- Death Stranding 2 was announced last year, but a release date remains to be confirmed.
- A developer’s ArtStation profile hints that the game will not arrive before 2025.
Death Stranding recently celebrated its 4th anniversary, and it has already been over a year since the developers announced the second game in the franchise.
While the details about Death Stranding 2 are very limited, fans have been anticipating a new trailer for a long time. A recent tweet from The Game Awards also suggested that the game may show up at the event next month.
However, ahead of The Game Awards, a leak suggests Death Stranding 2 will not be released next year.
Why it matters: This franchise is already a massive success for Hideo Kojima. The first game has earned the respect of millions of gamers, and its sequel will likely receive similar admiration from the industry.
As spotted by a Resetera user, according to the ArtStation profile of an artist who has worked on various games like Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 and Hellbldae 2, Death Stranding 2 will arrive in 2025.
Unfortunately, the user did not reveal the artist’s name to avoid any trouble from companies like PlayStation. However, he assured the forum members that the profile was legit.
If true, the game’s next appearance could unveil this release window. Since The Game Awards is scheduled for 7 December, fans might soon find out if Death Stranding 2 will be available to play by 2025.
It is important to note that an artist might not be the most accurate source of information like release windows since they are not necessarily required to know such details.
Therefore, it might be best to exercise some caution with this information.
Death Stranding 2 will pick up after the events of the first game, with Norman Reedus reprising his role as Sam. The game is expected to offer another strange and twisted journey with the same flair the industry has come to expect from Hideo Kojima’s stories.
If 2025 is indeed Kojima Productions’ target for this game, we will soon learn more information as marketing kicks off. Therefore, we recommend staying tuned for The Game Awards to find out.
