Death Stranding is an action game set in an open world. Hideo Kojima describes the new title as “a completely new type of action game”.
The story follows characters living in isolation where the aim is for the player to reconnect isolated cities and a fragmented society.
The storyline and gameplay are designed in a way where everything is bound together by strands or connections.
Playing as Sam Porter Bridges, you will seek to bridge the divides in society, creating new “strands” with other players.
Kojima said: “Through your experience playing the game, I hope you’ll come to understand the true importance of forging connections with others.”
With big-name voice actors such as Norman Reedus and Mads Mikkelsen, there has been a huge amount of buzz surrounding this game.
