'Silent Hill 2' Remake Skewers Wikipedia Amidst Fan Outrage

Silent Hill 2 Remake Wikipedia Page Vandalized by Disgruntled Fans

Silent Hill 2 Remake's Wikipedia entry was recently targeted by fans who altered the game's review scores after its early access launch.

Wikipedia Page Targeted by False Reviews Amidst "Anti-Woke" Speculation

Following numerous instances of inaccurate review scores being posted on the Silent Hill 2 Remake's Wikipedia page, administrators locked down the page, implementing semi-protection. It appears that sections of the fanbase, dissatisfied with Bloober Team's remake, were responsible for manipulating the scores to reflect lower ratings. The motivation behind this review bombing remains unclear, though speculation points to an "anti-woke" backlash. The Wikipedia page has since been corrected and protected from further unauthorized edits.

The Silent Hill 2 Remake, currently in early access with a full release scheduled for October 8th, has generally received positive critical acclaim. For instance, Game8 awarded the game a 92/100 rating, praising its emotional impact on players.
