Hideo Kojima's action game, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/death-stranding/" title="Death Stranding on the PlayStation 4">Death Stranding</a>, is getting a sequel.

The renowned video game creator, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/kojima-productions/">Kojima Productions</a>, formally announced at The Game Awards 2022 that work has begun on <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps5/death-stranding-2/">Death Stranding 2</a>.

Developers have yet to disclose its release date. However, they revealed that the game would debut on PlayStation 5. Kojima Productions also unveiled its teaser trailer during <a href="https://thegameawards.com/">The Game Awards 2022</a>. The <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iAB___ZxgmM">video</a> showed Norman Reedus and Lea Seydoux reprising their roles as Sam Porter Bridges and Fragile, respectively.

Like its <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/death-stranding/" title="Death Stranding on PC">predecessor</a>, Hideo Kojima took the helm in developing Death Stranding 2. He will serve as the upcoming game's producer, writer, designer, and director, the gaming studio said in a separate statement.

Hideo Kojima also attended The Game Awards 2022, which culminated on December 8. After presenting the trailer, he shared more details about Death Stranding 2's development. Kojima told the audience that he began writing the story for Death Stranding 2 a few months after the release of the first game. However, he said he had to rewrite "the whole thing from scratch" when the pandemic hit.

<q>I also don't want to predict more futures so I rewrote it,</q> Kojima added in jest. The Japanese game designer also said that, in addition to Death Stranding 2, he is working on a new game.

Before Kojima Productions made their announcement, there were speculations about a Death Stranding sequel. Last May, Norman Reedus told Kentucky-based LEO Magazine that they have "started the second one."

Death Stranding is Kojima's first major project following his highly publicized departure from KONAMI. The game was released first for PlayStation 4 in 2019, it was released on the PC in 2020.

Death Stranding became the title with the most nominations for The Game Awards 2019, including the Game of the Year category. It won the Best Game Direction Award. But it lost the Game of the Year award to <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/sekiro-shadows-die-twice/">Hidetaka Miyazaki's Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice</a>.

Death Stranding has playscores 8.7 on PlayStation 4 and 8.8 on the PC.
