Just a few days after its release, the Silent Hill 2 remake’s<\/a> Metacritic score is creeping up on the original’s. <\/strong>While the original title<\/a> from 2001 boasts a ‘generally favorable’ score of 89<\/strong>, the remake<\/a> is sitting at an 86<\/strong>, with over 80 critic reviews already in. <\/p>\n

Those neck and neck scores are the game’s “Metascore,” which is based only on critic reviews. At the time of writing, the Silent Hill 2 remake actually has a higher user<\/em> score than the original, with a 9.3 compared to the original’s 8.8.<\/p>\n

It’s definitely worth noting that the original game is decades old, while the remake just released a few days ago. As such, it’s very possible that these scores could change in the future as more players journey into Bloober Team’s modernized rendition of Silent Hill 2 and form their own opinions.<\/p>\n

But even though the exact scores are subject to change in the future, the Silent Hill 2 remake’s high rating suggests that fans enjoyed the game a lot more than many originally anticipated. Some fans doubted Bloober Team’s ability to successfully reimagine Silent Hill 2 for modern audiences, but the remake has earned itself highly positive scores on Steam, Metacritic, and OpenCritic.<\/p>\n

Bloober Team and Konami’s Silent Hill 2 remake is available on PS5 and Steam for PC now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
