It’s possible that, while it’s still a 2025 release, Death Stranding 2 is being pushed back from its previously anticipated release window. With that said, Kojima has never narrowed down whether this will be an early or late 2025 release, so this wouldn’t be a public delay. In any case, it’s been confirmed that the studiohasa release date in mind, we’ll just have to wait and see what this is.

As well as going over the release date, the showcase also gave us some more Death Stranding 2 in-game footage.
