The remake introduces new mechanics and improvements that enhance the experience, without altering the original experience in any way.
Excellent balance between action and exploration, which now leads us to visit many new locations in Silent Hill.
Impeccable narrative depth, addressing serious and very important themes.

At first, one might find the controls a bit stiff, especially during close combat.

The incredible horror atmospheres of the original are all there, and even more.
A lot of reworking on puzzles and boss battles.
Enhanced combat system but faithful to the past.

A faithful remake of the original, but generous, bringing novelty and expanding the adventure.
A soundtrack created by Akira Yamaoka (the original composer of the series), which will surely give you nightmares.
A high-quality scenario, always gripping and exciting.
A feeling of oppression due to the crackling of the radio coming out of the DualSense...
A correct lifespan of 15 hours for the first part.
The possibility to replay in "New Game Plus".
An aggressive AI that gives you little respite.

Some passages are a bit long and repetitive.
It is not always easy to be able to save in certain levels.
The facial animations of the different characters deserve to be retouched.
...The crackling of the radio through the DualSense can be annoying after a few hours.
An aggressive AI that gives you little respite, and that will not please all players.

Great voice acting performance from Luke Roberts (aka James Sunderland)
New endings

Original is still scarier
Scare elements are right in your face unlike the original
Combat isn't necessarily better than the original (and I'm saying it from a personal perspective)

A superb remake that keeps the essence of the original and enriches it in all its aspects.
Bloober Team is leveraging the technology of the PS5 for the ultimate immersion.
