The Silent Hill 2 PC system requirements are pretty beefy, and for a seemingly gorgeous horror game like this, it makes sense. Publisher Konami recommends that you have an SSD and at least 16GB of RAM for both minimum and recommended specs lists.

Thankfully, you won’t need as much storage as games like Starfield (125GB) and Horizon: Forbidden West (150GB).
