The milestone was announced by both Konami and developer Bloober Team on their official social media channels.

Player Numbers Boosted by Subscription Services
The total player count does not strictly represent unit sales, as it also includes players who accessed the game through subscription platforms.
A major contributor to the surge in players was the game’s addition to the PlayStation Plus Game Catalogue in October. The survival horror title likely attracted a large number of new players through the service.
The remake also received a boost after launching on Xbox Series X and Series S in November. Initially, the game debuted in 2024 as a console exclusive on the PlayStation 5, alongside a PC release.

To celebrate the milestone, Konami has announced major discounts for both Silent Hill 2 (Remake) and the upcoming series entry Silent Hill f on the PlayStation Store.

In India, the discounted prices are:
