Death Stranding 2: On the Beach

Death Stranding 2 is not just a sequel - it's an evolution. Kojima once again pushes the boundaries of storytelling, world-building, and emotional depth in gaming. This is a cinematic, meditative, and deeply human experience that challenges the norm and rewards those who embrace the unconventional.

Visually stunning and sonically captivating, every frame is crafted with intention. The performances are powerful, the narrative is layered, and the gameplay blends innovation with purpose. It's a rare title that makes you reflect not only on the world within the game but on the one outside of it as well.

Kojima doesn't play it safe - he creates something daring, emotional, and unforgettable. Death Stranding 2 is a monumental achievement in interactive storytelling.

A visionary journey - unlike anything else.

This has now become my favorite videogame of all time, dethroning the PS4/PS5 Spider-Man games. The story is so complicated to be unraveled in all its forms and yet so simple to understand. One of the most epic adventures in gaming history on the outside but a story of grief, sadness, love and sacrifice on the inside, moved by all these incredibly deep and powerful characters: Sam, Neil, Fragile, Tomorrow, and even supporting characters like Dollman, Tarman and Rainy have compelling and breathtaking backstories and development throughout the game. And in every single frame and line and scene you feel Hideo Kojima's genius and craziness which makes this game the best GOTY contender of 2025. Peak gaming experience🙌

I was looking forward to this game as soon as it was announced since I loved the first one so much, still beautiful graphics and an amazing story that drive me crazy having to wait for answers haha. I hope there may be a 3rd one due to the ending especially because I have a few more questions that need to be answered!

I did not expect one of the twists and I had an inkling about another, loved the inclusion of the hot springs and transponders along with more vehicle customization (seriously sticky cannons are a godsend and I wish they were in the first one!) that dance though? I was laughing so hard because I was not expecting it!

This is, not joking, one of the best gaming experiences I've had in the last 5 years, like the first game, the beginning had my attention engaged here and there with the story being intriguing and confusing, while being fully enthralled with the gameplay. Then you get like 4 hours in and can't stop playing, and the story goes from the most unhinged thing you can imagine to the most soul crushing moments that tear your heart out. The gameplay is even better than the last and with the added music player this easily makes the game one of my favorites of all time purely for being able to take in the scenery with amazing music. The game is truly a masterpiece worth playing as well as the first death stranding. Mr. Kojima I tip my hat to you sir, this game made me feel so much.

I understand those who don't like this game. You can love it or hate it, but you can't deny the uniqueness of it.

I have been playing it since day one and I can't put it down. There is always something new that makes you want to keep playing. A new ability, a new weapon, a new character or a cutscene that will leave you mesmerised. It will bring the story forward by answering questions but also giving you new mysteries that you want to find out immediately.

The world is huge, versatile and looks gorgeous. Probably the most incredible looking game when it comes to graphical fidelity.

The music is going to touch your soul, and I have been listening to some the songs even when not playing the game.

(Huge addition to the game that they added a playlist function where you can create playlists and listen to music any time while exploring the world)

I could go into so much more detail but I really don't want to waste your time. I don't know if you would like this one if you hated the first one. I liked the first one. I am in love with this one.

It's a masterpiece for those of us who are into this game. I hope you guys will enjoy it as much as I do. Real unique and unforgettable masterpiece that will stay with me for sure.
