Silent Hill 2 Remake New Confirmed Feature

Silent Hill 2 Remake will include a unique throwback filter that changes the color grading in the game to more closely match the original PlayStation 2 title.

Retro Silent Hill 2 Remake Feature

Silent Hill 2 Remake is just around the corner and fans were waiting for this for a very long time. While there has been some skepticism surrounding Bloober Team’s track record, early previews have impressed the community, and many have expressed excitement about Konami seemingly getting in touch with the series’ roots once again.

The official Silent Hill Twitter account revealed the feature to fans with a short video showing protagonist James Sunderland walking through the streets with the filter active. As he explores Silent Hill, fans can get a look at the filter in action, as it changes the color palette in the game to a greyish-brown hue, closely matching the look of the original Silent Hill for the PS1.

Bloober Team has made a lot of promises to fans of the iconic horror series, as many worried that Silent Hill 2 would miss out on much of what made the original game so beloved. Not only will the upcoming title still have multiple endings, but the original Silent Hill 2 composer Akira Yamaoka is also remaking many fan favorite tracks from the original game.

Silent Hill is not the only franchise Konami is bringing back into the limelight in the near future, as it is also gearing up for the launch of the highly anticipated Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater. In fact, much like Silent Hill 2’s new retro filter, Metal Gear Solid Delta will also feature “legacy” options to match the original PS2 game, showing Konami’s commitment to embracing the nostalgia fans have for these titles.
