Of course, you'll need to pay extra for the pleasure, unless you take advantage of this handy money saving trick courtesy of CD Keys. As you can see from the link below, CD Keys is selling £70 PlayStation Store cards for just £62.99. This means you can purchase the £69.99 Silent Hill 2 Deluxe Edition for just a few pounds more than the £59.99. Standard Edition.

After purchasing a top-up card from CD Keys, the retailer will send you a link with the code that can redeemed on the PlayStation Store.

The upcoming Silent Hill 2 remake will benefit from enhanced visuals and sound, as well as various other quality of life improvements.

It also adopts the popular over-the-shoulder gameplay style popularised by fellow survival horror games like Resident Evil 4.

Indeed, the combat system has been updated with new moves such as the ability to dodge attacks and aim down sights.

While Bloober Team has been keen to retain the spirit of the original and not change too much, fans can also explore new locations and buildings that were previously inaccessible.

"Enjoy the same acclaimed story, even while you experience the town of Silent Hill with fresh eyes across an expanded map," the company explains.
