Speaking to Rock Paper Shotgun, Bloober Creative Director Mateusz Lenart and Lead Producer Maciej Głomb confirmed that the studio was chosen to work on the Silent Hill 2 remake because of its “DNA” and the titles it has previously made. Also, as already mentioned, it seems that Konami has specific plans for the series, even if they have not been revealed what they are.
“Yes, Silent Hill 2 was the best choice for us at Bloober Team, given our DNA and the games we’ve made before. On the other hand, it’s not like we made this decision, right? The choice is tied to Konami’s plans.”
Bloober Team’s previous works include Layers of Fear, The Medium, Observer, and Blair Witch, all psychological horror games that, if you look closely, owe something to the Silent Hill series. If you want to know more about the Silent Hill 2 remake, we invite you to read our review.
