‘Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater’ and the ‘Silent Hill 2’ Remake Confirmed for 2024 Releases [Trailer]
Sony and Konami are hitting the ground running for Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater and the Silent Hill 2. Sony has released a new trailer highlighting some of the titles coming to PlayStation this year, with both games shown, giving us the first release window for either game. Not only that, but on the Silent Hill 2 front, a new leak implies that the game’s development is nearing its conclusion.
The new trailer lists off 18 titles for release this year. Alongside both of Konami’s anticipated titles, the trailer also highlights The Last of Us Part II Remastered (January 19th), Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League (due out January 30th), Dragon’s Dogma 2 (March 22), and Supermassive and Behaviour Interactive’s The Casting of Frank Stone.
Meanwhile, noted leaker Dusk Golem is back with a new update for Silent Hill 2, citing a report from Bloober themselves stating that the team is moving their focus to their recently-announced project with Skybound Entertainment for the new year. In addition, the developer has secured funding for their work in Unreal 5 for the Polish Agency for Enterprise Development, meeting the conditions tied to them for successfully reaching their goals for project use in Unreal 5.
What that means for Silent Hill 2 is that the game is “basically feature complete and just in its polishing phase”. None of this has been confirmed by Bloober, however. According to Dusk Golem, most of the Bloober employees have been moved on to other projects, leaving a skeleton crew to focus on polish, bugs, and playtesting.
However, as Bloober Team cited last year, it’s entirely up to Konami to comment on any sort of update on the game’s eventual release.
Silent Hill 2 is currently in development for PC via Steam and the PlayStation 5, with a release on the Xbox Series at a later date.
Remember back in 2022 when developer Survios had announced that they were teaming up with 20th Century Games to develop a new Alien title? Well seeing as it’s Alien Day, Survios has announced their brand-new VR title, Alien: Rogue Incursion. Coming “Holiday 2024” to the PlayStation VR2, SteamVR, and Quest 3, Rogue Incursion will feature an original story that “fully surrounds players within the terrors of the Alien universe”.
Details on the game are light at the moment, but the official site describes the upcoming title as being “designed by Alien fans for Alien fans”, with Survios aiming to craft a “technically advanced, and frightfully immersive Alien virtual reality game.”
Seeing as Alien: Isolation never got official VR support when it was released, this is obviously a welcome announcement. In the meantime, if you’re keen to experience an Alien game in VR, you can always check out the fan-made mod for Alien: Isolation by Nibre_, which allows both the Steam and Epic Games Store version of Alien: Isolation to be played using the Oculus.
And speaking of Alien: Isolation, as you might expect, it’s got a hefty 80% discount going on at the moment on Steam until May 1. So if you still haven’t grabbed it after all these years, this is as good a time as any.
