Death Stranding 2: On the Beach

Death Stranding 2 is not just a sequel - it's an evolution. Kojima once again pushes the boundaries of storytelling, world-building, and emotional depth in gaming. This is a cinematic, meditative, and deeply human experience that challenges the norm and rewards those who embrace the unconventional.

Visually stunning and sonically captivating, every frame is crafted with intention. The performances are powerful, the narrative is layered, and the gameplay blends innovation with purpose. It's a rare title that makes you reflect not only on the world within the game but on the one outside of it as well.

Kojima doesn't play it safe - he creates something daring, emotional, and unforgettable. Death Stranding 2 is a monumental achievement in interactive storytelling.

A visionary journey - unlike anything else.

This has now become my favorite videogame of all time, dethroning the PS4/PS5 Spider-Man games. The story is so complicated to be unraveled in all its forms and yet so simple to understand. One of the most epic adventures in gaming history on the outside but a story of grief, sadness, love and sacrifice on the inside, moved by all these incredibly deep and powerful characters: Sam, Neil, Fragile, Tomorrow, and even supporting characters like Dollman, Tarman and Rainy have compelling and breathtaking backstories and development throughout the game. And in every single frame and line and scene you feel Hideo Kojima's genius and craziness which makes this game the best GOTY contender of 2025. Peak gaming experience🙌

What an unbelievable masterpiece by Hideo Kojima and Kojima Productions.

Death Stranding 2: On the Beach delivers on all levels. This is easily one of the best games I have ever played and probably contender for one of the best games ever created. Are you meant to know exactly what's going on? No. It's confusing, surreal, mesmerising and so damn outrageously beautiful that it doesn't even matter.

For anyone contemplating DS2 contemplate no more. Everything has improved since DS1. The combat is more fluid, Reedus continues his masterful performance as Sam Bridges and the graphics are truly spectacular.

What an incredible game.

I understand those who don't like this game. You can love it or hate it, but you can't deny the uniqueness of it.

I have been playing it since day one and I can't put it down. There is always something new that makes you want to keep playing. A new ability, a new weapon, a new character or a cutscene that will leave you mesmerised. It will bring the story forward by answering questions but also giving you new mysteries that you want to find out immediately.

The world is huge, versatile and looks gorgeous. Probably the most incredible looking game when it comes to graphical fidelity.

The music is going to touch your soul, and I have been listening to some the songs even when not playing the game.

(Huge addition to the game that they added a playlist function where you can create playlists and listen to music any time while exploring the world)

I could go into so much more detail but I really don't want to waste your time. I don't know if you would like this one if you hated the first one. I liked the first one. I am in love with this one.

It's a masterpiece for those of us who are into this game. I hope you guys will enjoy it as much as I do. Real unique and unforgettable masterpiece that will stay with me for sure.

Less than half way through the game it was already a masterpiece but after completing the game it is beyond perfection! I had come a long way from giving up 3 times the first Death Stranding & getting convinced on my 4th run to keep going it "gets better", oh were they correct. Playing both games back to back was an amazing experience seeing what change & what got better. Almost everything got better or upgrade by ALOT! Last time I felt like I played perfection was Elden Ring & before that Resident Evil Village. I fell in love with Elden Ring that I ended up getting platinum because I just couldn't get enough of the feeling it gave me. Now I finished Death Stranding 2 this morning and will continue my journey to platinum. Can only imaging what's next for Hideo to make...
