Silent Hill 2 offers six languages by default: Japanese, English, French, German, Italian, and Spanish. To play in a language not offered by the game, you will need to download a fan-made translation pack which will replace one of these languages. This page offers translation packs to experience Silent Hill 2 in additional languages.
Install Silent Hill 2: Enhanced Edition before using any of the language packs offered on this page.
Only download the language pack you need. Using multiple language packs will likely result in text display issues.
The language packs offered on this page...
- Are fan-made. Translation accuracy is not checked or assured by the Silent Hill 2: Enhanced Edition team.
