Silent Hill 2 Remake Sparks Controversy in Wikipedia Review

Author:Kristen Update:Jan 11,2025

Silent Hill 2 Remake Wikipedia Page Vandalized by Disgruntled Fans

Silent Hill 2 Remake's Wikipedia entry was recently targeted by fans who altered the game's review scores after its early access launch.

Wikipedia Page Targeted by False Reviews Amidst "Anti-Woke" Speculation

Following numerous instances of inaccurate review scores being posted on the Silent Hill 2 Remake Wikipedia page, the page was temporarily locked to prevent further edits. A group of dissatisfied fans, seemingly unhappy with Bloober Team's remake, manipulated the page to display lower, fabricated review scores. The reasons behind this coordinated effort remain unclear, although speculation points to an "anti-woke" agenda. The Wikipedia page has since been corrected and protected.

The Silent Hill 2 Remake, released in early access, garnered largely positive critical reception. For instance, Game8 awarded the game a 92/100 rating, praising its emotional impact on players. The full game launches October 8th.
