A special message from Hideo Kojima:

People have created “Walls” and become accustomed to living in isolation.

“Death Stranding” is a completely new type of action game, where the goal of the player is to reconnect isolated cities and a fragmented society. It is created so that all elements, including the story and gameplay, are bound together by the theme of the “Strand” or connection. As Sam Porter Bridges, you will attempt to bridge the divides in society, and in doing create new bonds or “Strands” with other players around the globe. Through your experience playing the game, I hope you’ll come to understand the true importance of forging connections with others.

Now, please enjoy the latest Death Stranding trailer.

I wasn't expecting it to release so soon, that's really good news!

Maybe I'm too stupid, or my gaming taste is seriously messed up, but I can't understand hype and excitement this games gets.

[RevengeancePrime]

I'd like to see more gameplay, but aside from that, I'm really looking forward to this game. Not sure if I want the collector's edition though.

[Fr_0zt]

I don't even know what to do right now.  This all looks fucking amazing!

I actually quite enjoyed the trailer, but something feels slightly "off" about it. The gameplay itself looks incredibly average, the melee combat animations in particular looked very clunky, and the story seems a bit too melodramatic, bordering on pretentious. MGS got away with it because of the humour and action-y set pieces, but this seems to be doubling down on the "arthouse" vibe, especially when you look at the cast he's put together (Seydoux, Mikkelsen - and NICOLAS WINDING REFN? wtf)

 

I also doubt we'll see another proper gameplay trailer until just before launch - I still don't get what the hell you're supposed to be doing, but it vaguely seems like some kind of open world action-adventure narrative like most of the other PS4 exclusives.

 

There's definitely a "story" here, but I'm still not convinced we're getting much of a "game".

It's a Decima Engine, the same engine that was used in HZD.

just getting the base edition.

apparently this release will cause last of us 2 to delay from October until feb 2020. 

 

should be an alright game.

Yeah, still unsure between normal and deluxe (digital), the extra stuff doesn't really wow me for the extra $20.

So since we have the release date now, is it too much Kojima for some more Gameplay footage

I assume the hype is because Kojima is doing it

[communistwookiee]

A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.

[Nightstream88]

Probably won't get it day 1, but coming out sooner than I would've guessed which I was guessing 2021.

[ahmedelebiary]

Is this what Daryl Dixon will be doing after the zombie apocalypse ? 

[BlindMango]

Gah this game always confuses the heck out of me - can’t wait to see more  

[DJROE95]

I really wasn’t expecting this to be released so soon, I’d have put money on it being 2020/2021 realistically. 

I don’t know what to think of it from the trailer, so confusing but blumin’ brilliant looking. That extending ladder alone made me giddy with excitement! 

I’ll be picking this up for sure at some point, perhaps not right at launch though. Perhaps I’ll ask Santa to pop this on his sleigh for me ?

Sure, the man has worked for his name, now his name works for him.

[AK-1138]

Kojima has let me down with his work outside the Metal Gear idiom before... hell, even within it he's hardly infallible. I don't particularly care about it either way until--or unless--certain parties of interest show any indication of its superlativity, if any.

E3 most likely or the next state of play crap

[YROSHIKU]

I thought I would never say it again but man I'm really hyped for this game, it's definitely a day one purchase for me and hell I might even get a collectors edition this time.

[GrimClover]

I still don't understand the storyline. Not a day one purchase for me, but my curiosity has peeked to see what it's like after it's released.  

[Honor_Hand]

And each trailer just helps to cement my confusion. ? But hey, it's a Kojima game. The guy is a genius, or so a lot of people say, so he must really know what he is doing there.

 

From a distance, you can see the game looks technically impressive and very, eh, thought-provoking too. Not really sure what it is all about but I'll be looking forward to reading a bit more on what people and players think of it once it releases fully.  

[Guest]

Looks good. Alright gonna add to my wishlist.

[Ptirle]

I'm hyped but don't know what for lol... Because of Kojima maybe? I believe he will not disappoint us and because no one really knows what the game is about or what is the story behind it, it does't mean it will be stupid or unenjoyable game... Kojima has done something like this before, and we are baffled, which was Kojima's intent.
