Sony and Kojima Productions have officially confirmed asynchronous multiplayer in Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, continuing the series' signature "social strand system" from the original game. Crucially, these online features won't require a PlayStation Plus subscription.
The PlayStation Store description reveals players will discover roads, bridges, and other structures built by other players as they explore. These interactive elements unlock after connecting different game regions, encouraging shared exploration and collaboration.
Hideo Kojima will appear at SXSW on March 10, 2025, offering further details on mechanics, gameplay innovations, and narrative. Recent updates highlight the near-completion of Death Stranding 2's official trailer, emphasizing music's role in enhancing the story.
Death Stranding 2: On the Beach launches exclusively on PlayStation 5 in late 2025. This highly anticipated sequel builds upon the original's unique interactive elements while introducing new features to engage both veterans and newcomers. Stay tuned for more updates!
