Being mysterious is probably a supernatural ability that has been lied in the bloodline of Hideo Kojima since he started to make video games or maybe since he born. The 55 year-old developer is still continues his career in the industry and every time he is working on a project, he has new things for us to wonder about. From his strange plans for announcing Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain and P.T. to giving away long jaw-dropping trailers for Death Stranding that seems to be the most successful title of Kojima’s career when it comes to being mysterious and complicated.
Not only the story of Death Stranding, but also its world and gameplay all are almost unknown for us. we know some initial information about the genre and characters, but how all of these going to work is yet to be known. Kojima’s latest appearance in a public event was Tribeca Film Festival in which the director attended along with Norman Reedus to discuss about the game and its features that lead the game to distinguish itself from anything that we have experienced so far. Besides, Kojima also pointed out release of new details, probably a trailer, in a month or so, and since the director announced that, he started to share images of the gameplay on his Twitter account but the thing is the image are too blurry that we cannot find out anything useful, except getting hyped for an upcoming gameplay trailer which is being said to be 8 minutes long.
The first tweet which represent an action figure of Hideo Kojima himself on the center of image, but the monitor behind the action figure is playing something like a game or a trailer of it that is definitely related to Death Stranding. Just look at that blurry characters backpack and LED-lightened outfit which remind us of Sam’s character in the game. However, still there are other things to look for at the image, especially those posters at the bottom of the picture that might be new pieces of artwork for the game, which will be revealed along with the new trailer.
The next tweet is even more clear, as it has nothing to show us except a TV/monitor that is showing a third person view of the main character but again, this too blurry to figure out where he is standing or what is the image tries not to show us.
Last but not least, finally we can surely say that we got an screenshot from Death Stranding and fortunately this the blurriness is less than the previous pictures but the thing is the latest image doesn’t show so much of the game, as we can just figure out Sam between some tall grass.
Kojima knows better than us that these pictures never satisfy the fans, but he is just playing his long-running game with the community and alarming them to be ready for a new set of information on Death Stranding, in which, the release date is the most anticipated bit of it.
