The most highlighted game in PlayStation’s State of Play in January 2024 was Death Stranding 2. This showed us not only its confirmed title, which is Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, but also our first glimpse of the characters. The trailer stars Mad Max director George Miller and Elle Fanning, and includes some delightful surprises, such as a rock Joker, eerie little hands, and a stop-motion toy resembling Alan Wake. The internet is buzzing with excitement as it delves into the hidden details of the Death Stranding 2 trailer. Users on Twitter and Reddit have pointed out various interesting elements, revealing the depth of Hideo Kojima’s creativity and attention to detail. Based on the response, it’s clear that the intriguing toy featured in the trailer has become a major talking point. Hideo Kojima’s deliberate delay in unveiling the character played by German film director Fatih Akin has only added to the excitement and speculation surrounding the game. It’s worth noting that the game also features a collaboration with NASA’s Scientific Visualization Studio, hinting at the potential significance of the moon in Death Stranding 2’s narrative. And with Death Stranding 2 set for release on PlayStation 5 in 2025, along with the promise of more surprises to come, it seems that Hideo Kojima has once again captured the attention of the gaming world.
