Hideo Kojima, the legendary creator of Death Stranding and Metal Gear Solid, is known for his games that explore possible scenarios for our collective future. However, recent events have forced the game director to think more deeply about his own future and the fate of Kojima Productions after his death.
Kojima Productions has announced the Death Stranding World Strand Tour 2, a large-scale world tour to celebrate the release of the long-awaited sequel Death Stranding 2: On the Beach. The tour will cover 12 cities around the world and will begin on 8 June in Los Angeles, two weeks before the game's release on PlayStation 5.
The legendary game designer Hideo Kojima proves once again that his imagination has no limits. In the latest episode of his KOJI10 radio show, the author of Metal Gear Solid and Death Stranding shared several crazy concepts for future games. The most striking of them is the "forgetting game", in which the character loses skills and knowledge if the player postpones the game for a long time.
Death Stranding 2: On the Beach has officially gone gold, and ahead of its release in June 2025, the developers have shared details about the new game mechanics. One of the most interesting novelties is the day and night cycle, which not only decorates the world but also adds new tactical opportunities for players.
Death Stranding 2: On the Beach is getting closer to release. The PlayStation 5 exclusive offers players two modes - Quality with a focus on detail and Performance mode with a smooth 60 frames per second, so everyone can choose the optimal balance between beauty and performance.
After a long wait, Death Stranding 2: On the Beach has officially gone gold, meaning that the development of the main version of the game is complete and Kojima Productions has submitted the master copy for production. The release exclusively for PlayStation 5 will take place on 26 June 2025, and owners of the Digital Deluxe Edition will be able to start playing the game on 24 June.
Death Stranding 2: On the Beach promises to be much bigger than its predecessor. According to journalists who have already played for about 30 hours, this is only 40% of the total story, which suggests that the main campaign can take up to 75 hours to complete.
While fans are preparing for the release of Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, Hideo Kojima shared some interesting details about the future of the franchise. The legendary developer already has a concept for the third part, but he is not going to develop it personally.

Hideo Kojima and Sony are preparing a special gift for their fans: a unique DualSense gamepad will be available on PS5 on 26 June alongside the release of Death Stranding 2: On the Beach. Pre-orders start on 22 May, and this is a must-have for collectors and fans of the series.
Even the legendary Hideo Kojima admits that the release of Grand Theft Auto 6 forces publishers to carefully plan their launch dates.
While A24 is working on the film adaptation of the cult game Death Stranding, details about the upcoming film are still scarce.
