- Silent Hill 2 Remake’s success has seen Konami stocks grow significantly this year.
- The Remake received praise from everyone after underwhelming trailers.
- Konami is heading into 2025 strongly with MGS3 Remake, which is very close to launch.
Konami has had a great year, largely due to the release of Silent Hill 2 Remake. The company has seen massive growth, and a report claims that its stocks skyrocketed by almost 96% in 2024.
When the first Silent Hill 2 Remake trailer dropped, many people were skeptical. However, the Bloober Team managed to turn things around, delivering an excellent experience.
Why it matters: With a massive increase in its stocks, Konami is heading into 2025 strongly, with Metal Gear Solid 3 Remake reportedly closer than ever to its release.
According to Dr. Serkan Toto from Kantan Games, Konami saw a growth of 95.97% in 2024. Other Japanese studios also had some solid stats, and they saw their stock values increase quite a bit this year.
Konami has been somewhat lackluster in the last few years. When Silent Hill 2’s development was given to the Bloober Team instead of its in-house team, most people assumed this would not favor the studio.
While the studio didn’t have too many releases this year either, Silent Hill 2 has taken it over. Rumors suggest that the studio is also looking to remake the original Silent Hill and Silent Hill 3.
Konami also released Silent Hill: The Short Message for PS5, a free-to-play game aiming to capture new audiences. In addition, the company also launched Contra: Operation Galuga and Castlevania Dominus Collection, but Silent Hill 2 Remake was the flagship release.
Nonetheless, it will be interesting to see what Konami does from here. With Metal Gear Solid 3 Remake on the horizon, fans hope the studio has done an equally good job with the title as the Bloober Team did with Silent Hill 2.
