There are less than two months to go until Bloober Team's highly-anticipated remake of Silent Hill 2 drops, and if you are trying to figure out how long it will take you to beat Silent Hill 2 Remake from beginning to end, the game's director finally has some answers for you. In a couple of replies posted on X/Twitter, Silent Hill 2 director Mateusz Lenart responded to two separate posts to explain how long it would take for someone to beat the game. According to Lenart, the first playthrough is expected to take players "around 16-18 hours" on average.
First playthrough is around 16-18 hours avarage :)— Mateusz Lenart (@Mateusz_Lenart_) August 19, 2024 If you are the completionist type or an avid trophy hunter itching to get the platinum in Silent Hill 2 Remake, Lenart notes that you will need to put in a few more hours. Explaining those that "like to spend [their] time searching for everything" that you can find in-game, then it would take you "more than" 20 hours to complete. However, Lenart added a caveat that he was not factoring in new game plus or any of the alternate endings when disclosing that number.
If you like to spent your time searching for everything that we put into the game and things we've hidden for you, it will take you more than 20h for sure ?! I'm not couting the new game plus and all endings of course. I'm curious how fast will you get all of them??????♀️..
