Silent Hill 2 goes all cute with this Pyramid Head plush

Pyramid Head, the main antagonist from the iconic Silent Hill 2, is not exactly what you would call “cute.” However, there’s always room for some adorableness, even in horror, and there’s a plush toy of the monster that’s being made available next year.

After the Credits, a company that specializes in video game and pop culture memorabilia, recently uploaded an image of the loveable-looking Pyramid Head. Despite the fact it still resembles the Silent Hill 2 villain, you can’t help but coo at him in this context.

Normally a punishing deadly monster, this one will be a bit softer on you, probably.. 👀 #afterthecredits #atc #sillenthill #silenthill2 #konami #silenthill #ps #horror #survivalhorror pic.twitter.com/dJpVCKbEdz

While the plush isn’t available until January 4, 2024, you can pre-order one from the website, currently priced at €34.99 (about $38 US).

No sign of a James Sunderland plush, though

Of course, what a lot of you are waiting for–besides soft toy versions of demonic creatures–is the Silent Hill 2 remake. Helmed by Layers of Fear and The Medium studio, Bloober Team, there’s a lot riding on whether a modern telling of this classic horror game will be a success.

The original 2001 release is such an influential part of the genre that any studio handling a remake will be up against a lot of pressure.

We’re still not sure when it’s coming out, though an Australian retailer did suggest it’s due to release on September 29. Neither Konami nor the developer have confirmed this, so we can’t say for certain whether this launch window is accurate.

All we know is there’s plenty of Silent Hill 2 fans who are unsure whether Bloober has what it takes to do the source material justice. If not, at least there’s the adorable version of Pyramid Head to ease the pain.
