Silent Hill 2 Remake Review Bombed on Wikipedia by Angry Fans

Silent Hill 2 Remake's Wikipedia page was recently targeted by fans who altered the game's review scores following its early access release.

Angry Silent Hill 2 Remake Fans Post False Reviews on Wikipedia

Speculation Centers on "Anti-Woke" Sentiment

Following multiple instances of misinformation regarding the Silent Hill 2 Remake's review scores on its Wikipedia page, the page was locked down by Wikipedia administrators. This action followed edits by a group of fans seemingly unhappy with Bloober Team's remake. These edits falsely lowered review scores from various publications. The motivation behind this review bombing remains unclear, although speculation points towards dissatisfaction with the game's direction. The Wikipedia page has since been corrected and is currently protected from further unauthorized edits.

The Silent Hill 2 Remake, recently released in early access (full release October 8th), has generally received positive critical acclaim. For example, Game8 awarded the game a 92/100 rating, praising its emotional impact and effective delivery.
