Gameplay Part 2

Investigating a letter from his late wife, Mary, James Sunderland returns to where they made so many memories - Silent Hill.

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:

Wood Side Apartments (Part 2):

After unlocking the reception desk with the three-coin puzzle, James delves deeper into Wood Side Apartments, navigating dark hallways and cramped rooms while uncovering disturbing clues about the building’s former residents. He encounters Angela Orosco, whose fragmented dialogue and knife hint at trauma mirroring James’s own buried guilt. The section culminates in James’s first true brush with terror when he witnesses Pyramid Head brutally attacking a monster behind barred walls, establishing the creature as a relentless embodiment of punishment and dread. James escapes the apartments shaken, carrying unanswered questions and the growing sense that Silent Hill is judging him.

Blue Creek Apartments:

James crosses into the Blue Creek Apartments, where the building’s layout becomes more hostile, enemies grow more aggressive, and puzzle-solving intensifies, forcing him into constant confrontation rather than cautious avoidance. As the fog outside gives way to darkness inside, the section emphasizes locked doors, ambush-heavy hallways, and a sense of escalating punishment tied directly to James’s guilt. The chapter culminates in James’s first direct battle with Pyramid Head, a brutal, inescapable fight that reinforces the idea that violence cannot resolve his inner torment. After surviving the encounter, James escapes the apartments shaken and wounded, pushing deeper into Silent Hill with the weight of judgment pressing down on him.

West South Vale (Part 1):

James arrives in West South Vale, where the fog-filled streets introduce him to Maria, on the pier in Rosewater Park, a woman who looks exactly like Mary but behaves strikingly different, immediately unsettling his sense of reality. As they explore the town together, passing locations like Jack’s Inn and the eerie streets near Rosewater Park, Maria’s flirtatious warmth clashes with James’s grief-ridden detachment. The chapter pauses at the Heaven’s Night-area motel, where James unlocks the office safe, uncovering key items that push the investigation forward while deepening the mystery surrounding Maria’s existence. Their uneasy partnership sets the stage for the emotional and psychological spiral to come.
