If you’re a fan of Silent Hill 2, you might want to sit tight because Konami just dropped update 1.06, and it’s got some news for us PlayStation 5 Pro users! 🎮💥 Let’s dive into what this patch claims to fix!
So first up, the big deal here, those pesky graphical issues that made the game look worse on the shiny PS5 Pro compared to its base model. I mean, come on! When you get a new console, you expect an upgrade, not a downgrade! But fear not, the latest patch promises to tackle these problems head-on. According to Digital Foundry, we can now enjoy boosted frame rates in both quality and performance modes, 30 FPS feels stable now, and we’re hitting that sweet 60 FPS too!
The update also addresses various gameplay bugs that have been bugging players (pun intended!). From fixing door markers in Brookhaven Hospital to smoothing out enemy traversal spots, yes please! Can we talk about those mannequins getting stuck in ambush mode? Like seriously?! That’s nightmare fuel right there. 😱

The bad news? Some glaring image stability issues still linger on PS5 Pro. Despite Konami addressing many concerns, it seems like this is yet another case of PSSR upscaling causing headaches rather than solving them. Players are left wondering if they really need to settle for these visual quirks or just stick with the standard version.
