Silent Hill 2 remake players have observed subtle changes to Maria’s design in Bloober Team's updated version, addressing previous fan concerns about her proportions. Specifically, the adjustments appear to reduce the size of her head, aligning better with her body and perhaps altering her bust slightly. This change was not highlighted in official patch notes but has been noticeable to players comparing the current version with the initial release.
The Silent Hill 2 remake has generally been well-received, with Konami and Bloober Team enhancing visuals, optimizing performance, and fixing progression-blocking bugs since launch. Alongside Maria’s adjustments, the game has also addressed lighting issues and character appearance complaints, such as with Angela and James. The tweaks to these iconic characters’ looks have satisfied many players who felt that certain visual details were initially off from the original’s dark tone and design.
Fans continue to speculate on future updates for Silent Hill 2, with some hoping for the addition of the “Born From a Wish” scenario as DLC. Many are also optimistic about Bloober Team’s potential to create further Silent Hill remakes, especially with the insights gained from updating this survival horror classic for modern consoles. The collaboration between Bloober and Konami holds promise for an exciting future for the Silent Hill franchise.
