"Genius" confirms that Metal Gear Solid 5 director is also working on Death Stranding 2: On the Beach
The latest trailer for Death Stranding 2: On the Beach has been generating a lot of discussion since its debut last week. One of the scenes that has captured viewers' imaginations is the return of the villainous Higgs, now decked out in clown make-up, as he battles robots that emit children's laughter. The dynamic and polished direction of the scene has attracted considerable attention, and this excellence is attributed to the significant addition of a new development team at Kojima Productions.
The second trailer for "DS2" is now available. This one is the Japanese subtitled version.
