Silent Hill 2 dev responds as PS5 remake earns positive reviews
At the time of this writing, Silent Hill 2 has earned an average rating of 87/100 on Metacritic (PS5 version), with at least 49 reviews accounted for. A day ago, we shared that Japanese publication Famitsu gave the game its first review score of 35/40, which is higher than what it awarded the original.
