The latest patch for Silent Hill 2 Remake is here, fixing a slurry of different technical issues fans faced. Among the issues fixed are PS5 Pro graphical glitches, audio issues in Toluca Prison, improved boss animations, and more.
Konami released the patch notes on its website for 1.06. We’re sure fans are appreciative of the patch, though, it’s also not the best that among the biggest is the graphical glitches on the PS5 Pro, which led to publisher Konami and developer Bloober Team getting blasted for, with neither party addressing it until this patch.

Silent Hill 2 debuted in early October to critical acclaim. Smash Jump’s Sam Flanagan said in his review: “The Silent Hill 2 remake is an absolute marvel. It’s ability to remain faithful to just about everything about the original whilst also feeling fresh and exciting is astounding. A few things do hold it back from being an amazing game, but what it lacks in some areas doesn’t distract from what the game truly is: an extremely good remake.”
