Even though the console wars seem to be progressing with a major victory for PlayStation 5 in terms of sales, it’s thought that Microsoft’s Xbox side has at least bridged the gap economically with its Game Pass subscription model. However, with its latest move, Sony PlayStation might disappoint Xbox fans… Here are the details!
Silent Hill 2 won’t be on Xbox for a full year!
The highly anticipated Silent Hill 2 remake by Konami is set to release this October for PlayStation 5 and PC. But there’s bad news for Xbox fans: the game won’t be available on other platforms until at least October 8, 2025.
This information was shared at the end of the recently released “Immersion” trailer. The trailer explicitly states that the game won’t be released on other consoles before the mentioned date. This is believed to be the result of an agreement between Sony and Konami.
While platform-exclusive deals are common in the gaming industry, this decision has drawn some criticism from players. Many believe that making the game accessible to a wider audience would benefit both developers and gamers.
Fans of the Silent Hill series are eagerly awaiting this remake, but we can say that some players might feel disappointed due to these platform restrictions. Nonetheless, the revival of this iconic horror game using modern technology is an exciting development for veteran gamers.
Such exclusive deals in the gaming industry increase competition, but they also run the risk of dividing the player community. In the future, many players hope for more cross-platform collaboration and for games to be accessible to broader audiences at the same time.
