Death Stranding 2 will feature in-game concerts and more

Hideo Kojima has always been a unique director, with the video game creator often experimenting with and exploiting the medium itself in many different ways. It seems as though Hideo is set to go ‘full Kojima’ with Death Stranding 2, including in-game concerts and a story-affecting photo mode.

As part of Tokyo Game Show, Kojima and co. hosted a lengthy sit-down discussion in which the director offered new and interesting details on the upcoming Death Stranding 2.

As with the first game, DS2 won’t be a typical stealth-thriller shooter, with the game said to include a photo mode which goes all-out on poses/animations – so much so that the mechanic has been implemented into the narrative and will reportedly affect the story in some way – though we of course don’t yet know how.

Another interesting tidbit from the discussion seemed to suggest that DS2 will include in-game concerts; something which we have seen in various Remedy Entertainment titles such as Control and Alan Wake 2.

Death Stranding was a weird game, but it’s safe to say that Kojima is going all-out with the sequel. It’ll be highly interesting to see what he’s cooking up.
