How Long Is Silent Hill 2 Remake? - Playthrough Times For All Play Styles
Like the 2001 original, the Silent Hill 2 remake is a dense game with lots to find within it if you're willing to scour its foggy and dark corners. With a greater emphasis on combat and a few areas that feel larger and more involved, and with new puzzles that often require multiple steps to complete, though, it's going to be a while before you can escape that town. If you're wondering just how long it'll take, that depends greatly on how completionist you intend to be and whether you want to leap into Silent Hill 2 Remake's depths to find its many endings--eight in all--and other secrets.
Here's everything you need to know about Silent Hill 2's playtime and what you can expect to uncover if you're willing to spend more time within the nightmare. Naturally, beware of some light story spoilers in this article.
How long to beat Silent Hill 2
Your playtime on Silent Hill 2 will vary greatly based on how much time you spend exploring the town, searching out-of-the-way places, and gathering extra materials. This is especially true at key points like the early game, when you'll have access to a lot of the town and can check a number of spots that aren't part of the essential path forward. Among the members of GameSpot's team who played Silent Hill 2 Remake ahead of launch, we found the game to last between 17 and 19 hours on an initial playthrough, when we were pretty diligent about searching for secrets. If you're less worried about searching for secrets and extra ammo, you can probably expect Silent Hill 2 Remake to last you 15-16 hours on your first run.
