- Silent Hill 2 Remake has returned without any wins at The Game Awards 2024.
- The title was nominated in categories related to audio, game design, and voice acting performance.
- Fans believe the title deserved to win in at least one or two of these categories.
Silent Hill 2 Remake secured multiple nominations at The Game Awards 2024. After two long weeks, the results are finally in, and Astro Bot has taken home the ultimate prize.
While various games have won in the other categories, Silent Hill 2 is not one of them. Unfortunately, Konami’s critically acclaimed remake from 2023 failed to take home a single award at this event.
Why it matters: Despite initial skepticism, fans were quite happy with Silent Hill 2 Remake. The industry was also quick to praise the game’s many strengths, making this outcome surprising, to say the least.
For context, Silent Hill 2 Remake was nominated in a total of five categories:
- Best Narrative
- Best Action/Adventure Game
- Best Score/Music
- Best Audio Design
- Best Performance
Games like Metaphor: ReFantazio and Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth took home the awards for Best Narrative and Score/Music, respectively. On the other hand, Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 was awarded for Best Audio Design and Performance.
According to fans, the remake had a strong chance of winning the last two categories. Some have been visibly upset by the results, but others are happy that the game was nominated to begin with.
Interestingly, another major AAA release went through a similar scenario last year. PlayStation’s Spider-Man 2 was nominated for a total of seven awards but failed to win a single one in 2023.
Konami may be disappointed with the results, but the studio can always try next year. Its next major remake, Metal Gear Solid 3, is set to arrive in 2025 and should end up being nominated for multiple awards if the recent previews are anything to go by.
Whether it ends up winning any awards, however, is anybody’s guess for now. What are your thoughts on Silent Hill 2 Remake’s performance at The Game Awards 2024? Let us know in the comments, and follow this link to the Tech4Gamers Forums for further discussions.
