Konami has released patch 1.08 for the Silent Hill 2 remake on PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 5 Pro, a dedicated graphics fix that targets the visual problems that have troubled the game — the PS5 Pro version in particular — since shortly after launch.
The update directly addresses the Performance Mode issues introduced by the previous patch, 1.07, which Konami had already acknowledged and said developer Bloober Team was working to fix.
Graphics
The patch fixes numerous rendering issues involving lighting, shadows and reflections across multiple locations, and improves display consistency in both Performance and Quality modes. It also corrects flickering on water surfaces, lighting effects, reflections, particles and cutscenes, and reduces the visual artifacts that could appear while moving.
Gameplay
The update fixes an issue where some items could not be obtained.
Cutscenes
Konami has made several corrections to improve cutscene quality.
Players can confirm the update is installed by checking that the version number in the bottom right of the game's top screen reads v.1.0.8. The Silent Hill 2 remake is available now on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC via Steam.
