Summary

  • A trailer for Death Stranding 2: On the Beach has been released, along with details of a console release date and associated merchandise such as an orchestral concert and a watch.
  • The game appears to continue existing storylines and themes whilst also potentially parodying them, simultanoeusly acting as a meta-commentary on identity and hero worship in gaming culture.
  • The trailer and associated products are part of a marketing drive that is typical of Kojima productions, and the original Death Stranding took approximately eight months to appear on a PC.
  • As such, a PC release for Death Stranding 2: On the Beach is likely before the end of 2025.
  • Death Stranding was ultimately well-received, compelling the author to compose a review in the form of a poem about the game, which can be read on Rock, Paper, Shotgun.
