Sony and Kojima Productions have officially confirmed asynchronous multiplayer in Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, continuing the innovative “social strand system” from the original. Crucially, these online features won't require a PlayStation Plus subscription.
The PlayStation Store description reveals players will uncover roads, bridges, and other structures built by other players. These interactive elements unlock after connecting different game regions, encouraging shared exploration and collaboration.
Hideo Kojima will be at SXSW on March 10, 2025, revealing more about the game's mechanics, innovations, and story. Recent updates confirm the Death Stranding 2 trailer is in final editing, with music playing a key role in the narrative.
Mark your calendars! Death Stranding 2: On the Beach launches exclusively on PlayStation 5 at the end of 2025. This highly anticipated sequel builds on the original's unique interactive elements while adding new features to enthrall both veterans and newcomers.
