  • Pre-orders of the title will be available from March 17, and those who buy particular editions will gain 48 hours of early access.
  • Hideo Kojima revealed several new details about the game in nearly 10 minutes of new gameplay.

Death Stranding 2: On The Beach was first announced over two years ago, and the game’s marketing has been quite sporadic since then. Following much speculation about new footage last year, Hideo Kojima left fans disappointed and wanting more.

Fortunately, just three months into 2025, the legendary developer has spilled the beans on his latest AAA epic. Death Stranding 2: On The Beach has received new gameplay footage and a final release date. The title officially arrives on June 26.

Why it matters: The original Death Stranding sold millions of units across PlayStation and PC. Its sequel is shaping up to be bigger and better in every way, setting the stage for even bigger success.

Death Stranding 2: On The Beach’s latest footage is nearly 10 minutes long, giving fans enough content to stay satisfied till the June 26 release.

The latest trailer confirms that fans can pre-order the game starting March 17. Hideo Kojima has also shown off the Collector’s Edtion, which consists of various extras for die-hard fans of the IP.

Those who purchase the Digital Deluxe or Collector’s Edition will be granted two days of early access, unlocking the game on June 24th. In addition to the early access, these editions provide various in-game items.

Also, the Collector’s Edition comes with a personal letter from Hideo Kojima and a 15″ Magellan Man statue.
