Death Stranding 2: On The Beach Guide – How To Fast Travel, All Methods

In Death Stranding 2: On The Beach, where the core gameplay involves navigating hazards and safely delivering goods across long distances, it might initially seem odd to have a fast travel feature. However, this option proves handy for making swift trips between known locations within the game, though it’s not accessible right at the start of the story.

This manual for “Death Stranding 2: On The Beach” focuses on helping you discover and efficiently utilize all available quick-travel options.

How To Unlock And Use The DHV Magellan

Advance the plot in Mission 012 by probing into the peculiar river currents at West Fort Knot’s F1 location. Once you’ve viewed the scene, vanquish the colossal, tentacled adversary and conclude your delivery. After the DHV Magellan is switched on, endure some additional scenes.

Upon waking up in your living space, you’ll find a message notifying you that the ability to travel quickly using the DHV Magellan through the tar streams has been activated.

To begin Magellan’s voyage, first, navigate to the Ring Terminal and find the ‘Chart Course’ button located at the top right corner. This button allows you to pick your destination. But remember, you need to be actually onboard the DHV Magellan when confirming the departure, as it may depart without you if you’re not there.

In total, it could take anywhere from four to eight hours to reach this part of the story, depending on your playstyle.

DHV Magellan Fast Travel Limitations

Fast traveling is restricted to places within the Chiral Network that you’ve already discovered, thereby reducing the number of reachable destinations.

While transporting goods that are related to organization is feasible, it’s important to note that abusing this method won’t result in a top rating, and a warning will be given prior to boarding.

On certain instances, you might find yourself unable to access the DHV Magellan’s travel system due to narrative-based explanations.

How To Unlock And Use Hot Spring Jumps

Advance the plot from Mission 026, ‘Retrieve the Old BB Pod from the Fortified Survivalists’ Outpost’, until you reach The Motherhood. Near this site lies the Miracle Spring, where you can engage to open its interface and choose ‘Hot Spring Leap’.

In addition to a single pre-existing Hot Spring at Heartman’s Lab, you’ll have to construct the next seven by yourself. You’ll require a PCC (Precision Construction Cube) and a Hot Spring Digger for this extended quest.

Miracle Hot Spring Jump Limitations

Jumps can only be made to any other Hot Spring, all of which are located in Australia.

At the Hot Spring, neither goods nor vehicles can pass through. Anything you’re carrying while jumping into the Hot Spring will be kept securely in a personal locker located at the same Hot Spring from which you jumped.

Pouch and equipped items will be retained.

How To Unlock And Use Transponders For Beach Jumps

As an enthusiast, I’d like to share that transponders serve as our gateways for executing beach jumps – a thrilling method of instantaneous travel through the enchanting expanse known as the Beach.

In order to construct a Transponder you simply need a PCC Level 2 and you are set.

Access the Transponder menu and select ‘Beach Jump’.

Transponder Beach Jump Limitations

Only jumps are possible to any location marked with a Transponder symbol, which also encompasses diverse facilities.

It’s not possible for goods and vehicles to traverse through the Beach. Anything you are transporting while performing a Beach jump will be stored securely in a private locker, which is located at the same Transponder station from where you leaped.
