Death Stranding 2 release date has been confirmed for June 26, 2025, with pre-order bonuses and editions revealed.
Hideo Kojima calls Death Stranding 2 the spiritual successor to MGS5, with freeform gameplay, VR missions, and a Mother Base feel.
Luckily, everyone seems to like Death Stranding 2
Kojima has always been full of it... this is another example of his BS.
Kojima is as dumb as a stack of bricks. 🤷 His lust over gamers hating his games is just silly. He's a lousy story teller and he should stick to making games built around compelling gameplay.... The moment a cutscene starts my eyes auto roll.
Dumb as a stack of bricks? Funny, some comments have the same effect on me. Instant eye roll.🙄
I’m replaying the first game it’s great. It’s not for everyone no doubt. There are still a lot of people playing it.
I'm playing through it for my first time, enjoying parts of it, and other parts not so much. It's definitely a Kojima ass game in all the good and bad ways. Honestly the combat/stealth sucks ass in it tho, which is really the worst part for me, which is a bit inconceivable given MGS V.
Exactly. The combat and stealth suck and are just shoehorned in to deliver a layer of challenge.
Hold your breath when going through the same BT areas EVERY time.
Nonsense about weather forecasts when it ALWAYS rains in certain areas no matter what.
Tedious Cliff fights.
Dumb BT fights that you can 100% walk (wade) away from without the enemies attacking you.
Broken lore about dead bodies.
The list is long.
Having said that, I've platinumed both versions from scratch.
Then why do a sequel straight away?
Why not something else like maybe a horror game similar to Silent Hills but rebranded into a new IP.

To be honest, he is in a great situation if he doesn't have to make a mass market product. Means he can make what he wants. I think that's great.
Based on what has been revealed so far and the lack of context surrounding it, Death Stranding 2 might be setting players up for an endless road trip.
Digital only. Sigh. Least they aren't shoving our faces in it by including a steelbook, this time they haven't even bothered
No physical disc, no steelbook, no soundtrack, no artbook, most of the extra goodies are digital.
$229.99
Digital-download for collector's editions still seem strange to me.
Two days early accesss is also stupid. The game will be done and the day-0 patch will most likely be out by that point. It's just artificially delaying the proper launch to entice people to buy the more expensive versions.
I was planning to avoid social media for a couple weeks anyway, but I bet there will be plenty of spoilers, before most people even got their hands on the game.
Stupid digital collector editions. I’ll pass this time
I want that CE but man money is tight.
I'll take the basic physical disc copy for $70, that is all.
