Hideo Kojima reveals temporary menu of Death Stranding 2, with curious options for the player

In another update on Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, Hideo Kojima shared a video of the game's main menu on his official account on the X platform. The image shows the character Sam Porter Bridges as background, alongside multiple navigation options, although Kojima himself stated that this is a temporary menu subject to changes until the release.

Among the options presented, one that caught attention is "Recap Death Stranding", suggesting a feature to recap the events of the first game. This option can be especially useful for new players who haven't experienced the original title or for those who need to remember the plot before diving into the sequel.

The release date for Death Stranding 2 is set for some time in 2025, with no specific date so far. The game will be initially exclusive to PlayStation 5 and will bring back familiar characters, such as Sam Porter Bridges (played by Norman Reedus), Fragile (Léa Seydoux), and Higgs (Troy Baker). Additionally, new faces join the cast, including Elle Fanning and Shioli Kutsuna.

Although the concrete release date and more details about the gameplay are still awaited, this small preview of the menu and the presence of well-known actors reinforce the expectations about the continuity of the plot from the first game, maintaining the peculiar universe created by Kojima.
