Speculation about a new Death Stranding game aside, fans of the original do have something to look forward to in the near future. It was recently confirmed that the first part of Death Stranding ’s official two-part novelization will be released in February, penned by the game’s co-writer Kenji Yano. It might not be entirely new, but it will still give fans a way to bide their time while they wait to see what the future has in st
Now, after months of endless speculation, Bandai Namco finally confirmed the contents of Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot’s upcoming DLC, which will cover some interesting content from Dragon Ball Super . The upcoming DLC will introduce Super Saiyan God Goku into the game, and the DLC can be played whether the player has completed the main campaign or
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
Arguably the closest thing the video game industry has to the Oscars or the Emmys is The Game Awards . Each year, a group of industry insiders and journalists come together to vote on which games should win in a variety of categories. The winners are announced in December at The Game Awards , which has been hosted by video game journalist Geoff Keighley since its inception in 2
Aside from the game’s stellar performance, Kojima Productions actually added new content into Death Stranding’s PC version in the form of new side quests in reference to the classic Valve franchises Half-Life and Portal . These quests become available around Episode 2, which is pretty early in Death Stranding’s campaign. These quests are definitely an exciting addition for PC players as they reward different cosmetics from and based upon the Valve franchises; for an example, look no further than the above screenshot that shows a Half-Life skinned vehicle. I’ve haven’t completed all of the Valve quests yet, but I can tell you that in the first mission I hauled a heavy Portal Companion Cube back to a delivery terminal and was rewarded with an awesome pair of Gordon Freeman glasses to make Sam look a little more scienti
Regardless of what direction Kojima Productions decides to go in over the course of the next few years, that direction will likely be a good one. Hideo Kojima has crafted many of the most iconic video game stories and experiences of all time. That trend is likely to continue, and it is just as likely that gamers from all over the world will be going out in droves to check out whatever game **Hideo Kojima ** makes n
Kojima then went on to mention that media reception for Death Stranding would presumably be mixed, with “pros and cons” of Death Stranding ‘s approach to the “strand game” genre. Much of that was actually reflected in the Death Stranding ‘s reviews, which were notoriously mixed from media outlets around the world. Regardless of how the “strand game” genre was realized in Death Stranding 2 news|https://deathstranding2world.com/ Stranding , Kojima ultimately believes in his vision of a “strand game” genre. A potential Death Stranding sequel could solidify that genre, assuming the developer has not been discouraged by Death Stranding ‘s recept
Headlining the PlayStation Store’s Spring Sale is Death Stranding, which is no doubt one of the most highly-anticipated games of 2019 . Death Stranding is currently available at the PlayStation Store for $29.99, which is 50% off its original list price of $59.99. It is worth mentioning that the game’s price is the lowest its ever been, which means this is the perfect opportunity to pick up the game for players who have been waiting to see a significant price decre
Of course, that kind of discourse from a game developer should be taken with a grain of salt, even from an auteur-like figure such as Hideo Kojima. More importantly, it means that Kojima Productions is committed to continuing/expanding the Death Stranding IP further. Rather than potentially working on a new or different IP like the Silent Hill rumor from a few weeks ago, Kojima Productions’ next project may be an entry in or surrounding Death Stranding . Either that, or it’s another “strand” type game that’s similar conceptually, but could be closer to a Metal Gear -style g
Death Stranding’s controls also map really well onto the mouse and keyboard. Every keybind feels intuitive and those who prefer a controller can still easily plug one in and enjoy the game that way. The mouse and keyboard controls even include some quality of life changes that PS4 players would’ve loved; for example, you can now skip cutscenes and any short animations like Sam’s frequent showers without entering any menus. My only real complaint thus far is a small one; the loading screen when first launching the game up takes about 90 seconds. However, all other loading screens are pretty short, so you only have to sit through that load once per sitt
