James Sunderland, the protagonist in Silent Hill 2 Remake, has apparently been given a redesign by developer Bloober Team since we last saw him in January’s State of Play trailer.
An update to the Steam backend reveals what appears to be a new look for James, who appears younger than the original Silent Hill 2 Remake trailer. In that footage, the character looked a little different from the original 2001 version of the game, appearing older and more world-weary.
This ‘new’ version of James looks a lot more like his 2001 incarnation, although personally I didn’t mind his older look as it gave him a bit more of an edge. You can check out a comparison of all three James’ below.
