Death Stranding 2: Hideo Kojima Teases New Trailer For Gamescom 2023

Death Stranding is among the industry’s most unique offerings. With Hideo Kojima leading development, the IP has established a massive fandom that is now anticipating Death Stranding 2.

The first game has sold more than 10 million units, hinting at similar success for the sequel. Last year, the official reveal and the return of Norman Reedus as Sam took the internet by storm.

It appears Hideo Kojima is gearing up to release another anticipated look at Death Stranding 2, with the developer teasing a new trailer for Gamescom 2023.

Why it matters: Hideo Kojima is known for his cryptic hints and teases in the gaming industry. Even before the latest game was revealed, he had teased it several times.

Hideo Kojima is respected in the gaming industry due to his achievements with Death Stranding, the Metal Gear series, and the fact that he edits and directs most of the trailers for his games.

His recent tweet indicates that the developer has again begun to edit a new trailer. With Gamescom 2023 right around the corner, there is a high possibility of Death Stranding 2 being featured at the event.

The event will already be massive as Microsoft is going all out with its biggest booth for Gamescom, bringing 25 games to the event. Gaming giants like Nintendo are also expected to attend.

A new trailer for Death Stranding 2 at Gamescom 2023 would be viewed by millions of attendees and fans, putting Hideo Kojima’s latest project in the spotlight once again.

Hideo Kojima is working with Elle Fanning and Shiori Kutsuna for the next game.

However, the actors were not featured in the first trailer. Since Elle Fanning has a significant role in Death Stranding 2, she is likely to be included in the new footage, along with more details about the story.
