Some vehicles are pretty difficult to turn with, and drifting is practically impossible. It would be a great addition for Death Stranding 2 to include not only more vehicles but better ways for them to drive and st
In late September 2022, a private document from Sony Interactive Entertainment was leaked on ResetEra by user Arubedo . A spreadsheet appearing to list forthcoming PlayStation titles, the document is dated 2021 and includes a game called Ocean, which was attributed to Kojima Productions. Leaker Dusk Golem on ResetEra claimed that Ocean is, in fact, a codename for Death Stranding 2 story Guide Stranding 2, Kojima's next game . According to Insider Gaming , Dusk Golem has a track record for reliable leaks in the horror genre, so while some have questioned the authenticity of the leaked document, there are reasons to believe in its accur
For a game with heavy themes of connecting people with kindness, there sure are plenty of human enemies to confront in Death Stranding . However, the Mules that the player constantly comes across while traversing the US landscape are nothing more than a nuisance that the player eventually learns to avoid altogether. What's worse is that Death Stranding actively encourages players not to fight them. As the cut content from Death Stranding 's Director's Cut has exemplified, both the stealth and the combat is clunky and very unwieldy. Additionally, the player is discouraged from using any lethal means of takedown, in fear of causing a destructive voidout. So what this leads to is the player having to take painstaking effort to ensure all the Mules live when fighting them, making them even more annoying to deal w
Death Stranding is set in a future version of the USA that has been torn apart by strange creatures called Beached Things . Despite the American setting, keen-eyed players will have noticed that the landscapes are not what one would expect from the country. Players are met with black soil, rugged terrain, and moss-covered mounta
Subsequently, on Twitter, Kojima cryptically revealed that " The answer to ‘WHO’ at TGS will be in the next ‘WHERE’. " Internet sleuths quickly determined that the silhouette in the poster belonged to actress Elle Fanning, suggesting she might be one of the actors to appear in a Death Stranding sequel . This was confirmed soon after at the PAX Australia event by Game Awards host Geoff Keighly, who tweeted that Fanning would indeed appear in an upcoming Kojima game. Based on the poster and Kojima’s subsequent remarks, many observers believe this game to be Death Stranding
Clues that **Death Stranding 2 ** is in development have been appearing for months, with fans of the original Death Stranding and its creator, Hideo Kojima, trying to squeeze every possible drop of information from what are very often cryptic hints and leaks. First, there was a comment in September 2021 by actor Norman Reedus, who did the motion-capture and voice acting for main character Sam Porter Bridges in the first Death Stranding , saying that a sequel was in negotiations. Then, in May 2022, Reedus casually mentioned in an interview that production on the second game had already begun. This was followed by a teaser from Kojima Productions that a game was in the works and then, most recently, a leaked document from PlayStation that seemed to confirm it.What all of this adds up to, though, is a great deal of uncertainty. Death Stranding (and its Director's Cut gameplay fixes) was a popular if not divisive, successful game that won a lot of nominations, awards, and acclaim for its developers, in the United States, Europe, and Japan, which would suggest that a sequel is likely. And it does seem undeniable that a Death Stranding 2 is in the works, judging by the sheer number of rumors and leaks that have surrounded the game over the last year, some of them apparently perpetrated or at least encouraged by Kojima himself. But few details about the game are known, and even fewer have been confirmed by people close to the project. Related: Death Stranding 2's Best Improvement Would Be A Party System Still, the likelihood of a sequel to 2019’s Death Stranding has excited many fans and players craving a return to the game’s post-apocalyptic wasteland and the reappearance of the courier Bridges, who crosses this terrain delivering supplies to isolated settlements across Death Stranding ’s unrecognizable map of America and linking them into a wireless communication network. Along with Reedus, other Hollywood actors and celebrities made appearances in Death Stranding , and rumors have pointed to the possibility of other familiar faces (or their motion-cap renderings) appearing in the sequel. A brief review of what is known for certain about Death Stranding 2 , what is hinted at, and what is hoped for can help bring Kojima watchers up-to-date on the status of his latest proj
During the brief glimpses of the outdoors, there is no longer black sand and moss-covered terrain. Instead, the environment appears rockier and desert-like. With the game taking place after the first title, in a world that has seemingly connected more, it will be interesting to see how it introduces fresh traversal challenges. The new game isn't entirely void of large bodies of water, however. The trailer reveals a large device emerging from what appears to be a lake. The device may be a vehicle of some sort, as Fragile tells Sam that it's time to "start a new journey" as it ari
