Silent Hill 2 Remake is just months from release, but original art designer Masahiro Ito says he almost rejected the chance to work on it entirely.
"Back in late 2019 or 2020, he says that [Konami series producer] Motoi Okamoto reached out to him via Twitter, as it was called back then, and asked whether he would be willing to cooperate in a Silent Hill 2 Remake," Ito-san's translator said at the Tokyo Silent Hill 2 Remake preview event on August 8. "At the time, he had felt that there was no need to do such a thing. So his original plan was to reject the idea."
