Another day, another PSA: this time, it appears some stores have broken Silent Hill 2 Remake’s street date, and retail copies of the seminal horror game are out in the wild.
Whilst some fans were already trying to avoid the clips and spoilers leaking out of officially-sanctioned hours-long streams, images purportedly taken of the physical release – featuring a disc with “There was a hole here. It’s gone now” emblazoned across it, and reversible cover art – are popping up on reddit, as well as other social media sites.
Some of these posts have been accompanied by screenshots allegedly taken from the Remake that are not from any of the streams we’ve seen so far, nor are they images formally released by Konami.
Whilst it may seem a bit redundant to warn you about spoilers of a 20+-year-old game, don’t forget that for many, this will be their first opportunity to play the horror for themselves.
Furthermore, Bloober Team recently teased that the Remake’s running time is double that of the original game, and the official streams we’ve seen so far demonstrate that there’s plenty of additional content and surprises… even for fans very familiar with the original game.
