Today we bring you an explanatory guide on How to Unlock the Chainsaw in Silent Hill 2 Remake with precise details.

In the original Silent Hill 2, there were a couple of items hidden to be found, which could then be used or offered to unlock further features including weapons and endings. Below, we will be focusing on how to unlock the chainsaw as a secret weapon in Silent Hill 2 remake.

How to Unlock the Chainsaw in Silent Hill 2 Remake



This ridiculously powerful weapon will already be in your inventory, provided you've beaten the first Silent Hill. If that doesn't work for you, beat Silent Hill 2 remake at least once on any difficulty setting. You may not catch that the weapon's in your inventory. I breezed right by it on my very first playthrough of New Game+, so I would know. I blame my speedrun mentality for that.


NG+ selected from the New Game menu does not change how you go to Silent Hill. Continue, as normal, past the well that is your first save point until you reach the lumberyard via the cemetery. An embedded chainsaw in some logs blocks your way before entering the building to fetch the key and unlock the gate leading to Silent Hill.


How on earth did I miss it? It's actually quite loud. Once you get close to it, a prompt will appear. You can access it in the log and add it to your equip list in this way. Remember this weapon makes a lot of noise even though it doesn't do much damage. Carrying this device about with you can cause you to miss some auditory clues.


You'll also have to resupply your chainsaw when you recover the plank and pipe, two of your other melee weapons. Not changed from prior versions is that the Texas Chainsaw Massacre Easter egg is still in the game. With this, every now and then James will yell and flail the chainsaw around his head. Barring a quick-swap inventory, this makes this an ill-suited weapon for speedrunning. Considering that it can dispatch the majority of foes with a single struck.



Finally, now that we have covered what is required for How to Unlock the Chainsaw in Silent Hill 2 Remake, we will have to do it to continue progressing in this great game.
