To say thatDeath Strandingis one of Sony ’s most extremely foreknow biz is an understatement , with the new PS4 single represent the victorious yield of Hideo Kojima to gaming . This time , Kojima ’s newest game make it as the flagship title for Kojima Productions , with the studio apartment headway now completely unattached from his former stomping grounds at Konami . Up to this full stop , Death Strandinghas been beleaguer and show off several times , with every subsequent lagger being deconstructed by fans . And now , there ’s yet another gameplay trailer to peruse through .
When first denote , the secret early image and teasers forDeath Strandingwere somewhat unintelligible … or , in other tidings , they were a Kojima secret plan . And , while theMetal Gear Solidfranchise — a series which Kojima birthed , nurtured , and preened throughout multiple technical eras of gaming — was also frequently abstract and bizarre , its basic framework pass on a stealing / action hybridized gameplay that was at least accessible to most , at a glance .

dying Stranding , on the other hand , appears well mirky in its themes , but recent rumors of its plot mechanics seem challenging , foreign , and hard to compare to previous games . Those expectations were determine from the earliest images of a naked Norman Reedus , with film producer Guillermo Del Toro stand in a limbo - like obsess deathscape clutching a babe in fear ; all of these odd visions run Kojima fan into speculation frenzy , stick with every nugget of news about the secret plan . Now , with fresh gameplay footage ( above ) , rooter can develop a better melodic theme of what to anticipate fromDeath Stranding .
In an extended eight minute of arc house trailer , Kojima finally bring out a few meager example of apparent gameplay , in between more puzzling and strangely disturb imagery . The baby - in - the - windpipe return as a Death Stranding motive , but a few scraps of duologue and additional characters pop up into the hoary post - apocalyptic landscape . Reedus ' character is scene sail through rivers , scale slew , and hiking through desolate terrain , carrying a few unlike clutches of load ; in one tantrum , he has a box-shaped knapsack , another shows him carrying what looks likea tightly - wrapped beat body , and in another he has a XII or so box precariously tie to him . In one scene , he even gets tumbled by the surf and lose all his belongings . Will the secret plan be hard focussed on puzzle from point A to point B with some kind of loot ?
Aside from these scene , we at least get a good look at the strange entities floating , fading , and hover throughout the airwave . An invisible brute invades a cave with Reedus , leaving overgrowth in their handprints in the mud , until another character present up and warns Reedus not to make a strait . This newcomer is wearing whole dissimilar wearable — Reedus wears gear that looks build to withstand the elements , while his raw friend has a black cap with stacks of spike , imprinted with the word " fragile " across the back . Actually , Reedus ' jacket has the parole " porter " on its berm ; is this a description of his role , contain materials through the rough surroundings ? Or is this his grapheme ’s name ?
away from that , the two fictional character ' insistence on preserve quiet , even quickly handle their mouths when in the comportment of the dangerous creatures , may imply that sound and stealth will be an important car-mechanic in the game . Interestingly , this is fairly reminiscent of therecent horror filmA Quiet Place .
As expected , theDeath Strandingtrailer skimps on real answer , but at least we can now get a humble glimpse of what the game itself seem like .
