Death Stranding | Head Crab Edition (PC) | Director's Cut (PS5)

They released the teaser Kojima showed off concerning Heartman.

Sometime between May 26 and sometime in June, Death Stranding was delisted on all of Sony's official sites as a PS4 exclusive. Belief appears to be it'll also receive a PC release.

One of the sources.

It's worth mentioning the box art that was released at SDCC also lacked the "Exclusive to PS4" branding that all other exclusives carried. It was noticed then, but people assumed it was just pre-production artwork at the time.

Gamescom teaser by Geoff Keighley on twitter states that Kojima will be on stage Aug 19th for Gamescom with a “different look at the game”.

The teaser trailer posted by Geoff Keighley on twitter showing a static image with 204863 on the top for 1 frame. There’s no fucking way this number is still popping up...

Death Stranding: Challenge Pissing.

WTF man. This thing is a level of absurdity even i can't keep up with.

If I can't aggressively shake the baby into a game over screen, this game ain't Kojima enough for me.

The game will get an "music inspired by" soundtrack called Timefall and is set to release November 8th, 2019. The album will also be included with the special editions of the game.

So a few articles are claiming "kojima doesn't understand what Death Stranding is about". Kind of clickbaity and a bit misleading, but it does make you wonder if the project is getting too ambitious for its own good.

Definitely clickbait. The quote they're running with is:

"Even now, I don’t understand the game... It's world view, gameplay, they are all new. My mission is to create a genre that does not currently exist, and which takes everyone by surprise. There is, naturally, a risk in that…”

While looking into that, I saw that Keanu's visit resulted in him signing Kojima Production's wall with "Save us Hideo."

Yong can be annoying sometimes, but Death Stranding 50 min game play trailer is about to be shown at TGS.



Some solid combat showed off. Nothing more really provided about the plot or story. Seems there's A LOT of social elements involved, including a like system like FB, markers and messages like Dark Souls, and other players ladders, bridges, etc, can even show up in your game. Seems a big part of traversing is balancing yourself with the shoulder buttons while maneuvering. Like was thought before, weight loads and such are a big factor.

The gist of day 2 (even though it's from day 1), courtesy of Youtube translations.



Nothing new was really shown outside of interactions and customizations inside of your room/base. There may be some details, Kojima talked A LOT. Community seems largely split between game will be trash, and Kojima is trolling everyone and leaving as much actual gameplay out of the teasers as he can get away with.

I'm siding on the trolling side. He's always been that way, not so much in previews and such, but fucking with you in the games is a real thing. We know there's combat thanks to day 1 preview and other trailers. The weapons shown were specified to be non-lethal, so I'm sure there are lethal alternatives. My only real concern after what I've seen is the open world seems very, very sparse.
