Some followers suppose the backlash is because of builders altering the looks of Silent Hill 2’s main protagonist Maria to match the unique idea artwork, whereas others imagine some followers simply need the sport to fail.
Early in 2023, builders reassured followers that the Silent Hill 2 remake would solely make “protected adjustments” to the sport however after months of silence, the studio then requested followers for “persistence”. Earlier this yr, a divisive trailer showcased new, Resident Evil-inspired fight whereas Bloober claimed the video didn’t “replicate the spirit” of the remake and blamed writer Konami for the way it was being marketed.
