Hideo Kojima sees Death Stranding 2 : On the Beach as a cautionary tale.

The creator talks about the challenges of crafting a sequel to his singular delivery game.

Developing the game during the covid-19 pandemic inspired him to rewrite the tale.

Death Stranding 2 , meanwhile, has a greater focus on combat than the first , a feature that Kojima also partly attributed to Metal Gear’s popularity.

“I think we’re a little stronger,” he says of the world after pandemic lockdowns.

Part of the reason he's working on Physint is due to their desire to see another action-espionage game.
