The much-anticipated presentation for Death Stranding 2: On the Beach kicked off with an impressive ten-minute trailer, culminating in the exciting reveal of the game's official release date. Hideo Kojima's latest masterpiece is scheduled to hit the shelves on June 26, 2025, and will be available exclusively on the PS5.
In addition to the release date announcement, the developers shared that pre-orders will commence next Monday, March 17. Gamers can choose from three different editions: the standard digital edition priced at $70, the expanded edition at $80, and for those seeking something more exclusive, a collector's physical edition will be available for $230.
Describing the trailer as stunning would be an understatement. The visuals are breathtaking, and the atmosphere is further elevated by the top-tier soundtrack. Hideo Kojima has chosen a track by Woodkid that perfectly complements the trailer's mood.
As the trailer played, the live chat was buzzing with thousands of viewers drawing comparisons to iconic scenes from "Rumbling" in Attack on Titan and the character Snake from Metal Gear Solid. We were treated to glimpses of several new characters and hints at expansive action sequences. The intriguing tagline "We Shouldn't Have Connected" leaves us with more questions than answers, but we won't have to wait long to find out more this summer.
