Recently, the renowned Japanese game designer posted some pictures that seem to give a glimpse of what Death Stranding fans can expect in the future. In the post, we can see a motion capture stage adorned with a Death Stranding backdrop and surrounded by huge LEDs. The stage is set up for a scene with an actor performing amidst large prop boulders, all set against a backdrop of snowy mountains and frightening BTs sneaking in the distance. A small campsite with multiple sets can also be seen there. But the most mysterious part of the whole set is a large, enigmatic figure on the left side, whose identity is yet to be disclosed.

Death Stranding 2: A movie adaptation
Death Stranding 2 has been officially confirmed by Kojima Productions at the Game Awards 2022. Kojima also unveiled a four-minute trailer for Death Stranding 2. Although this trailer didn’t give us any glimpses of gameplay, it gave us an insight into how the game is going to be. Hideo Kojima said about the trailer, “You’ve just seen the trailer, and I’ve put a lot of things inside, so I want you to talk about it and find details in it.”
Fragile and an older Sam Bridges were seen in the announcement, and Kojima revealed that he took the opportunity during the COVID-19 pandemic to rewrite the entire script from scratch. Although there isn’t any official confirmation yet, according to one of the actors involved in the project, Norman Reedus, it might be coming in early 2024.

Also, there have been speculations that the Death Stranding movie will be coming soon. The film was officially announced in December 2022. Although Hideo Kojima will be “deeply involved” in the film, unlike the game, he won’t be directing it.
Just to be clear, I am deeply involved in producing, supervising, plotting, look, design and content of the film adaptation of DS, just not in charge of directing.
