Are you ready to replay a horror classic?

According to Mateusz Lenart (the creative director), Silent Hill 2 Remake will take 16-20 hours to beat. He said players who love uncovering every secret and exploring everything the game offers would take over 20 hours to finish.

Of course, this estimate is only for those playing the game for the first time.

If you don't want to take the word of a developer for it, the popular site How Long To Beat, which works as an aggregation site similar to Metacritic but for a game's length, has some slightly different completion times.

Players are usually completing the main story in roughly eight hours, with those going for some side content clocking almost 10. If you're a completionist, it might take you 15 hours, far less time than Lenart's 20-hour estimate.

In any case, the original version released in 2001 wraps up at around eight hours of playtime. This means you're looking at nearly double the length this time.

The Silent Hill 2 Remake will feature multiple endings, including all the endings from the original. The original Silent Hill 2 has four main endings. Rumors suggest the remake will have eight non-linear endings (four more than the original).

It will be interesting to see if the extra endings are the only twists Bloober Team has brought to the most haunted town in Maine.

That is all you need to know regarding the time to beat the game. Silent Hill 2 Remake will be launched worldwide on October 8, 2024, for PS5 and Microsoft Windows.
