During the 2022 edition of Game Awards and following a long teaser introducing Elle Fanning and Shioli Kutsuna in turn for a mysterious project, Kojima Productions had revealed what everyone assumed, namely Death Stranding 2through a sublime trailer mainly featuring Fragile (Léa Seydoux), Lou And Sam Porter (Norman Reedus), as well as a character played by Troy Baker indicating a probable return of Higgs. Since then, it has been completely calm despite Hideo Kojima’s appearance on stage last December, since he only took the opportunity to unveil his other project, OD, with almost nothing to show. While Death Stranding: Director’s Cut will soon make its return on iPhone 15 Pro And 15 Pro Max, This is quite curious information that was shared by a leaker whose reliability is no longer to be proven.
Indeed, billbil-kun unveiled on Dealabs which would be the full title of DS2. Since its announcement, it has in fact been accompanied by the words “Working Title” meaning that it is only temporary. According to the informant, he would ultimately be called Death Stranding 2 – On The Beach. Given the important role of Beach in the universe of Death Stranding, there is nothing shocking about it, even if the point of adding a subtitle seems quite pointless here. Let us note, however, thata Stanley Kramer film released in 1959, known in France as The Last Shore and baptized in English On the Beach, had as its context a Third World War and the radiation emitted by nuclear weapons. Given Hideo Kojima’s cinematic culture, this is typically the kind of detail that counts.
But the most exciting thing about all of this is that billbil-kun claims the release of a second trailer is near and he estimates that it will occur in the next two weeks, why not during a presentation PlayStation. Well, at the same time, you don’t need to be Nostradamus to assume that a State of Play can take place in February like last year, in 2022 and in 2021, especially with the many releases to come. We will pass on the speculations of fans zooming in on the slightest photo posted by Hideo Kojima.
Death Stranding 2 is expected exclusively on PS5, at an unknown date and a feature film is also in preparation. In the meantime, you can discover this universe in Death Stranding Director’s Cutsold for €32.47 on Amazon in its PS5 version and €35.99 at the house of Gamesplanet on PC.
