Death Stranding Sequel Revealed

During an interview with actor Norman Reedus (The Boondock Saints, The Walking Dead) talked about working on a sequel to 2019 action strand game Death Stranding back in May, which was reportedly still in early stages of development.

Although no announcement was made so far, game director Hideo Kojima kept teasing his next project with a series of images on Twitter. A teaser trailer for Death Stranding sequel was finally revealed today during The Game Awards 2022.


Death Stranding 2 teaser trailer offers a first-look at its ensemble cast and story premise at TGA 2022 event.



Kojima Productions has officially announced Death Stranding 2, which is a working title for their follow-up to first game. Without revealing more information right away, Hideo Kojima told fans to analyze the trailer and look for hidden clues.

Latest trailer opens up with a bunch of subtle tease at previous game like crabs, hand prints and whales within a household setting. Recurring character Fragile is raising a toddler in a sheltered compound and she looks younger than before.


When intruder broke in, she runs off with the baby on a bike-like vehicle before they were shot and everything was on fire moments later. In a different scene, she tries to pursue an aged Sam in joining her crew for a new journey together.

A mysterious cult of people wearing orange robes is seen carrying over a corpse inside a carrier walks past a giant structure in a desert. Former terrorist leader Higgs Monaghan has come back and has seemingly formed another new group.


Hideo Kojima himself has directed, designed, produced and even wrote Death Stranding sequel before COVID-19 pandemic but then he entirely re-wrote everything from scratch as he doesn't want to draw future real-life parallel anymore.

Aside from Reedus in his role of Sam Porter Bridges, French actor Léa Seydoux (No Time to Die, Spectre) and Troy Baker (Mortal Kombat X, Resident Evil 6) will be joining newest cast members Elle Fanning and Shioli Kutsuna in sequel to DS.


Biggest takeaway from DS2 trailer is that Fragile has seemingly healed, whereas Sam aged a lot for some unknown reason. She has probably rebuilt her company and an emerging vehicle from tar, bearing a "Drawbridge" symbol suggests it.

Death Stranding 2 will be launching exclusively for PlayStation 5 and may eventually come to PC at some point in future. No launch window has been confirmed so far as DS2 is still very early in development and has yet to unveil more detail.
