Sony and Kojima Productions have officially confirmed asynchronous multiplayer in Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, continuing the unique “social strand system” from the original. Crucially, these online features won't require a PlayStation Plus subscription.
The PlayStation Store description reveals players will encounter roads, bridges, and other structures built by other players. These interactive elements unlock as you connect different game regions, encouraging shared exploration and collaboration.
Hideo Kojima will be at SXSW on March 10th, 2025, promising further details on mechanics, gameplay innovations, and story. Recent updates indicate the Death Stranding 2 trailer is nearing completion, with music playing a key role in the narrative.
Death Stranding 2: On the Beach launches exclusively on PlayStation 5 at the end of 2025. This highly anticipated sequel builds upon the original's innovative interactive elements while adding new features to engage both veteran and new players. Expect more updates soon!
