Death Stranding 2: On the Beach Set to launch in 2025

/

During the first State of Play stream for 2024, Sony Interactive Entertainment gave us an extensive look at Death Stranding 2: On the Beach. The sequel is now set to launch sometime in 2025 on the PS5.

Sam is back and with familiar faces as he takes on a similar journey beyond the US. The goal is the game but broad as he is now tasked to connect with the rest of the world through the network they’ve established in the US in the hopes to fight the unknown anomaly that is the Death Stranding. Norman Reedus, Léa Seydoux return and is joined by Elle Fanning and SHioli Kutsuna. Surprisingly enough, Troy Baker is also returning as his character Higgs which now rocks a new look with a crazy guitar weapon on hand.

The sequel embraces the game’s unique gameplay where players take the role of carrier in the hopes of connecting one human settlement to another in the hopes of surviving this post-apocalyptic world. The trailer highlights visually stunning scenery and looks like there are various methods for Sam and his group to go around the mysterious Death Stranding.

It’s our first good look at the game since it was announced last year. No release date was given or any other details but we can expect more from Kojima Productions throughout 2024.

This will be music to the ears of kids who grew up on the series, but for the uninitiated, there’s nothing quite like the Mario & Luigi games. Mario & Luigi Brothership does its best to appeal to a wide range of players with charming presentation and a strong new Battle Plug system, but not everyone will be enamored with its reflex-testing gameplay.

Life is Strange: Double Exposure Review - A Nostalgic Return That Falls Flat

Life is Strange: Double Exposure brings back Max Caulfield with new time-manipulation powers, but struggles to capture the original’s emotional weight. While the dual-timeline mechanic is engaging, the story’s weak twists, forgettable characters, and technical issues hold it back. A nostalgic revisit, but not a standout entry in the series.
