What is Death 2: On the Beach?
Death Stranding 2: On the Beach is a direct sequel to the 2019 original. It happened 11 months after UCA was born, when the world was connected, delivery had been automated, and a new faction was on the rise. I'm hesitant to describe what the game might or might not be, as it's full of island-level weirdness. You can watch the numerous trailers above to learn more about Death Stranding 2, including one Strong snake-shaped features. Here is the official description of the PlayStation store:
“The inspiring mission beyond human connections beyond UCA.
“Sam – with his companions – embark on a new journey to save humanity from extinction.
“Join them as they travel through a world plagued by otherworldly enemies, obstacles and troubled problems: Should we connect?
“Step by step, the legendary game creator hideo kojima has changed the world again.”
