In the Silent Hill 2 Remake, players can use six different weapons: three melee options and three ranged firearms. While the Wooden Plank and Steel Pipe are easily found throughout the game, the third melee weapon—the Chainsaw—is a hidden gem that requires some effort to find. This guide will walk you through the process of acquiring the Chainsaw in the Silent Hill 2 Remake.
How to Obtain the Chainsaw in Silent Hill 2 Remake
To wield the Chainsaw effectively in Silent Hill 2 Remake, you must first complete the game one time. After your initial playthrough, initiate the ‘New Game+’ mode.
Next, proceed through the game’s early mist-filled sections until you encounter Angela. Follow the path leading you towards the Lumberyard, which is located not far from the ‘Silent Hill Ranch’.
Upon reaching the Lumberyard, look to your right where logs are stacked. You will discover the Chainsaw lodged within one of the logs.
In addition to acquiring the Chainsaw, you will also earn the “Lumberjack” trophy in Silent Hill 2 Remake.
Does the Chainsaw Require Fuel?
Fortunately, the Chainsaw does not require any fuel, making it even more desirable. Its ability to deal significant damage, coupled with unlimited use, allows players to engage enemies without the fear of depleting resources. This makes it a superior choice over most firearms during ‘New Game+’ in Silent Hill 2 Remake.
The Chainsaw remains accessible in ‘New Game+’, primarily due to its capacity to eliminate most enemies in a single strike, streamlining your journey through the game. While major bosses may still require strategic planning and more hits, when navigating tight corridors or horror-filled zones packed with foes, nothing outperforms the Chainsaw.
