June 8 is Going to Be a Big Day for Death Stranding 2

Summary

  • Death Stranding 2: On the Beach premieres June 8, 2025, featuring gameplay, special guests, and Hideo Kojima commentary.
  • Kojima Productions plans a Death Stranding 2 World Tour post-premiere to promote the game into November 2025.

As a fervent admirer of Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, I’m thrilled to share that if you’re just as excited as I am, you should jot down June 8, 2025 in your calendar. The mastermind behind this anticipated game, Hideo Kojima, has hinted at a significant unveiling event for Death Stranding 2 coming up on that date. Mark your calendars too for its official release on PlayStation 5, which is set for June 26, 2025!

As Death Stranding 2’s launch draws near within a month, Kojima Productions is gearing up to create buzz for the eagerly awaited sequel. However, it might not require much effort to pique the curiosity of fans and spectators. Since its debut in 2019, Death Stranding has been re-evaluated by an increasing number of players who have come to appreciate its distinctive features that differentiate it from other open-world games. This reassessment has allowed the game to enhance its standing beyond its initial mixed reviews, where players and critics were taken aback by its unconventional pace and design.

On June 8, 2025 at 7pm PT, Kojima Productions is hosting an exclusive live-streamed event, the “Death Stranding 2 Game Premiere,” at the Orpheum Theatre in Los Angeles, California. The event will be hosted by Geoff Keighley and can also be watched on YouTube. During the event, fans can expect to see live gameplay of Death Stranding 2, a panel with special guests, and commentary from series creator Hideo Kojima himself. This event, though not officially part of Summer Game Fest 2025, aligns with earlier announcements that Kojima would be attending SGF 2025 and participating in the festivities.

The debut event for Death Stranding 2 will kick off Kojima Productions’ global promotional campaign known as the Death Stranding 2 World Tour. This world tour, which runs from June 8 and continues beyond the game’s release date in November, promises exciting guest appearances and events that fans can anticipate. Similar to the tour events, the premiere will offer an opportunity for fans to attend in person, but a ticket must be purchased for entry.

Based on their schedule, which includes a world tour followed by the premiere, Kojima Productions seems quite optimistic about the prospects of Death Stranding 2. And with good reason, given the immense enthusiasm among fans eager to discover more about the game. The success of Death Stranding has been so substantial that even Kojima himself had to turn down offers from celebrities wanting to appear in Death Stranding 2. Here’s hoping the game can meet the high expectations set by all the buzz surrounding it.
