According to various rumors, Hideo Kojima’s next game is exclusive to Xbox. Others claim that Kojima must be revived PT and make a Silent Hills game with Konami and PlayStation. There have even been some claims that the Metal Gear Solid the creator could return to the franchise where he became known. However, according to Norman Reedus, a friend of Hideo Kojima and protagonist of Kojima’s latest game, Kojima Productions is working on Death Stranding 2.
Talking to reporters at a round table for The walking Dead Season 11, Reedus said, “I think we’ll do a second one Stranded Death“, before noticing that Kojima and PlayStation are in negotiations over the sequel.
Now, it’s worth noting that Reedus could be referring to the next one Director’s cut, but if it is, it is properly confused, as the expanded and improved version of the PS4 game for PS5 is not in negotiations, but will be released next month. That said, although Reedus is unlikely to refer to the Director’s cut, is is a possibility.
At the time of posting, none of the parties involved (Norman Reedus, Hideo Kojima or PlayStation) have commented on any of this. If that changes, it will also change history with new details. Meanwhile, grab it all with a grain of salt.
For those who don’t know: Stranded Death was released in 2019 as a PS4 exclusive, but from 2020 it is also available for PC. Depending on the platform, the game has an 82 or 86 on Metacritic, two scores that don’t call division, but that’s exactly what it was, with many giving the game perfect scores, while others slapped it. As of July 2021, it has sold more than five million copies and perhaps predicted the future.
“The kernel of Stranded death is his slow-burning story that creates classic science fiction with weird, old fiction, as well as fundamental ideas and perspectives for writers and visionaries like Kobo Abe and Franz Kafka, “reads an excerpt from our brilliant review of the game “. Metal Gear Solid, the story of Stranded Death is a complicated multi-layered narrative that will make you feel lost but never lost, and will give you back your patience with groundbreaking revelations and a remarkable intertwining of intimate and personal moments with an exploration of life’s most important questions. . And the vehicle for all of this is Kojima’s storytelling style, which evokes his past work, but also makes him evolve. “
