But don't mark your calendars just yetNo doubt, plenty of you horror fans have been anticipating Bloober Team's upcoming remake of Silent Hill 2 (https://www.destructoid.com/silent-hill-2-remake-bloober-team-konami-ps5-pc-reveal/). Some of you will be excited, while some of you may be holding back judgment. In any case, it's on a lot of people's lips, and the game may have its release date already.
As spotted by Twitter user ResiEvilCentral, Australian website Gaming Gorilla (https://gorillagaming.com.au/products/silent-hill-2-remake-ps5) has made Silent Hill 2 available for pre-order, at a cost of $89 AUS (about $60 US). However, the most interesting part about this listing is that it says the "expected release date" for the remake down as September 29, 2023.
Now, given that neither Capcom nor the developer has said when it's likely to launch, where Gaming Gorilla got this information is definitely interesting. Last we heard, Bloober Team denied SH2 was ready for release (https://www.destructoid.com/bloober-team-responds-rumors-silent-hill-2-remake/). The fact that both Steam (https://store.steampowered.com/app/2124490/SILENT_HILL_2/) and the PlayStation Store (https://www.playstation.com/en-us/games/silent-hill-2/) also do not list a release date means this could well have been in error.

Either that or someone somewhere has access to information the rest of aren't privy to. As of this moment, there is no official release date for the game, so it's entirely likely that this is just a rumor or someone has made a mistake. At the time of writing, the "leaked" release date is still on the retailer's website. However, it's best not to get your hopes up until the studio/publisher either confirm or deny these latest developments.
Silent Hill enjoys a pretty solid legacy (https://www.destructoid.com/best-silent-hill-games-ranked/), though it's been lying dormant for too long. The second installment, released in 2001, has gone down as one of the most important survival horror games of all time. Given this, it's not surprising that so many are looking forward to the remake. Whether Bloober Team can pull it off remains to be seen at this stage.
