How to Get the Chainsaw in Silent Hill 2 Remake
The Chainsaw is actually a weapon that can’t be found on a first playthrough or New Game save. This weapon is exclusive to New Game+ which becomes available after beating the game for the first time. This can be any of the game’s multiple endings. To start a New Game+ playthrough, simply press “New Game” on the main menu and toggle on “New Game+” in the Game Mode option. This mode gives you access to new filters, endings, and items, including the Chainsaw.
The Chainsaw weapon is found very early in New Game+. In fact, it is the first weapon you will come across. Make your way past the Graveyard where you first meet Angela and head into Silent Hill Ranch. Once inside the Ranch, stick to the right side of the path. Across from the ranch’s sign, you’ll find the Chainsaw stuck into some logs. Interact with the Chainsaw to equip it. This powerful melee weapon does devastating damage and can take down just about any enemy in a single blow. It even comes with a few unique idle animations as well! Picking up the Chainsaw will also unlock the “Lumberjack” Trophy and Achievement.
You now know where to find the secret Chainsaw weapon in Silent Hill 2 Remake. Stay tuned to Gameranx for more news, updates, and guides for Silent Hill 2 Remake as well as other great games in the future.
