The much-anticipated presentation for *Death Stranding 2: On the Beach* kicked off with an enthralling ten-minute trailer, culminating in the exciting reveal 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 exclusively available on the PS5.
In addition to the release date, the developers announced that pre-orders will begin on Monday, March 17. Gamers can choose from several options: the standard digital edition, priced at $70, the expanded edition at $80, and a deluxe collector's physical edition for $230.
Describing the trailer as stunning barely scratches the surface of its visual splendor. The soundtrack, masterfully chosen by Hideo Kojima, features a track by Woodkid that perfectly complements the trailer's atmosphere, elevating the experience to new heights.
As the trailer unfolded, thousands of viewers in the live chat drew parallels to iconic scenes from "Rumbling" in *Attack on Titan* and the legendary Snake from *Metal Gear Solid*. The footage offered glimpses of several new characters and teased epic action sequences. The mysterious tagline "We Shouldn't Have Connected" has sparked intrigue and countless questions, all of which we can expect to be answered when the game launches this summer.
