Death Stranding 2 may flip the script, making Sam the one who needs saving, and Fragile the unexpected heroine who refuses to let him walk alone.
I really hope this does well, but I'm not sure it will sell even half that the original dud with the novelty/mystery of a brand new Kojima IP gone, and the polarising gameplay on top.
Always enjoy arcs like these in stories and video games. Let's you know the hero ain't some crazy overpowered superhuman. Well... it's usually when the hero has some kind of demon takeover typically in anime lol.
A media event for Death Stranding 2 was recently held in Japan, and the preview embargo is expected to be lifted on May 8, 2025.
Hideo Kojima has revealed a new feature in Death Stranding 2, promising a more accessible experience for newcomers to action games.
ehm okeeey.
i guess i get it, but shouldn't be a difficulty setting be the solution and not a skip feature?
Love the first game but the boss battles were crap, especially the Cliff ones. All Cliff encounters are exactly the same, only in different environments. Furthermore, you have to do the same thing 4 times! No different forms, no different patterns, nothing.
I mean that's a nice thought and all but if you are going to get the sequel to this I'm guessing you are going to be one of those fans who managed to do the boss battles in the original.
I don't think this is going to bring in new fans or ones who didn't like the first one in general.
I understand if it was a brand new story with new characters where you get a clean fresh slate to try and bring in everyone again but a straight up sequel...it has it's fans and I bet they managed to get through the first game no problem.
A weird idea for a sequel to have, since players need to beat the bosses of the first game, unless he plans on making the bosses more complicated this time around which I highly doubt. Honestly it's a horrible feature, for a game about the struggle of going around to deliver things, to let you skip fighting which is a part of the struggle.

I was so happy (and surprised) Death Stranding has the option to play the game with the Japanese voices. Really hope DS2 includes the option as well.
