So, yesterday he tweeted (after a long absence from twitter) about his new concept.



This part of it kinda looks space related:

But now, he just tweeted another thing:



and If you zoom in...

Looks like a spaceship right? Wait, what's that over there?

BRIDGES (?)

Also, "LANDING SHIP" ??

Yeah, it looks like "Bridges". Hopefully he makes Death Stranding 2 with more of a focus on gameplay than story. I just want to build shit.

New-ish IP set in the same universe. The time vortex stuff could take the story in a million places.

Or the concept art isn't necessarily meant to reflect the content of the new game. Maybe Shinkawa just drew a spaceship as an example for whatever concept he and Kojima were talking about.

I thought the story ended with Death Stranding. Plus space ships could mean anything like a new game. I don't see space ships being used in Death Stranding.

Will he finally hire an editor or better yet a writer? His gameplay ideas and overall premises are fucking amazing, but then the characters speak, and it all goes to shit. Please for the love of god hire a writer, dude.

Death Stranding wasn't just one of the best games this generation for me, but one of the best things of my life. And the best part of the game was its addictive gameplay for me, the part that lots of people hated it!
But really doubt we'll DS2, at least this soon. Maybe a small side project, but not a huge sequel.

I loved Death Stranding. But, I would prefer something new and a space game would be right up my ally. I don't want Kojma's brain wasted churning out sequels.

Death Stranding is right up there with MGSV and FROM titles as having the best gameplay of the generation.

I think a sequel has massive potential. But I have to ask myself if the market is there for more at the same budget?

No chance. Death Stranding massively underformed. He will try to make a title that appeals to a larger crowd next time.

I wouldn't want a sequel because of how the game ended, but another game in the universe (maybe even around the time of the stranding) would be great

That's not my read. Market/shout out his old game, releasing on PC soon, while teasing his new project.

Anyway I'd be 100000000000000000% in on a Koji Space Opera.

Give me Death Stranding prequel. Not open world, but more like a wide linear gameplay. Definitely a horror game with a ton of different BTs.

That would be interesting. I loved DS gameplay and its open world aspects, but like to play a linear prequel with action/stealth gameplay with story about first days of the incident.

The space ship is also kinda whale/dolphin-like in shape. Definitely Death Stranding related, but this is potentially some unused concept art that he particularly liked and is riffing on for a completely different project.

I'd really love if someone else could write Kojima's stories and just let him design the weird gameplay ideas. DS was great except when the story got in the way, also I had my fill of that game by the time they introduced ziplines (which made the game boring cause it just became all about ziplines)

Or, you know, he's just showing random stuff. Like he often does.

Remember when Silent Hill was teased via Kojima Pro tweets? Yeah, sometimes pics are just that.

When was the last time Kojima actually did something sneaky like this anyway?

Not sure how true this is. You couldn't build ziplines until you brought a region online. So the first trek to a new area was still treacherous and fun.

I bet his next game will be nothing like Death Stranding.

He seems like the type of creator that wants to try new things all the time for better or worse.
