Silent Hill 2 is a survival horror game developed by Bloober Team and published by Konami Digital Entertainment in 2024. It is a retelling of the 2001 video game of the same name, reinterpreted with a new script, new story threads and alternate endings, and reworked puzzles and gameplay.

In this playthrough we cover:

Road to Silent Hill:

James Sunderland arrives on the fog-choked Wiltse Road after receiving a mysterious letter from his long-dead wife, Mary, claiming she’s waiting for him in Silent Hill — driving straight into an oppressive, eerie atmosphere that sets the tone for the entire journey. As he treks down a forested path into fog and cemetery grounds, James picks up a map of the town and encounters unsettling signs of the town’s rot before a graveyard cutscene that foreshadows the horror to come. Pushing past a locked ranch gate by finding the Auto Parts key, he finally reaches the outskirts of South Vale, following a bloody trail that introduces his first combat with the Lying Figures and earning essential items like a radio and wooden plank to survive. This opening chapter blends tense exploration with the first real taste of Silent Hill’s monster encounters, immediately pulling players into James’s psychological descent.

East South Vale:

James enters the fog-enshrouded streets of Eastern South Vale, using the map he found to navigate tight alleyways and deserted roads while piecing together clues toward his next objective: Wood Side Apartments. Along the way, he explores rundown buildings, solves environmental hurdles like entering through broken windows, and follows unsettling blood trails that lead deeper into the eerily silent town, punctuated by his first intense combat against a Lying Figure. Key interactions here — collecting radios, finding crucial keys, and following memos — help flesh out the narrative, unraveling more about James’s motivations and the eerie absence of life in Silent Hill. This chapter mixes environmental storytelling with survival-horror pacing, setting up the dread that will only deepen as the town’s mysteries unfold.
Silent Hill Memories

Wood Side Apartments (Part 1):

James finally reaches the decrepit Wood Side Apartments, a claustrophobic, multi-room complex where tension peaks and answers begin to twist into deeper mysteries. Inside, he scours dark corridors and cramped rooms solving classic Silent Hill puzzles — including gathering coins for the reception desk — while dodging and fighting grotesque creatures stalking every corner. It’s also here that James has his first close encounters with other troubled souls: Eddie Dombrowski, an unstable man whose room of corpses hints at his unraveling psyche.
