Hideo Kojima shared new details from the upcoming game, Death Stranding 2 On the Beach at the company’s Youtube Channel.
New Details From Death Stranding 2 On the Beach
The sequel from the Death Stranding franchise was first announced at The Game Awards 2022 but after that announcement, we haven’t seen much from the franchise, until the latest trailer release. The new trailer offered a lot of new content from the game and answered some questions but also created questions too.
At the company’s Youtube Channel, Hideo Kojima revealed new details from Death Stranding 2 On the Beach.
Death Stranding 2 On the Beach is not set in North America. Kojima said “This is a different continent,”. The upcoming action adventure will see Sam expand Death Stranding’s Chiral Network as a member of a private organization. That’s because the denizens of the unnamed continent on which the next game takes place could consider any local operation by the United Cities of America (UCA) as an act of invasion.
Kojima also said that the exploration team is led by Fragile, which is an another character makes it’s return with the sequel. “She’s no longer her weak self from the past,” the director remarked, before moving on to explain how the upcoming game will feature real time terrain change like floods, forest fires, and earthquakes.
Looking at the geography showcased in the latest Death Stranding 2 trailer doesn’t really help narrow down the list of its potential settings, even when Kojima’s recent hint is taken into account. For example, Sam can be seen trekking through a massive arid desert at one point during the video, but those exist on every continent bar Antarctica, and could still exist in the game’s post-apocalyptic version of Antarctica. Likewise, the landmarks showcased in the video are completely alien, much like those from Death Stranding.
Aside from the new continent, Death Stranding 2 can also offer human made environments. If we look at the trailers released by developers, we can say that the upcoming game will feature more indoor locations than its predecessor.
