Silent Hill 2 Remake's Wikipedia page was recently targeted by fans who altered the game's review scores following its early access release.
Following numerous instances of misinformation regarding the Silent Hill 2 Remake's review scores on its Wikipedia page, the page was locked by Wikipedia administrators. The edits, seemingly made by disgruntled fans of the Bloober Team-developed remake, falsely lowered review scores from various publications. The motivations behind this review bombing remain unclear, although speculation points towards dissatisfaction with the game. The Wikipedia page has since been corrected and is currently under semi-protection to prevent further unauthorized edits.
The Silent Hill 2 Remake, recently released in early access (full release October 8th), has largely received positive critical reception. For example, Game8 awarded the game a 92/100 rating, praising its ability to create a lasting emotional impact on players.
