Konami has released a new patch for the Silent Hill 2 remake, one that should supposedly fix the glaring issues the game has on PS5 Pro.

Despite a strong launch and stellar reviews, Silent Hill 2 had some undeniable problems on Sony’s newest upgraded systems – largely visual hitches and pop-in. Digital Foundry reported that the PS5 Pro improved framerates in both quality and performance modes but had significant image stability issues absent in the standard PS5, along with problems in PSSR upscaling.
