He\u2019s been teasing us on social media for months now, and speculation was wild as to what it was. A new mind-bending IP from gaming\u2019s most prominent auteur?<\/p>\n<p>Turns out it was a sequel to 2019\u2019s trippy delivery sim Death Stranding all along, which is massive news for fans of Sam Bridges\u2019s apocalyptic world.<\/p>\n<p>Star Norman Reedus hinted at a sequel back in May, but the confirmation feels glorious. As for what the story is all about, we can only speculate from what we\u2019ve seen, but it\u2019s exciting nonetheless, just to know we\u2019ll be returning to such an original world, created by the inimitable mind of Kojima.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re wondering what the game\u2019s going to be all about, and\u00a0<em>when<\/em> we\u2019ll get to play it, keep reading. We\u2019re going to share everything we know about Death Stranding 2 below.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>When is the Death Stranding 2 release date?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>We have absolutely zilch on release date news at the moment, so we can only speculate. At the Game Awards, Kojima suggested that the release date was fairly near.<\/p>\n<p>If we take this into account, and how polished the trailer is, we\u2019re going to hedge our bets on a <strong>2024<\/strong> release. Don\u2019t take our word for it, though!<\/p> <h2><strong>Can I pre-order Death Stranding 2?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>As expected, there\u2019s no option to pre-order the game just yet, but we\u2019ll update this page as soon as anything changes!<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Which consoles and platforms can play Death Stranding 2?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Like the first one, and the Metal Gear Solid series before it, Death Stranding 2 will be a PlayStation exclusive\u00a0<em>at launch<\/em>. That means initially it will be released on PlayStation 5.<\/p>\n<p>However, as the first Death Stranding eventually came out on PC, we expect this may happen with the sequel at some point.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Death Stranding 2\u00a0gameplay and story details<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>As of writing, there has been no footage or information regarding Death Stranding 2\u2019s gameplay. However, the knowledge that it\u2019s still built using the Decima engine gives us high hopes.<\/p>\n<p>As for the story, we can only speculate from the cryptic trailer (typical of Kojima), and where the last one left off. The trailer suggests locations that might not be part of the USA of the previous game, and the main central characters are returning.<\/p>\n<p>If this sequel will turn things on their heads as much as Metal Gear Solid 2 did, then we\u2019re absolutely here for it. Elle Fanning is a welcome talent, too!<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Is there a Death Stranding 2 trailer?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>There is a Death Stranding 2 trailer, and a mind-bending one at that. It was unveiled at the Game Awards, and we\u2019ll share it below.<\/p>\n<iframe title=\"&quot;Death\" stranding=\"\" reveal=\"\" trailer=\"\" the=\"\" game=\"\" awards=\"\" width=\"&quot;200&quot;\" height=\"&quot;113&quot;\" src=\"&quot;https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/krnQLJYjMXo?feature=oembed&quot;\" frameborder=\"&quot;0&quot;\" allow=\"&quot;accelerometer;\" autoplay=\"\" clipboard-write=\"\" encrypted-media=\"\" gyroscope=\"\" picture-in-picture=\"\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\/>\n<p><strong>Hungry for more gaming?
