Silent Hill 2 Remake Review Bombed on Wikipedia by Angry Fans

Silent Hill 2 Remake Wikipedia Page Targeted by False Reviews

Following the early access release of the Silent Hill 2 Remake, the game's Wikipedia page was subject to review bombing by disgruntled fans. These edits falsely lowered the reported review scores from various gaming publications.

Speculation Centers on "Anti-Woke" Sentiment

The motivations behind this coordinated misinformation campaign remain unclear, although speculation points towards dissatisfaction with the remake, possibly fueled by "anti-woke" sentiments. The Wikipedia page, temporarily locked to prevent further edits, has since been corrected.

Despite this incident, the Silent Hill 2 Remake has generally received positive critical acclaim upon its early access launch. For example, Game8 awarded the game a score of 92/100, praising its emotional impact on players. The full release is scheduled for October 8th.
