Silent Hill 2 just got a huge price drop, and Walmart is offering the best deal of all, selling it for just $30!
Initially, Best Buy and Amazon launched their Black Friday sales with Silent Hill 2 at $50, which seemed like a sweet deal for this newly released remake. But lo and behold, Walmart came in with a jaw-dropping offer, slashing the price down to a mere $30. That’s an incredible bargain for a game that hit the shelves only six weeks ago and is praised as a top-tier console exclusive. If you’re trying to snag this deal before 2 PM PT on November 25, remember that you’ll need to be a Walmart+ member. Their membership is currently half-off, costing $49 annually. But don’t worry, once their Early Access ends, everyone can get the $30 deal. Just be quick; it might sell out fast!
Fans sometimes find these sudden price drops both exciting and a little frustrating.
Amazon might follow suit, as they often align their prices with Walmart’s offers. As of now, the game is still priced at $50 on Amazon, but that might not last long. For those who prefer gaming on PC, Fanatical is running a limited-time sale on the Steam version. You can grab the standard edition for $42, while the Digital Deluxe edition is available for $48, down from $80.
Back in 2001, the original Silent Hill 2 came out for the PS2, becoming a milestone in gaming history. The remake has managed to capture that same magic, earning high praise. Mark Delaney from GameSpot gave it a stellar 9/10 rating, saying, “By staying true to the original game in extremely important ways and taking calculated risks born from an understanding of the source material, all while being supported further by some of the game’s original brain trust, Bloober Team has done what was reasonably considered near-impossible. The remake of Silent Hill 2 is a restless dream come true.”
If horror isn’t your thing, there are other games on sale for Black Friday too. Sci-fi fans can grab Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 for $50, down from $70. Capcom’s epic RPG, Dragon’s Dogma 2, is reduced to $40 from $70. And for Star Wars enthusiasts, Star Wars Outlaws is also going for $50.
