Now, the Silent Hill 2 remake has been tagged as “PS5 Pro Enhanced” on the PS Store, indicating that Bloober Team and Konami have decided to improve the game for the launch of Sony’s new console model. Unfortunately, there are currently no details on how exactly the enhanced version will work. The current version of Silent Hill 2 for PS5 has both Performance Mode and Quality Mode, allowing gamers to run the horror title at 1440p with 30 FPS, or 1080p with 60 FPS, respectively. Considering this, it’s likely that the PS5 Pro Update will allow for greater resolutions and frame rates simultaneously. It’s also likely that Bloober Team will unveil a new Silent Hill 2 update soon to implement these changes.

What might be surprising about the PS5 Pro Enhanced version of Silent Hill 2 is that it was not properly announced before. Recently, Sony released a list of games confirmed to get PS5 upgrades. While the list included popular titles such as Alan Wake 2, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, Dragon’s Dogma 2, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, Horizon Forbidden West, and others, it did not include the remake of Konami’s classic horror game.


The PS5 Pro will be released on November 7, and it has been a very controversial topic since its original announcement. The console is being released with a hefty price tag of $700 in the United States, and it may be even more expensive in other countries. Despite the new model offering a 45% faster GPU and advanced ray tracing, the high price prompted a discussion about whether the console was worth it, as a normal PS5 would still run the same games and be considerably less expensive. In any case, many popular titles will see notable improvements on the new piece of hardware.
