Round Up: Death Stranding 2 PS5 Previews Describe a Metal Gear Glow Up for Kojima Sequel
In Hideo we trust
Kojima Productions recently invited a handful of games writers to Tokyo to play Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, and reading through the impressions, this sounds like a real glow-up for the fledgling franchise.
The game takes place in both Mexico and Australia, with the Chiral Network protagonist Sam helped create in the original game now taken over by the Automated Porter Assistant System. Effectively, the character’s job has been replaced by AI. Topical!
Some big features of the new environments include a greater emphasis on weather, with rain leading to floods and heavy winds blowing you off course. You’ll need to use fresh technology to help with your delivery missions, with everything from your backpack to vehicles being customisable.
