Silent Hill 2 System Requirements

To run the Silent Hill 2 system requirements, you will need an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 GPU, an Intel Core i5-8400 CPU, 12GB of RAM, and 50GB of HD or SSD space.

The Silent Hill 2 remake system requirements are much more substantial than the original cult-classic's hardware requirements from 2001. Fortunately, the remaster of Silent Hill 2 won't be a scare for most modern gaming systems.

The Silent Hill 2 minimum requirements call for an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 graphics card, an Intel Core i5-8400 processor, and 12GB of RAM. Considering the game's origins, these requirements are quite high for a game that is mostly shrouded in fog which, fun fact, was originally used to limit how much of the world the player could see in order to accommodate the hardware limitations at the time.

Uncapping the hardware limitations, you can run the Silent Hill 2 recommended specs with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 GPU or equivalent, an Intel Core i7-8700K CPU, and 16GB of RAM.
