Death Stranding 2 on PS5: a nine-minute trailer
It’s official: Death Stranding will have a sequel with the second part titled Death Stranding 2: On the Beach. Until Sony’s State of Play aired last night, the title was called “DS2” and could have been a surprise from Hideo Kojima. The game was revealed in detail through a nearly 10-minute trailer. The opportunity to learn a lot.
First of all, we know that Death Stranding 2: On the Beach is being developed by Kojima Production with support from Guerrilla Games (the Horizon games). Sam, the protagonist of the first part, is still at the center of the action as he is once again asked to “reconnect the world“. In varied sequences we see how Sam travels through a world that seems gigantic: beaches, snowy landscapes, mountain peaks, desert… More than a journey, this Death Stranding 2 promises “an inspiring mission about human relationships“Where Sam must once again save humanity from extinction.
Death Stranding 2: Kojima praised by players
This trailer for Death Stranding 2: On the Beach is very dense, two sequences remain in your memory. First up is the presentation of an android doll that accompanies Sam on his quest. She looks like Mimir and seems just as talkative as her Nordic colleague. The second ? Troy Baker’s performance. The one who plays Higgs Monaghan, the villain from the first part, returns as the Joker from Batman and impresses with his fighting skills with the electric guitar.
The guitar attack scene made me laugh out loud. Kojima doesn’t beat around the bush and it’s great!
Kojima just kept going and going and going. It’s crazy, beautiful and better than anything I could have imagined.
With a trailer lasting over nine minutes, it’s clear that Death Stranding 2: On the Beach has big ambitions. Whoever says that big ambitions mean longer development: In fact, we have to wait until 2025 for the game to appear exclusively on PlayStation 5. Already a very busy year, with GTA 6 and Monster Hunter: Wilds already planned for next year.
