The Silent Hill 2 Remake has arrived, giving fans a new experience of this iconic horror game! But, for some Italian players, there was a shocking surprise right at the beginning that could completely ruin the plot!
A Major Translation Error
It seems that a Translation Error in the Italian version of the game completely spoiled the ending for those unlucky enough to play it first! A radio message that should've been hard to hear, was fully revealed via subtitles! For players who have never played it before, this meant that it ruined an essential twist to the narrative.
The Spoiler Revealed
This message plays a big part in the storyline! In fact, in this iconic moment, it's revealed who is behind the shocking deaths. This spoiler gave away something massive to anyone starting the game. Normally, the message that plays in the game via radio and then is also seen in subtitles is super muffled to avoid spoiling anything for gamers who have never played this title. The message should have remained mysterious but the Italian subtitles just laid out the answer - "Why did you kill me?" was visible!
This shows how frustrating a bug can be for fans who enjoy this series! What should've remained a secret is out there and some fans really had to figure out what was going on!
The Quick Fix
It didn't take very long! Luckily, it turns out there were a bunch of gamers who experienced the glitch and quickly informed Bloober Team, the game's developers, about the issue. An update (version 1.003.000) came out so quickly it made all those fans happy who still hoped to experience this plot twist for the first time. With the update in place the subtitles for this key moment was fully corrected.
Still A Great Game
Despite this issue there is no question. For the gamers out there that didn't get spoiled this was still a success! Silent Hill 2 Remake did exceptionally well overall, with positive feedback! Even the reviewers and gamers love the story! The whole storyline is designed to bring lots of mysteries that could take several playthroughs for gamers who wish to experience it all! For this horror-based Remake, its fanbase couldn't be happier and that was certainly the case here as it has remained highly-rated!
Even for anyone who wasn't completely enthralled there might still be good reason for you to jump in!
