Now here is something really cool. YouTube’s ‘Enveloping Sounds’ has shared a video, showcasing Silent Hill 2 Remake with fixed camera angles. And as you will see, it looks retro-amazing.
To create this video, Enveloping Sounds used the Free Came from the Universal Unreal Engine 5 Unlocker. This was done to showcase what SH2R could look like with fixed camera angles. In other words, it’s a concept video. This isn’t a mod that you can use.
To be honest, I’d love to see a mod that will allow you to play the entire game with fixed camera angles. However, I’m not sure whether this will actually happen.
The reason I’m saying this is because we’ve seen similar concept videos for other horror games. And, as you may have guessed, none of them got a playable mod. For instance, in October 2023, we shared a video that showcased Alan Wake 2 with fixed camera angles. We’ve also seen a similar video for Resident Evil 4 Remake.
All hope is not lost though. Since this is a UE5 game, someone may figure out a way to create this mod. I mean, we already got one for Resident Evil 2 Remake. I know, I know. Resident Evil 2 Remake uses the RE Engine. Still, it’s possible. And yes, you can now re-experience RE2R with fixed camera angles.
Speaking of Silent Hill 2, Bloober Team hasn’t released any patch for it as of yet. As I’ve already said, there isn’t ANY mod that can reduce or fix the game’s traversal stutters. However, there are some cool mods that you can try. For instance, you can enable NVIDIA Ray Reconstruction for better visuals. You can also remove the 30fps cap from the in-engine cutscenes. And then we have the DLSS 3 Frame Generation Mod. Oh, and if you are not interested in a paid mod, you can force AMD FSR 3.0 Frame Generation. Just use the guide from this article to enable it. Finally, you can download two mods to improve the 3D models of Angela and Maria.
