Silent Hill 2 Remake Developer Bloober Signs Deal for Another Game for Konami — Could It Be More Silent Hill?

Bloober Team, fresh off the success of their Silent Hill 2 remake, has announced a new partnership with Konami to develop a game based on one of Konami's intellectual properties. While neither company has revealed the title or franchise, Bloober's horror expertise and the remake's two million sales strongly suggest another Silent Hill entry is likely. Konami will retain publishing and rights ownership.

Bloober Team CEO Piotr Babieno's statement highlights the collaborative success of the Silent Hill 2 remake: The remake's critical acclaim (86/100 Metacritic, 88/100 OpenCritic, multiple Game of the Year awards) solidified the partnership, leading to this new agreement. Babieno emphasizes the shared knowledge and experience contributing to high-quality production, although specific details remain under wraps.

The Silent Hill 2 remake, released October 8th, 2024, for PlayStation 5 and PC (with Xbox Series X|S release yet to be announced), rapidly sold over one million copies within days of launch. While potentially the fastest-selling Silent Hill game, official confirmation from Konami is pending. IGN awarded the remake an 8/10, praising its ability to evoke the original's terrifying atmosphere.
