Silent Hill 2 Remake May Be Coming To Xbox Series X|S Soon

Before Bloober Team’s Silent Hill 2 remake was released last October, there was a report that the game would be a timed exclusive for PlayStation 5 for at least a year. Now, the year is up and an updated listing by the Entertainment Software Rating Board appears to indicate that a leap to Xbox Series X|S is immanent.

The ESRB has slightly modified its Silent Hill 2 page (via Insider Gaming) to state that it’s certified for the “Xbox Series” consoles. The rating itself hasn’t changed, and it’s still M for Mature. However, Microsoft and Konami have yet to formally announce the port or set a date for it. We can’t even say for certain if Silent Hill 2 will get a physical release on Xbox, or if it will be digital only.

For now, there are no signs on the ESRB page that Silent Hill 2 will be coming to Switch 2 any time soon. But it’s not out of the realm of possibility for the future.

Following Bloober Team’s success with the Silent Hill 2 remake, Konami announced that the studio is now working on a remake of the original Silent Hill. That project doesn’t currently have a release window.

The most recent game in the series, Silent Hill f, was released last month to largely positive reviews. Konami announced that title alongside Silent Hill 2’s remake, and Silent Hill: Townfall during the same livestream in 2022. Series producer Motoi Okamoto has said that the team revealed all three projects at once because, “We wanted people to feel how serious we were about reviving the series.”

Outside of the games, a new live-action film, Return to Silent Hill, will be released on January 23, 2026. The movie will be an adaptation of Silent Hill 2, and sees the return of the original film’s director, Christoph Gans.
