Developer Bloober Team, known for the successful Layers of Fear series, was given the opportunity to do the Silent Hill 2 remake, and the result is an immersive horror experience that feels both new and nostalgic to fans. Many changes were made in the Silent Hill 2 remake, but many fans welcomed them as they expanded upon certain story points and, of course, breathed new life into James' haunting adventure.
After the massive success of Silent Hill 2, many fans are looking forward to Bloober Team's Cronos: The New Dawn, which is expected to come out in 2025. Likewise, Silent Hill 2's director, Mateusz Lenart, said in an interview with YouTube channel Bonfire Conversations that his dream project would be a horror fantasy RPG, citing J.R.R. Tolkien's work as one of his inspirations. Host Hamidreza Nikoofar suggested that Bloober should make a horror game based on The Lord of the Rings, to which Lenart said, "Don't think I didn't pitch my ideas around that."
In the YouTube comments, many fans praised Lenart for his vision, especially seeing how Bloober Team pulled off the Silent Hill 2 remake's world. They also said that the interview was an insightful look into Lenart's creative process and inspirations, adding that they're excited to see what he and his team will come up with next, like a remake of Silent Hill 2's DLC or another Silent Hill game.
Although it isn't set in stone yet, a Lord of the Rings horror game would definitely be interesting because of its dark medieval themes. As fans know, the story revolves around Frodo as he sets out on an adventure to destroy The One Ring, while also battling the forces of Sauron. The Lord of the Rings franchise has many scary characters, and they can become even more terrifying if they're used in a potential horror title.
