The Silent Hill 2 Remake is bringing back a legendary figure from the world of horror games and he's terrifying! The legendary boss, Pyramid Head is not just some villain who shows up and you just beat. There's more to this legendary horror character that's waiting to be uncovered.
Pyramid Head and His Psychological Significance
In this newest Silent Hill 2 Remake, Pyramid Head isn't simply some scary figure! This powerful entity acts as the representation of James Sunderland's psychological torment, the dark aspects and guilt of his inner world. The appearance of Pyramid Head really adds something more, a really impressive villainous role.
What stands out in his role in this newest adaptation is just how brutal he appears. It looks like he was made with a rusty executioner's mask and brutalist, pyramid-shaped helmet to give that scary vibe. The whole thing makes him not only creepy but visually impactful, acting as this dark entity of James inner self and his guilt over the death of his wife. Armed with a giant sword, he follows James throughout the game!
How To Defeat Pyramid Head:
What seems impossible! This super scary Pyramid Head just seems to be too powerful to take on!

It’s about surviving and outsmarting the inner demons.
Avoiding Pyramid Head:
