Death Stranding returned for Sony’s E3 2018 press conference with another grand, bizarre, wild look. Although Hideo Kojima of Kojima Productions wasn’t on hand to introduce it, he brought something great to the table this time, some gameplay.
We see Norman Reedus venturing through what look like playable sections in the new trailer, with a lot of clambouring and walking. He had something on his shoulder in one shot that might be a gun. There’s a definite stealth section later on, although describing it logistically would be very hard so you guys need to watch the trailer.
Other than gameplay, we also met two new characters. One is played by Lea Seydoux, who talks circles around Bridges and eats what appears to be a live maggot at the trailer’s end. Another is Lindsay Wagner, whose role is even more uncertain. They’re the first two women to be shown as part of the game’s cast, although their inclusion only introduces more questions.
Collaborating with Kojima on Death Stranding, which is due on PlayStation 4 sometime in the future, are several other big names. Those include Guillermo del Toro, Mads Mikkelson and Norman Reedus, each of whom perform key roles in the game.
Last time we saw Death Stranding was at The Game Awards 2017 last December. Kojima and host Geoff Keighley are good friends, meaning The Game Awards is often a platform for Kojima to show off what he’s working on. Meanwhile, the first time Death Stranding appeared was at Sony’s E3 2016 press conference two years ago. It’s been a regular fixture ever since.
Death Stranding will be the first game released by Kojima Productions, the studio formed by Kojima after he and Konami had a bitter parting of ways in late 2015.
Sadly there is no release date yet.
Check out the Trailer:
This new trailer for Death Stranding shows off some truly beautiful environments, is set to a melancholy indie song, and yes, Norman Reedus gets naked. We have learned one new piece of information in this one: Reedus plays a deliveryman of some sort, and we’re watching him cart packages across the map, until he is suddenly interrupted by some kind of invisible creature that’s stalking him. We’re also introduced to a new character played by Lea Seydoux, who has a truly incredible jacket.
