Death Stranding 2: On the Beach Gameplay
Death Stranding 2 will iterate over its predecessor's action adventure and walking simulator gameplay. Players will control Sam Porter Bridges as he acts as a courier delivering supplies in a post-apocalyptic world while connecting distant cities. There will be roads, vehicles, and ziplines to help players traverse the landscape faster and safer. However, outside the safety of the cities and pathways, Sam must be wary of the dangerous monsters known as Beached things(BTs) and raiders that roam the wastelands. Choose to be stealthy and avoid them entirely with the use of your detection gadgets, or fight them with both lethal and non-lethal weapons.
Death Stranding 2: On the Beach Story
Embark on an inspiring mission of human connection beyond the UCA. Sam, with companions by his side, sets out on a new journey to save humanity from extinction. Join them as they traverse a world beset by otherworldly enemies, obstacles and a haunting question: should we have connected?
The game features an ensemble cast including the returning Norman Reedus, Léa Seydoux, and Troy Baker to reprise their roles as Sam, Fragile, and Higgs, respectively. Joining them in the second installment of the franchise are actresses Elle Fanning and Shioli Kutsuna.
Sam Returns to Action as Part of the Drawbridge
Fragile has recruited Sam to "Drawbridge," a new civilian outfit she established that serves regions outside of the UCA (United Cities of America). They are funded by a mysterious figure behind the scenes who has access the means to generously fund the group with "capital and tech." As humanity still resides within the brink of collapse and extinction, Drawbridge’s motto, "Both stick and rope, to protect and connect. Together, for tomorrow" serves to instill hope and inspiration for a connected future of mankind.
Humanity is Still in Danger
Sam must reassume his responsibilities of reconnecting humankind due to the revelation that the Death Stranding is not over, and humanity continues to be on the brink of extinction. The UCA has been connected throughout America thanks to his previous effects, and now he must do so again for the rest of the world. However, the UCA refuses to expand its borders, but rather wants to bring new regions into their network, providing an interconnected global reach with them at the cornerstone.
Drawbridge’s mission is to connect regions outside of the UCA with Fragile as the acting commander, whereas Sam will be on the ground doing the legwork. Fragile’s statement of "It’s the same deal as America. The people here are all spread out. Cut off from one another" implies that Sam will be tasked with bringing the world together across different countries and regions, but no other country has yet been confirmed besides his first mission in Mexico.
