In just about a month, players will finally get their hands on Bloober Team’s interpretation of the beloved survival horror game, Silent Hill 2. As the release date approaches, more information about the game has surfaced, including details about its length and the time it will take to earn the coveted Silent Hill 2 remake platinum trophy.
Creative Director and Lead Designer Mateusz Lenart recently revealed that players can expect to spend more than 20 hours exploring everything the game has to offer in order to earn the platinum trophy. This estimate does not even include a new game plus playthrough or seeing all possible endings. Lenart emphasized the importance of thorough exploration, stating that players who enjoy searching for hidden secrets will definitely need more than 20 hours to fully experience the game.
Earning a platinum trophy in a game typically requires completing all aspects of the game, including any multiple endings it may have. In the case of the Silent Hill 2 remake, it is likely that players will need to achieve each ending to unlock the platinum trophy. Based on Lenart’s comments, it is safe to assume that obtaining the Silent Hill 2 remake platinum trophy will be a time-consuming task, taking over 20 hours to complete.
For comparison, the original Silent Hill 2 HD platinum trophy required roughly 30 hours and six playthroughs to earn. This included trophies for each ending and difficulty-specific challenges. Lenart also mentioned that players can expect their first playthrough of the Silent Hill 2 remake to take around 16 to 18 hours, a significant increase from the original game’s completion time of approximately eight hours.
With its release date set for October 8, 2024, on the PS5, fans of the Silent Hill series can look forward to immersing themselves in Bloober Team’s reimagining of this iconic horror game. The promise of a lengthy and immersive gameplay experience, along with the challenge of earning the platinum trophy, adds to the anticipation surrounding the Silent Hill 2 remake. As players prepare to step into the eerie world of Silent Hill once again, they can expect a thrilling and time-consuming journey that will test their skills and determination.
