A trusted leaker says Silent Hill 2 Remake is heading to PlayStation Plus Extra in October, with 21 October floated as the date. Sony hasn’t confirmed it yet, but multiple outlets are repeating the claim, which originates from billbil-kun on Dealabs — a name with a strong track record on PS Plus line-ups.
What’s being reported
Silent Hill 2 Remake is rumoured to join the PS Plus Extra (and Premium/Deluxe) Game Catalogue around 21 October 2025, roughly a year after launch — right in time for Halloween.
- Source is billbil-kun via Dealabs; repeated by Push Square, Wccftech, and Insider Gaming.
- The date cited is 21 October 2025.
- It lines up with PS Plus’ usual mid-month Game Catalogue drops.
PS Plus catalogue titles typically unlock in the early morning local time on the day they go live (around 4–5am UAE time), based on recent monthly updates.
Silent Hill 2 Remake arriving on PS Plus Extra would be a tidy October get for horror fans, and the timing — almost exactly a year after release — fits Sony’s pattern of adding big games post their first sales run. It could also coincide with other Konami updates around the brand, as some outlets speculate.
Silent Hill 2 Remake at a glance
Bloober Team rebuilt the 2001 classic for PS5 and PC with modern visuals, tweaked combat, and a faithful tone. Reviews were broadly positive.
- Platforms: PS5 (console), PC
- Original remake release: October 2024 (global)
- Reception: Strong — cited as one of last year’s standout horror releases.
If the leak is right, subscribers can download and play the full game while it remains in the catalogue. Expect it to appear in the PS Plus tab on PS5 on the morning it goes live in the UAE.
When could Sony confirm it?
Sony usually reveals the mid-month Game Catalogue between the 7th and 12th of the month. Watch the PlayStation Blog and PS social channels.
- Pattern: Monthly games (Essential) land early month; Game Catalogue (Extra/Premium) follows mid-month.
- This month’s context: October already has headline Essential titles, and the Silent Hill 2 Remake rumour would round out a very strong month.
What to do now
Add it to your wish-list and keep an eye on the PS Plus “Collections” row on PS5. If you plan to sub, Extra is the tier with the Game Catalogue.
What this could signal next
The one-year mark often triggers new platform or update news. Some outlets also speculate about a PS5 Pro patch and potential DLC windows. Treat as speculation until confirmed.
- Possible PS5 Pro patch/DLC chatter is doing the rounds, but nothing official from Sony/Konami at time of writing.
- Silent Hill brand activity continues (remake success; Bloober’s new projects), but unrelated to this PS Plus rumour.
