According to a reliable insider, Bloober Team is preparing to reveal more information about upcoming DLC for the Silent Hill 2 remake. While there is no official information to date regarding a DLC for the Silent Hill 2 remake, it would follow the pattern set by the original 2001 game.

Developed by Bloober Team, the Silent Hill 2 remake revisits one of the most iconic psychological horror games in modern gaming history.

Silent Hill 2 Remake: Predicting Which Game Should Be Remade Next

After Bloober Team surprised with its Silent Hill 2 remake, the biggest question that remains is which chapter gets reworked next.

According to a Twitter post by insider AestheticGamer, there is a “very high chance” that Bloober Team will soon reveal DLC for the Silent Hill 2 remake. According to the insider, Bloober Team was working on this DLC even before the release of the game last year, and the studio is aiming to release this additional content for the Silent Hill 2 remake before the end of 2025. Though no official word has been shared by Konami or Bloober Team, AestheticGamer has a history of accurate information. Recently, they teased that Resident Evil 9 could be announced during Summer Game Fest, which could mean that fans of horror games will have plenty of new content to discover in the upcoming months.

DLC for Silent Hill 2 Remake Is Reportedly on the Way

This Silent Hill 2 remake DLC is rumored to be a revamped version of Born From a Wish, a side-story scenario in the special editions and re-release of the original 2001 game. Silent Hill 2’s Born From a Wish bonus scenario follows the story of Maria shortly before she meets James and joins him on his quest to find the truth about what happened to his wife. Since Maria plays a crucial role in Silent Hill 2, this DLC would let players know more about her while taking them back to the creepy setting of Silent Hill.

While fans keep an eye out for an announcement regarding this DLC, Bloober Team recently confirmed that it will improve the PS5 Pro version of Silent Hill 2. Players experienced frame pacing problems and resolution inconsistencies on PS5 Pro, with some claiming that the Silent Hill 2 remake runs better on the default PS5 than on its Pro version. Bloober Team acknowledged these issues and confirmed that a patch will come out soon to improve the overall gameplay experience on the PS5 Pro.
