It's been more than a hot minute since we've had a Silent Hill game (https://www.destructoid.com/all-silent-hill-games-in-release-and-chronoligical-order/). Last year's announcement that the series was making a return caused joy (and a bit of relief) in many fans' hearts. As well as brand-new interactive series, we're also getting a remake of Silent Hill 2, and some updates on Steam suggest we may hear more about this project soon.
If you head over to SteamDB (https://steamdb.info/app/2124490/history/) ? a third-party website that chronicles all things related to the Steam client ? you can see that Silent Hill 2 has been quietly (dare I say...silently?) updated recently.

On October 6, Brazilian and Ukrainian subtitles were added, while Portuguese language support was removed, for whatever reason. Perhaps the most interesting thing to note, however, is the change ID above that says Steam achievements have now been added.
What does this mean in terms of a release date?
Naturally, many people (myself included) may conclude that news about the remake is imminent. Obviously, there's nothing officially saying this, but these recent updates suggest we might hear something soon.
We still have no idea when Silent Hill 2 will release, though a website did leak a potential date (https://www.destructoid.com/silent-hill-2-launch-date-rumor-gorillagaming/) a few months back. Of course, the listed date was "September 29, 2023," which obviously did not pan out. Still, it's interesting to see activity on the Steam page only a week and a half after that date.

On top of that, it was recently revealed that Silent Hill: Ascension would begin on October 31 (https://www.destructoid.com/silent-hill-ascension-to-premiere-on-halloween-according-to-listing/). Ascension is the interactive SH experience that viewers can influence in real-time. We know few details about this one, so we'll learn more when it launches on Halloween night.
Will this (and the upcoming other entries) be the almighty comeback for Silent Hill many of us are hoping for? Only time will tell.
