The much-anticipated presentation for *Death Stranding 2: On the Beach* began with a captivating ten-minute trailer, culminating in the exciting announcement of the game's official release date. Visionary game designer Hideo Kojima has confirmed that his latest masterpiece will hit the shelves on June 26, 2025, and it will be available exclusively on the PS5.
In addition to the release date, the developers shared that pre-orders for *Death Stranding 2: On the Beach* will commence next Monday, March 17. Gamers can choose from three different editions: the standard digital edition priced at $70, the expanded digital edition for $80, and for those looking for something more tangible, a collector's physical edition will be available for $230.
Describing the trailer as merely stunning doesn't do it justice. The visuals are breathtaking, and the atmosphere is further enriched by a top-tier soundtrack, featuring a track by Woodkid, selected by Hideo Kojima himself.
As the trailer unfolded, thousands of viewers in the live chat drew parallels to iconic scenes from "Rumbling" in *Attack on Titan* and the legendary Snake from *Metal Gear Solid*. The trailer offered a sneak peek at new characters and hinted at expansive action sequences. The intriguing tagline, "We Shouldn't Have Connected," only adds to the mystery and anticipation surrounding the game. Fans won't have to wait long for answers, as the full experience will be unveiled this summer.
