Masahiro Sakurai Announced New Game in Last YouTube Video During the final episode of the “Masahiro Sakurai on Creating Games” YouTube channel, the game director revealed that he’s working on a new game. Sakurai couldn't offer any details about the project yet. However, he did also mention he spent 90 million yen making this video series for YouTube. Masahiro Sakurai said that, if him and the team behind it are able to get the new game made, it will be announced at some point in the future. He said that he received the request to make a new proposal at the same time he was finishing up work on the Super Smash Bros Ultimate DLC. Specifically, it came up right before Kazuya from Tekken came out in June 2021 and at the same time Sora from Kingdom Hearts was in development. The “Masahiro Sakurai on Creating Games” YouTube channel launched in August 24, 2022, and it ended with the recent finale special video on October 22, 2024. While the main episodes for the channel were filmed in advance 2 years ago, the final video was filmed recently. Sakurai also revealed that the content for the channel had been planned from the start. The decision to prepare and film the channel in advance was due to the incompatibilities of creating the aforementioned new game at the same time he produced content for the YouTube channel full-time. Sakurai also offered some insight into the production costs for the channel, revealing that it costed 90 million yen total, or approximately $630,000 at the time of producing the finale special video. Most of the costs went into editing from company HIKE, with a large portion going to the English translation made by 8-4, Ltd, and a small portion going into other costs, such as licensing video or crossover episodes.

Silent Hill 2 Remake Patch Keeps James From Getting Stuck Konami released an update patch for the Silent Hill 2 remake which includes some technical updates, such as reduced visual glitches and stuttering, but also fixes an issue concerning protagonist James Sunderland getting stuck on objects. The full patch notes are pretty lengthy, and cover a total of two sections: technical and gameplay. Several fixes have been rolled out across the PlayStation 5 and PC version. As mentioned above, the Silent Hill 2 remake Patch 1.04 will stop James from getting stuck on objects, such as windows. However, the gameplay issues that have been resolved with this patch seem pretty significant. As it includes fixes to the Abstract Daddy's A.I., James teleporting to the other side of the Brookhaven Hospital if you looked through the wrong peephole, and more. Other fixes include collision, the ability to pick up items during boss fights (which seems pretty major), and things as inconsequential as the deformation of the skirt on the Nurse enemies. Shortly after it's release on October 8, 2024, Konami announced the Silent Hill 2 remake had sold over 1 million copies worldwide . This makes the remake the fastest selling Silent Hill title to date. However, it has not yet cinched the title of being the best selling Silent Hill title, as that still goes to the original. The Silent Hill 2 remake is available for PC and PlayStation 5. The post Silent Hill 2 Remake Patch Keeps James From Getting Stuck appeared first on Siliconera .
