Good news to PC gamers who want to cop game creator Hideo Kojima’s mind-boggling and yet-to-be-understood Death Stranding: the official Twitter account of Kojima Productions has just announced that the much-awaited (and much-hyped) game will be making its way to PC as well! According to the tweet, which you can read here, Death Stranding will be released for PC in early summer of 2020. 505 Games will be in charge of publishing.
Death Stranding will be released for the PlayStation 4 on November 8. Kojima Productions describes the game as such:
“Besieged by death’s tide at every turn, Sam Bridges must brave a world utterly transformed by the Death Stranding. Carrying the stranded remnants of the future in his hands, Sam embarks on a journey to reunite the shattered world one step at a time. What is the mystery of the Death Stranding? What will Sam discover on the road ahead? A genre defining gameplay experience holds these answers and more.”
Main character Sam Bridges is based on actor Norman Reedus, who also lent his voice to the character. Antagonist Cliff, on the other hand, is based on and is voiced by Danish actor Mads Mikkelsen. Below are the other characters and the corresponding personalities on which they are modeled from:
· Fragile – Lea Seydoux
· Mama – Margaret Qualley
· Deadman – Guillermo del Toro
· Heartman – Nicolas Winding Refn
· Die-Hardman – Tommie Earl Jenkins
· Higgs – Troy Baker
· Amelie – Lindsay Wagner
The game was developed using Guerilla Games’ Decima Engine. The game was previously described as an open-world action game “with some degree of freedom”. Death Stranding is Kojima’s first game since his much-publicized departure from Konami after working for the company for three decades. He has since formed an independent game studio, Kojima Productions, with Death Stranding being their first release.
