behind the upcoming and long-awaited Silent Hill 2 remake, has stated that the recent combat trailer was handled by Konami. The video in question debuted during the January 31 PlayStation State of Play showcase and represented the first tangible gameplay footage of the Silent Hill 2 remake that fans have been clamoring for.

The CEO of Polish developer Bloober Team, Piotr Babieno, has placed the blame for last month's poorly-received trailer for its Silent Hill 2 remake on publisher Konami.

Silent Hill had a strong presence at Sony’s last State of Play, from the stealth release of Silent Hill: The Short Message to a new trailer for Bloober Team’s remake of Silent Hill 2. While the former crossed two million downloads despite mixed reviews, the latter also garnered its share of mixed responses. You can check out our thoughts here.

When it was unveiled that Silent Hill would have a resurgence, fans of the franchise were likely hesitant. Several modern attempts at the franchise didn’t quite yet the strides that the original Team Silent was able to provide. However, there was also the confirmation that the new selection of games included Silent Hill 2, a remake from Bloober Team. 

Konami has handed the keys to one of their most beloved games ever, Silent Hill 2, to Polish developer Bloober Team, which you’d think would indicate the two companies have a close, trusting relationship! Unfortunately, that… doesn’t seem to be the case. Bloober Team has made a number of pointed comments about Konami’s promotion of their Silent Hill 2 remake (or lack thereof) and now they’ve made their sharpest comments yet, outright criticizing the trailer shown during Sony’s most recent State of Play.

Though we finally got another look at Bloober Team’s remake of Silent Hill 2 at Sony’s State of Play presentation a couple of weeks ago, we still don’t know when the game will be coming out. PlayStation seemed to confirm the survival horror remake for a 2024 release earlier this year, but with Konami still not having officially given the game a launch window, questions still remain about when the publisher plans to release it.

Fans of the Silent Hill franchise had to endure years of waiting for the franchise to get picked back up. Fortunately, the wait has ended, and Konami has several projects. We even released a couple into the marketplace, such as Silent Hill The Short Message. But beyond that, there is one major release still in the works that fans are anticipating. I’m referring to Silent Hill 2, a remake of the game that is easily the biggest release for the entire series. But its last showcasing didn’t offer a release date, disappointing fans. 

Following rumors from Giant Bomb’s Jeff Grubb about the next State of Play this month, insider NateTheHate2 has revealed that it’s likely happening on January 31st/February 1st.

Silent Hill 4: The Room may not be as outdated as the previous entries in the series, but having been released almost 20 years ago, it would definitely do with a visual overhaul.

After years of rumours and much speculation, Konami confirmed to the world that a remake of the much beloved Silent Hill 2 was in the works.

In a look ahead at all the games planned for the PS5 in the coming year, Sony has confirmed that both Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater and Silent Hill 2 remake are set to release in 2024.

Did we put the Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater and Silent Hill 2 remakes on that list of our most anticipated games of 2024? The article is so voluminous I’m not sure I have the energy to check. I get halfway down the page and feel like I need to pitch camp below one of the paragraph breaks, like a mountaineer sleeping beneath a crag in one of those dangling tents. Assuming we didn’t, both have been slated for 2024 release by the PlayStation blog.

A lot of people have been quite keen to know when they can get their hands on the remake of Silent Hill 2. So much so that developer Bloober Team urged for a bit more patience, and we still have no idea when it’s releasing. But we’re getting closer.

In a look ahead at all the games planned for the PS5 in the coming year, Sony has confirmed that both Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater and Silent Hill 2 remake are set to release in 2024.

It looks like both Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater and Silent Hill 2 Remake could be released this year.

When Konami and Bloober Team’s remake of Silent Hill 2 will actually launch is a question we’ve been asking since the game was first revealed back in late 2022, and those questions have only grown louder in the absence of any updates on the game since its unveiling. It seems, however, that this might finally be the year where the remake releases.

Konami’s remakes of Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater and Silent Hill 2 are coming to PlayStation 5 this year, according to a new hype reel released by Sony Interactive Entertainment on Thursday. Neither game had a confirmed release window from publisher Konami, but it appears both projects are now confirmed to arrive in 2024.

The Silent Hill 2 remake is likely content complete and in its polishing phase, as developer Bloober Team is shifting its focus on other projects.

It's almost the end of 2023, which means developers across Japan with upcoming games are releasing end-of-year statements to provide updates on their myriad of projects. Konami is no exception, a publisher which is currently working on a bunch of Silent Hill titles, including the highly-anticipated remake of Silent Hill 2.

The folks over at Bloober Team are throwing together a new title, but this time, the franchise is through one of the IPs by Skybound Entertainment. It’s been unveiled that the development studio has partnered up with Skybound Entertainment for this next big game release. However, that’s about all we know right now about the game. With Bloober Team known for delivering horror gameplay experiences, it would be hard to see the studio partnered up with an IP not centered around a horror storyline. 

Bloober Team — the Polish game development studio best known for its work on horror games like Layers of Fear, The Medium, and even the upcoming Silent Hill 2 remake, has confirmed that it has another new project in the works. 

The Medium and Layers of Fear developer Bloober Team has announced a license and publishing agreement with Skybound Entertainment. It will develop a new title, codenamed R based on Skybound’s IP, with plans to launch in 2025.

Bloober Team, the studio behind Silent Hill 2 Remake and The Medium, has announced today it has signed a deal with Skybound Entertainment, the company founded by Robert Kirkman and David Alpert.

Bloober Team, developers of Layers of Fear, The Medium and the upcoming Silent Hill 2 remake, have added another notable name to their plans for the next few years. The horror-focused studio is working with the creators of zombie comic book-turned-TV show The Walking Dead on a new video game adaptation.

Layers of Fear and The Medium developer Bloober Team is set to develop a game based on an IP owned by Skybound Entertainment, after a licensing and publishing agreement was signed by the two companies.

Rumors and speculations have led many to believe that the release of the Silent Hill 2 remake is imminent. However, we’re all still dreaming, and developer Bloober Team is asking that people chill out for a little bit longer.

The Silent Hill 2 remake is «progressing smoothly», developer Bloober Team has assured fans.

Developer Bloober Team has released a statement regarding the development of the highly-anticipated Silent Hill 2 Remake.

Silent Hill fans have grown increasingly anxious about Bloober Team’s remake of Silent Hill 2, with its announcement over a year ago having been the last time it was shown off. The developer has, however, issued a statement to assuage any concerns about how the psychological horror title’s development might be going.

Bloober Team’s Silent Hill 2, a remake of Konami’s classic psychological horror title, is in development. However, there haven’t been many big announcements for it in recent months. Its Steam page has seen updates, and Konami recently clarified that the leaked “special origin story” for Pyramid Head is “incorrect,” but nothing on a release date.

Bloober Team, the developer behind the, has recently given an update on the status of the game. They also addressed fans’ criticism for lack of communications.

Silent Hill fans have waited for what felt like an eternity for Konami to return the franchise. When Hideo Kojima unveiled that he would revive the IP with Silent Hills, things looked up. However, abruptly, the famed developer parted ways with Konami, and thus, the game project was canceled. Since then, it has been back in waiting, but fortunately, last year, we finally got the grand revival announcement. Konami was going to bring back Silent Hill in a big way with several game projects and even a new movie installment. One of those game projects in the works was a remake of Silent Hill 2. 

For almost two decades, the franchise has not had the best of luck with critical or commercial reception — for good reason, the last outstanding game released under the banner was arguably back in 2004. Although this may change with three upcoming games and a movie, the latest release,, as well as a steady stream of disheartening rumors has made it a terrible time to be a fan.

With Konami and Bloober Team having been dead silent about the Silent Hill 2 remake since its announcement in October last year, fans have had to go looking for alternative sources of information on the game. Some of that seemed to emerge in a recent Best Buy pre-order listing for the highly anticipated survival horror remake, which claimed that the game would include a new playable origin story for the iconic monster known as Pyramid Head.

Fresh details about a previously leaked but unannounced Silent Hill game have emerged via the Australian Classification Board (ACB).

Update 7/11/2023: Konami has said Best Buy "had the incorrect information" regarding Silent Hill 2 Remake's Pyramid Head origin story.

A Best Buy product page for Silent Hill 2 Remake has sparked fan fears of a Pyramid Head origin story.

Updates on Bloober Team’s remake of Silent Hill 2 have completely dried up since its announcement a little over a year ago, though it seems some new details about new content that will be included in the game have managed to find their way into the limelight nonetheless.

Preorders for Bloober Team’s have been going up on several prominent online stores, suggesting there is imminent news on the game’s release date.

Konami currently has three Silent Hill games in production that we know of in an official capacity, with Silent Hill f, Silent Hill: Townfall, and a remake of Silent Hill 2, though interestingly enough, it seems the latter might not be the only remake in the series that’s in development.

Konami has potentially suggested that more than one Silent Hill remake is in development.

Psychedelic horror Layers of Fear — the 2023 remake as opposed to the 2016 original — is getting a free new story chapter on 24th October to mark developer Bloober Team's 15th anniversary.

Layers of Fear developer Bloober Team recently released a live-action short film in collaboration with artist Natalia Szroeder, seemingly focused on The Pianist. It’s well done, but for those seeking gameplay content, a new free chapter is coming to all owners on October 24th to coincide with the studio’s birthday.

Bloober Team was previously teasing more content for its latest Layers of Fear, and that tease continues with a new live-action film that sheds some more light on what is seemingly The Pianist’s childhood. The video was recently published on PlayStation’s official YouTube channel, and you can check that out down below.

“Where the hell is the Silent Hill 2 remake?” is a question many of us have asked in recent months, with updates on the survival horror title having dried up entirely since its announcement a year ago. It seems, however, that Konami and developer Bloober Team may be planning another look at the game in the near future.

Bloober Team released Layers of Fear earlier this year, serving as a remake of Layers of Fear 1 and 2 (along with the Inheritance DLC) while tying it with a new protagonist, The Writer. It also featured new DLC focused on The Painter’s wife, who could be the subject of more Layers of Fear content.

We could be hearing more about the upcoming Silent Hill 2 remake from Konami anytime now, as a new Steam backend update is one of many puzzle pieces that may just complete a picture that gives us more details about the remake of one of the horror genre’s best games.
