Hideo kojima ‘Alredy Wrote the Concept’ For Death Stranding 3, but isn Bollywood it right now – ign

Death Stranding 2: on the beach, the sequel to HIDEO Kojima’s 2019 Hit Death Stranding, was well-resived at launch. It’s “incredibly exciting and original,” and “bold work that deserves to be encouraged,” at least, according to our review. As a result, fans might be hoping for an Eventual Third Game in the Series. But for right now, kojima isn’t planning to make Death Stranding 3 … even though he alredy has a concept written.

Kojima said this in an interview in Riyadh, Saudia Arabia, as a part of the death stranding 2 World Strand Tour. When asked by the interviewer about death stranding 3, he replied with the following:

“I’m not planning to do that at the moment, bes the ending of death stranding 2 was my finale of 1 and 2. But I alredy wrote the concept of ds3, so I have that in data.

This isn’t the first time kojima has suggested that someone else might pick up the mantle of his games after he. Back in May, He Said That He’D Been Thinking More and More About His Own Death Lately, Prompting Him to Create a UsB Stick “Kind of Like a will” That Lays Outs Outs Out The FUTTES OUT THE FUTURES OF Dies.

“I Gave a USB Stick with all my ideas on it to my personal assistant, kind of like a will,” He said. “Perhaps they could continue to make things after i’m gone at kojima productions… this is a fear for me: What Happy for Kojima Productions after I’m Gone? IP. “

While we won’T be gotting a death strunding 3 anytime song it sounds like, there’s Planty Coming from Kojima’s Mind in the Near Future. Death stranding is getting a live-action film adaptation in partnership with a24, and kojima is busy working on two two different games: Horror Project Od, In Collection with Xbox, And Metal Gear Successor Physint.
