Death Stranding Briefing Trailer Leaked, Giving Us 7 Minutes Of New Off Screen Footage

Death Stranding made a large presence at this year’s gamescom, revealing not one, but three new videos during the Opening Night event for the public. It was later reported and then confirmed that a fourth trailer called “Briefing” had been exclusively shown off for attendees. Well as all things, the trailer has finally surfaced online. You can watch the video down below, and in case it does get pulled there is an alternative available.

So at least we have some focus on the overall plot now

Sam must go to Edge Knot City to save Emily and on his travels he must find terminals so he can reconnect survivors to the "Chirale web"

[Nitrowolf2]

Yeah, wish they shown this one off since it gives us a good idea what the objective is other than having to reconnect the world. This one at least got me more interested

[IamTylerDurden1]

The Deadman trailer gave insight into the story and helped make more sense of the things. Still-mother, Bridge Babies, and their connection to BT's.

[Kingthrash360]

Hmmmm🤔🤔㊂ 0;

[excaliburps]

It still doesn't make that much sense to me, which is par for the course for Kojima-developed games. Haha! I'm sure it will once the credits roll though.

Another cutscene...

Better idea of what the story is but I'm not buying it for the story if the gameplay is meh.

[purple101]

i see you added a comment, with no reply function

the point i make, is to answer to people who say there hasn't been gameplay, or they haven't seen it, or enough of it, or in-game footage. so i am shedding light on this.

there has been a glimpse, i admit, small glimpse, so best let people know of whats out there.

glad yo know you've seen it.

[IamTylerDurden1]

The minute to minute gameplay in MGSV was excellent.

[TK-66]

If I'm following your logic correctly we should predict a relatively meh story then for Death Stranding then?

[Edito]

I'd rather buy a game with weak gameplay and strong plot than the other way around...

And by the looks of it you just want explosions, covers, gun fight on a empty game, no wonder gamers this days learn nothing with what they play...

[TK-66]

"I'd rather buy a game with weak gameplay and strong plot than the other way around..."

I get one play-through out of those games and then I'm done with them. A game with a solid core to it's gameplay however can get 100's of hours worth of gameplay and in many cases 1000's. There is not a single story focused game on the market that can offer me 1000 hours of gameplay. Not even the Witcher 3 can't accomplish that and it has a very well crafted narrative.

"And by the looks of it you just want explosions, covers, gun fight on a empty game, no wonder gamers this days learn nothing with what they play..."

You've based this on nothing. You have no argument. Back up this claim by showing how you know what my tastes/preferences in game genres are. If you don't reply with evidence then I can safely assume you like to pull shit out of your ass in discussions and aren't actually interested in an honest conversation.

"I'd rather buy a game with weak gameplay and strong plot than the other way around"

Might I suggest movies then? We play games here sir.

[FunAndGun]

Then just watch a movie.

[XiNatsuDragnel]

grrrreat so far

[goldwyncq]

This is what they should have shown at gamescom, but instead they chose to show Norman Reedus growing a mushroom with his piss and a tacked-on Geoff Keighley cameo appearance.

[mrmikew2018]

Geoff Keighley is the king of "cringe".

[harmny]

I like Geoff kringhey

[FunAndGun]

He could be at times, but his passion for video games overrides all that. He has done a lot for gaming and he is one of us.

[IamTylerDurden1]

I enjoyed the Gamescom showings. I don't need an Anthem announcement trailer with fake footage and choreographed bullshit every time.

For the idiots crying about the trailers or lack of gameplay, Kojima showed a stunning high level supercut trailer right before E3 that showed off gameplay and dramatic elements. It showed motorcycle traversal, melee combat, and shooting as well as stealth gameplay. I loved that trailer, but i'm also quite happy just seeing the game run in this age of pre-packaged, sizzle reel, marketing fluff bullshit.

[theshredded]

My eyes that camera quality! I'd rather wait for the official release.

[Gatsu]

Amazing...

[Thundercat77]

She is so beautiful. I would have accepted the mission just for her. 😍

[bluefox755]

Those homo demons sound pretty scary.

[Stanjara]

I'm more confused than ever.

Why the beach? How does hologram understand that she is alive, if she is taken by the terrorists? Why one man mission? Where is the population. What or who caused explosions? What is this alternate relm and crossing over with babies? When everything is online, how is that solve the problem of apocalyptic America?

[jznrpg]

I’m not watching it

[sushimama]

Yeah me neither. In fact I've already seen too much. I'll just wait for the game

[AmUnRa]

I didn't look at the video, i will wait till the TGS than i can see the video in high quality and in english. I can not wait to play Death Stranding, i dont care about all the hate this game gets.
I dont care about all the downplaying, i have made up my own mind. Now that Konami has nothing to say what Kojima is doing and Sony almost gave him the full control over Death Stranding.
I think that it will be the best game Hideo Kojima ever created. Haters gonna hate, no matter what😉
