How to find the flashlight in Silent Hill 2 Remake

The reimagining of the cult game Silent Hill 2 looks just as dark and terrifying as the original. And if the streets of the city are shrouded in thick fog, making objects visible only at close range, you can't do without a flashlight in dark rooms. In this guide, we will tell you how to get the flashlight in Silent Hill 2 Remake.

When you find yourself in the eastern part of the city, you will discover that the flashlight is hardly needed here. You will have to visit several buildings and establishments where you can solve a few puzzles and progress through the story. However, in the Wood Side apartment complex, you can't do without a light source.

To get into the apartment complex, you will need to run through East Silent Hill and collect a few items:

After collecting all these items, solve a simple puzzle and watch a cutscene with the record player. As a reward, you will receive the key to «Neely's Bar,» which will allow you to access the courtyard. Next to a blue car with license plates ending in «06,» you will find the key to the Wood Side apartment complex.

Once you reach the apartment complex, immediately go up to the second floor and turn right. In the distance, you will see the only open door — the light source is coming from this room. Inside, among mannequins, you will find one with a flashlight hanging on its chest.

Note: As soon as you pick up the flashlight, a new monster will attack you. It's up to you whether to knock it out or run away. The monster is quite aggressive, so be ready to make a quick decision.
