Kojima then went on to mention that media reception for Death Stranding would presumably be mixed, with "pros and cons" of Death Stranding 's approach to the "strand game" genre. Much of that was actually reflected in the Death Stranding 's reviews, which were notoriously mixed from media outlets around the world. Regardless of how the "strand game" genre was realized in Death Stranding , Kojima ultimately believes in his vision of a "strand game" genre. A potential Death Stranding sequel could solidify that genre, assuming the developer has not been discouraged by Death Stranding 's recept

With PlayStation Blog having shown off several great screenshots thus far via its Share of the Week posts, 2020’s Share of the Year includes some of the best images taken in video games, according to PlayStation. With captures shared from The Last of Us 2 , Death Stranding , and deathstranding2World.Com other major releases, PlayStation fans clearly put a lot of time into photo modes last y

Between the world premieres and the awards being given out, video game enthusiasts have many reasons to tune in to The Game Awards every year. This year's event has the potential to be the biggest Game Awards yet, and it will be exciting to see how it all goes d

Of course, that kind of discourse from a game developer should be taken with a grain of salt, even from an auteur-like figure such as Hideo Kojima. More importantly, it means that Kojima Productions is committed to continuing/expanding the Death Stranding IP further. Rather than potentially working on a new or different IP like the Silent Hill rumor from a few weeks ago, Kojima Productions' next project may be an entry in or surrounding Death Stranding . Either that, or it's another "strand" type game that's similar conceptually, but could be closer to a Metal Gear -style g

Many gamers will be tuning in to The Game Awards 2019 to see which game won the coveted Game of the Year, but others will be tuning in for the world premieres. The Game Awards has gained a reputation for being an event where major new game announcements take place, with this year's event promising at least 10 world premiere reveals for gamers to look forward

Even with these best sellers at the top of the list, there are many more titles in the store to be discovered or remembered, at a fraction of the original cost. The ever-lasting Borderlands 3 is currently available for purchase at $38.99, a thirty-five percent discount on the original $59.99 price. Additionally, Red Dead Redemption 2 , which may also be coming to the Switch in the future , has a sixty-percent deal on its Ultimate Bundle, going for a mere $39.99 compared to the whopping $99.99 cost when not on sale. And underneath these titles, there are still over a thousand other on-sale games to be found in the Playstation St

This year, six games are competing to be crowned Game of the Year, with Control , Death Stranding , Resident Evil 2 , Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice , Super Smash Bros. Ultimate , and The Outer Worlds all up for the big prize. It's hard to say which game will walk away with the distinction of being named Game of the Year, but it should be noted that Death Stranding is nominated for the most awar

So while Shinkawa’s illustration isn’t a solid indication of what could be coming to Death Stranding 2 , it is possible that the sequel is in fact in development. Kojima Productions recently confirmed that it’s hiring for a new project, and Kojima himself has teased ideas for Death Stranding ’s potential followup ever since the game launched last November. On the other hand, it’s also possible that this version of the sequel was the big Kojima Productions project that recently fell apart . One can't say for sure until Kojima says otherw

The PlayStation Blog post also includes several great character portraits, including Doom Eternal ’s Doom Hunters and Final Fantasy 7 Remake ’s Cloud. A heavily edited shot of a Storm Trooper preparing to launch a rocket at Cal in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is another great picture included in the post, as it shows just how detailed the armor worn by the foe is. However, Xenolith3D’s portrait of Ellie stands out, as it showcases the level of detail in the character models of the award-winning The Last of Us

Arguably the closest thing the video game industry has to the Oscars or the Emmys is The Game Awards . Each year, a group of industry insiders and journalists come together to vote on which games should win in a variety of categories. The winners are announced in December at The Game Awards , which has been hosted by video game journalist Geoff Keighley since its inception in 2

In the end, there may be some gamers who aren't interested or already have the games on sale in the PlayStation Store. Those users shouldn't worry, because there will be a new rotation of deals and savings that starts in a few days on January

Regardless of what direction Kojima Productions decides to go in over the course of the next few years, that direction will likely be a good one. Hideo Kojima has crafted many of the most iconic video game stories and experiences of all time. That trend is likely to continue, and it is just as likely that gamers from all over the world will be going out in droves to check out whatever game **Hideo Kojima ** makes n
