Death Stranding 2: On the Beach Will Feature a Recap of the First Game

As a seasoned gamer with over three decades of gaming under my belt, I can’t help but feel a sense of nostalgia and excitement upon hearing about the upcoming sequel to one of the most unique experiences I’ve ever had in gaming – Death Stranding 2: On the Beach. It’s been a while since I first ventured into the post-apocalyptic world of the first game, but I remember it vividly, much like the taste of my first virtual pizza from Pac-Man days.


The Death Stranding video game series by Kojima Productions, which has just one title under its belt so far, is set to release its second installment, titled Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, in 2025. With so much happening in the first game, it can be challenging to recall all the details. However, director Hideo Kojima has announced that the sequel will include a recap feature for players’ convenience.

In Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, the main menu offers an option that’s currently temporary but provides a recap for new players starting with the sequel. Sam “Porter” Bridges reappears in this installment, teaming up with DHV Magellan to expand connections beyond North America.

Not only do old favorites such as Fragile and Heartman make a comeback, but we also welcome some fresh faces onto the scene – Rainy, Tarman, Dollman, and Tomorrow. For more information on these new characters, check it out here.

The sequel to “Death Stranding,” titled “Death Stranding 2: On the Beach,” is slated for release on PlayStation 5. Although a specific launch date hasn’t been set yet, creator Hideo Kojima has hinted that it will be unveiled next year. Keep an eye out for further announcements!

This screen is still very much temporary.
