While it is true that Bloober Team seems to have become “the ones who are doing Silent Hill 2 remake”, that is not why they have left their own brands aside. Layers of Fear is coming down, going on sale this summer, and the company is preparing to scare us more than once. A few weeks after the release, we finally know the requirements for PC, which doesn’t scare us, in addition to the release date of its demo.
Before seeing the requirements, it is worth noting something more than interesting, and it is the technical section of this title. Far from commenting on great feats such as path tracing, its use of Unreal Engine 5 brings us Temporary Super Resolution (which Bloober wants you to use), lumen to improve lighting HDRand Niagaraa new way to create visual effects.
Below you have the Lays of Fear requirements on PCand, as you can see, they all ask you to have Epic Games’ TSR enabled in Balanced Mode to improve game performance, which would be like recommending DLSS right off the bat.

PC players will receive an exclusive demo next Monday that you can try via Steam. with everything and that, the title has no date yet concrete beyond leaving next month, something that should change soon.
How is the development of Silent Hill 2 Remake going?
From Bloober they are aware that they have a great weight on their backs when it comes to remaking one of the most emblematic horror video games in all of history. For this reason, they prefer to take their development quite secretlyalthough they have been pronounced to assure us of one thing: they will be faithful to the original, its context and the implications it has at the story level.
