Sublime PS5, PC Remake Silent Hill 2 Tops One Million Sales

Great! Perfect incentive to invest in new additions to the franchise.

@liamcroft

You've missed out a preposition in the subheader 👍

... edit: that makes sense now 😊

Ah yes “shipped” for physical copies. So meaningless then.

Yes I know that retailers are the customer not us, but don’t mix non-public sales data with direct to consumer sales

@Shepherd_Tallon That would depend if they had budgeted for such sales.

@LowDefAl not meaningless to the publisher. Games shipped are games sold as far as they're concerned. Sold through to customers is a different metric, so it's blurring the lines when the article includes digital sales with shipped.

@riceNpea Internally sure, but “hey look our game is popular” when it’s just retailer’s ordering a basic level of stock for any game is another.

@LowDefAl I'd say by default it is 'popular' if retailers are requesting that much stock. What isn't helpful is adding digital sales to the tally. Thats probably because they don't have access to sold-to-customer figures, as you'd expect. But I appreciate the point you're making.

Doesnt change the fact im still too scared to play it lol

Congratulations Bloober Team!
Such an awesome remake! 👏🏼

Hopefully there’ll be many more too

Did they really patch in that note in the game?

I can't get into it. I really like the original, but the remake just isn't doing it for me. And I think it's mainly due to Unreal Engine 5, it's just an ugly mess whenever you move or look anything reflective.

I got platinum for this last weekend and it truly deserves all the sales and praise it's getting at the moment, well played Bloober.

@Kidfunkadelic83 just run towards enemies and rush through the game . that’s how you play scary games , gotta destroy that suspension of disbelief and cheese the game 😂

i’m serious though

The game is sold out on physical in many, many stores too.

Amazon still didn't send me my copy, short of stocks, and I had preordered !

It's really great for this game and for this franchise.

Kudos to the Bloober Team !

In my country it seems that retailers are completely out of stock. There are some absurd prices like 100euros for the blu ray.

N.i.c.e. im happy that silent hill 2 remake did really good.bloober team deserves it.i knew it was gonna be a hit.i been saying it and it is a excellent game.word up son

It's a great game, first 70% is tense, scary and unknowing, the last stretch is mental, it doesn't really let up til the end great game, just some of the puzzle re works are a little.bit too drawen out for my liking but still great

Imagine if this was a Square game... "Yeah, the game underperformed"

Congrats to Konami and Bloober Team for reaching that milestone.

@LowDefAl Then I guess you'll be happy to hear physical copies sold out in loads of countries really fast and now there's long wait times for a physical copy while retailers are waiting for new stock.

@MrMagic That's indeed good news.

Unless of course they didn’t bother printing that many and are now paying the price. It’s difficult to say without knowing that figure.

Either way the game seems to be successful and that’s the real takeaway. Don’t take my semantics too seriously, it was a dig at the corporate wording, not the sentiment.

I never played the original and it’s not my sort of game really but I was intrigued by the footage I saw.

Great news. Now i wonder if Konami/Bloober gonna remake SH 1, 3, or 4...

Happy to see both Silent Hill 2 and Metaphor: ReFantazio selling well. Wild month for games on PS5/PC.
