So while Shinkawa’s illustration isn’t a solid indication of what could be coming to Death Stranding 2 , it is possible that the sequel is in fact in development. Kojima Productions recently confirmed that it’s hiring for a new project, and Kojima himself has teased ideas for Death Stranding ’s potential followup ever since the game launched last November. On the other hand, it’s also possible that this version of the sequel was the big Kojima Productions project that recently fell apart . One can’t say for sure until Kojima says otherw
So, there’s a strange turning point that comes after reaching the first of Cliff Unger’s war beaches, where the player is suddenly given the ability to kill enemies with the introduction of lethal weapons. However, as Kojima Productions writes through the gameplay , the lack of ludonarrative dissonance means that the player is heavily punished for killing enemies, but is given almost no reward for doing so. It’s a positive in a storytelling sense, but leaves the player with all these weapon options that are really meaningless and could be explored further to give a stronger risk/reward factor for straight up mur
Few AAA games of recent years are as unique or as divisive as Death Stranding . While the unconventional gameplay of Hideo Kojima ’s open-world post-apocalyptic delivery sim failed to resonate with a lot of players, plenty of fans have been curious to see it expanded upon in a potential sequel. To that end, Kojima has clarified a few things about a piece of concept art that had fans thinking that he was teasing such a g
Many gamers will be tuning in to The Game Awards 2019 to see which game won the coveted Game of the Year, but others will be tuning in for the world premieres. The Game Awards has gained a reputation for being an event where major new game announcements take place, with this year’s event promising at least 10 world premiere reveals for gamers to look forward
While the post-doomsday interpretation of America in Death Stranding is certainly terrifying, a disturbing implication to consider is how much the destructive event that caused everything to begin with has also affected the rest of the world. If Kojima Productions is planning to make a return to this devastated world, there are plenty of other locations around the world that can provide an interesting backdrop for the story to conti
If Silent Hills doesn’t pan out, it is highly unlikely that Kojima would let all of the ideas and development that had been put into that game go to waste. Instead, Kojima Productions could be working to funnel many of those ideas into a brand-new horror IP . Thankfully, this seems to be the most likely scenario, as Kojima himself has already admitted that the next game Kojima Productions develops will be a horror ti
With PlayStation Blog having shown off several great screenshots thus far via its Share of the Week posts, 2020’s Share of the Year includes some of the best images taken in video games, according to PlayStation. With captures shared from The Last of Us 2 , Death Stranding , and other major releases, PlayStation fans clearly put a lot of time into photo modes last y
While travelling through a ruined Tokyo would surely be a haunting experience, what would be even more mesmerizing is to see the more rural areas of the country. Mount Fuji alone would be a spectacle to witness, especially if the game allowed the player to climb to its very peak for a delivery mission. Just as Ghost of Tsushima recently proved , the lush and vibrant open fields in the country sides of Japan can be very peaceful to explore and the endless assortment of colors on display within the nature there is a feast for the e
For my website the uninitiated, Kojima caused a stir this summer when he tweeted what many believed to be concept art for a new Death Stranding game . Back in June, the developer shared a photo of his desk, and eagle-eyed fans took notice of an illustration of a never-before-seen vehicle branded with “BRIDGES,” the name of the corporate government that protagonist Sam Bridges works for. Naturally, this has resulted in plenty of speculation as to what it could mean for the future of Death Strandi
Now that Kojima Productions is finished with Death Stranding , its first major title since Kojima’s departure from Konami, fans are waiting with bated breath to see what the video game producer and writer is going to come up with next. There are plenty of theories out there about what these games might be. Here are the the most plausible (and the most ridiculous) theories availa
This year, six games are competing to be crowned Game of the Year, with Control , Death Stranding , Resident Evil 2 , Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice , Super Smash Bros. Ultimate , and The Outer Worlds all up for the big prize. It’s hard to say which game will walk away with the distinction of being named Game of the Year, but it should be noted that Death Stranding is nominated for the most awar
