The highly anticipated big reveal for *Death Stranding 2: On the Beach* began with an impressive ten-minute trailer, culminating in the announcement of the game's official release date. Hideo Kojima's latest masterpiece is slated to hit the shelves on June 26, 2025, and will be available exclusively on the PlayStation 5.
In addition to the release date, the developers have shared exciting news about pre-orders. Starting next Monday, March 17, fans can secure their copies. The standard digital edition is priced at $70, while the expanded edition will cost $80. For those looking for something more special, a collector’s physical edition will be available for $230.
Describing the trailer as stunning doesn't do it justice. The visuals are breathtaking, and the atmosphere is further elevated by a top-tier soundtrack, featuring a track by Woodkid, handpicked by Hideo Kojima himself.
As the trailer played, thousands of viewers in the live chat drew parallels to "Rumbling" from *Attack on Titan* and the iconic Snake from *Metal Gear Solid*. The footage teased several new characters and hinted at epic action sequences. The intriguing tagline "We Shouldn't Have Connected" adds a layer of mystery, leaving fans eager for more answers come this summer.
