Bloober Insists It Didn’t Forget About Silent Hill 2 PS5 Pro Fixes

Summary

  • Bloober Team is working on a future update to fix PS5 Pro issues in Silent Hill 2.
  • No confirmed timetable is available for when the update will be released.
  • Base PS5 version is currently recommended due to graphical issues in PS5 Pro mode. Total character count: 122.

When the PS5 Pro console launched, Bloober Team released a Silent Hill 2 patch that applied enhanced features for Sony’s most powerful console on the market. Unfortunately, issues surfaced from that patch, and even a hotfix released soon after failed to address all the graphical problems.

Given it’s been months since we heard anything about it, most people might have assumed Bloober Team had forgotten about it, as the studio has a new horror game set for release later this year.

Bloober Team has confirmed to Eurogamer that this patch that should fix the PS5 Pro issues is still in development. According to Bloober, “We’re working with the publisher on a solution and will share more details as soon as we have them.”

Unfortunately, no timetable has been given for when we can expect this update, so it may be released as soon as next month or perhaps sometime in the next few months.

For now, the base PS5 version is the better one to play given it doesn’t have the same performance issues as the PS5 Pro. Over on the game’s subreddit, players have talked about it as well with one user pointing out that Bloober’s “fix” for the PS5 Pro issue was just to take PSSR (PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution) out of Performance mode. Quality mode, is still broken unless you’re inside buildings and structures. Otherwise, playing outside in the fog-filled streets is a “flickery mess.”

There’s no release date for it set, but it is confirmed to be releasing this year on the PS5, Xbox Series X|S and pC.
