You can still re-download P.T., but it’s at your own risk

Back when Konami canceled Silent Hills, the P.T. demo for the game was thoroughly removed from the PlayStation store.

The game, a collaboration between Kojima and Guillermo del Toro, starring The Walking Dead's Norman Reedus as the protagonist, forever remained a memory for PS4 owners that had deleted the demo. Of course, scalpers quickly took to selling PS4's with the demo still downloaded on the console via eBay – but that was short-lived as well.

Previously, we detailed a risky way of re-downloading P.T. and it appears that another, equally as risky, way has appeared — as long as you had previously downloaded the demo.

The method comes from Wololo.net (via Eurogamer) and it involves both your PC and PS4. The PC will act as a proxy for your PS4, allowing you to download the demo.

Here's the process:

  1. You will first need to download and install a program called SUWI (make sure to leave all the options checked).
  2. Download an IP Checker, get your IP Address and and turn on your PS4.
  3. Go to settings, then network, and setup an internet connection on your PS4. Choose custom setup and select the correct network.
    1. Hit 'automatic' for IP address settings.
    2. Don't touch the DHCP host name (leave unspecified).
    3. 'Automatic' for DNS .
    4. 'Automatic' for MTU.
  4. Then select use for proxy server.
  5. Enter your IP address and set the port number to 808, hit next to complete the setup.
  6. Now, you can go to your library, enter P.T. and set it to download.
