Key Takeaways
- Patch 1.06 for Silent Hill 2 Remake aims to fix graphical issues reported on PS5 Pro.
- However, some players say that they’re still finding issues after installing the patch.
- Full patch notes say that only “some” graphical issues have been addressed, so future updates may be needed.
A new patch has been rolled out for Silent Hill 2 Remake. While the patch is available on both PC and PS5, Bloober Team says that it should fix the graphical issues that players reported on PS5 Pro.
However, fans report the patch hasn’t fixed the problem entirely, and have shared footage of these issues still being found in the PS5 Pro version of the game. This is despite the fact that PS5 Pro-enhanced games are supposed to both look and perform better than they do on the original PS5, something which has not been the case with this and Star Wars: Outlaws.
Silent Hill 2 Players Are Still Reporting Issues On PS5 Pro
Patch 1.06 might not have been enough to fix Silent Hill 2’s graphical issues
Admittedly, the full patch notes only mention that “some graphics glitches” were fixed with this update. So, it’s very possible that Bloober Team is still working on the issue, and it will be fully addressed in another patch.
However, it’s bound to be a source of frustration for those who shelled out on a PS5 Pro, since Silent Hill 2 Remake is one of the platform’s biggest console exclusives of the year. There are other new releases that make the most of the technology, like Dragon Age: The Veilguard, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, and Stellar Blade, but this is a surprising title for issues to be found in.
