Silent Hill 2 Remake Surpasses the Original

Bloober Team’s remake of Silent Hill 2 has officially crossed the million mark in sales just three days after its release, leveraging both PS5 and Steam platforms. For context, the original release back in 2001 took an entire month to reach this milestone.

A Comparison of Sales

As of now, Bloober Team's remake is selling at a much faster pace than the original title, which was the best-selling entry in the series for years. The entire franchise had sold around 6.9 million units by the end of 2009 and reached 9 million by 2015. With such promising sales figures, it’s only a matter of time before the remake claims that title.

A Revival Worth Noticing

While Konami’s past handling of this iconic horror series left fans disappointed, Bloober Team’s stunning remake indicates a potential turnaround. With the upcoming Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater also in the pipeline, there is hope for a revitalized Konami. The market clearly craves high-quality horror experiences, and Silent Hill 2 Remake is poised to deliver just that.
