Summary

  • A new trailer for Death Stranding 2: On the Beach is imminent, according to fans.
  • Hideo Kojima posted a photo on social media, showing the professional working hard in front of a computer, with the caption, “Trailer editing and game building.”
  • Death Stranding 2’s release date may be announced soon as well at the upcoming South by Southwest convention.

Renowned video game designer Hideo Kojima, head of Kojima Productions, has just given a hint that a new trailer for “Death Stranding 2: On the Beach” might be on its way soon. Chatter about a sequel to the critically-acclaimed 2019 action-adventure game started in 2020, but it wasn’t until 2022 that “Death Stranding 2” was confirmed to be in development. Kojima unveiled the sequel during The Game Awards 2022.

As an enthusiast, I can’t help but get excited about the forthcoming return of Norman Reedus as Sam in “On the Beach.” Joining him will be newcomer Elle Fanning, along with returning stars Léa Seydoux and Troy Baker. With a projected 2025 launch date on the horizon, it seems that we might soon receive official confirmation about the release of “Death Stranding 2.”

Recent events suggest that the game is nearing completion, as it has been given a rating in Brazil. Hideo Kojima, the mastermind behind this intriguing title, is expected to reveal more details during his upcoming SXSW panel, as he was conspicuously absent during Sony’s February State of the Play. I can hardly wait!

On Twitter, Kojima posted a picture of himself working diligently at his computer with an Astro Bot PlayStation 5 controller, indicating to the gaming community on his official English account that he’s been busy making a new trailer. Much like the hint he gave for Death Stranding 2, where another photo showed him editing “A Hideo Kojima Game” in computer software, this time he confirmed he was editing a new trailer, stating “Editing trailers and developing games,” which strongly implies that a fresh trailer is coming soon.

Enthusiasts are thrilled by Kojima’s latest sneak peek, but there’s another date to anticipate: March 9, when the South by Southwest event unfolds in a few weeks. Fans reacted positively to Kojima’s recent post, appreciating the behind-the-scenes development glimpses they received, and some also voiced their eagerness for fresh updates on Physint.

As a devoted gamer, I can’t help but feel enveloped in intrigue when it comes to the Death Stranding IP. Even at its most transparent moments, there always seems to be an air of mystery surrounding it. Kojima and his team are being clever with their sequel hints, doling them out gradually as the year unfolds. Recently, we were treated to a quick peek at Death Stranding 2, which featured extended footage that fans have seen before – Sam (Reedus) and Fragile (Seydoux) discussing an elusive benefactor. Now, here’s where it gets interesting: this teaser was part of the main sound mixing process. Could this be another subtle hint that a new trailer might be just around the corner? Only time will tell!
