Kojima and company made an appearance at Tokyo Game Show 2024, bringing new info and footage for Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, including a new Photo Shoot Event, character names and, by performing certain actions in the game, an in-game performance by Daichi Miura.
For starters, Kojima revealed some of the new characters for the sequel to the 2019 hit, with George Miller providing his likeness for Tarman (voiced by Mitsuru Miyamoto in Japanese), Dollman being portrayed by Fatih Akin (voiced by Tomokazu Sugita in Japanese), Elle Fanning‘s Tomorrow (voiced by Shion Wakayama in Japanese), and Rainy (portrayed and voiced by Shioli Kutsuna).
Not to be confused with a Photo Mode (which will be added to Death Stranding 2), the “Photo Shoot Event” allows the player to photograph the characters with an instant camera. Kojima suggested that while this may seem like a fun extra, it does have some influence on the story.
Regarding the in-game performance by Daichi Miura, players can trigger the event by performing a certain action in the game’s Private Room. After which, players can watch a performance by Miura, alongside a group of Dollman, performing the song “Horizon Dreamer.” The song itself is available now on music streaming services.
Lastly, in typical Kojima fashion, the director was coy about the release date for Death Stranding 2. “While we haven’t announced the release date yet, we naturally already have one set. The plans are in place. Although production is progressing towards that goal, there are various factors that could affect the timing of the release… We’ve said 2025, so it will come out next year. The release date will be announced sometime next year.”
While development isn’t “done”, Kojima feels confident about the game, which he refers to as being “an even weirder game than [Death Stranding].”
Death Stranding 2: On the Beach is currently in development for the PlayStation 5. Big thanks to Gematsu for the info.
