A user on 4Chan has leaked some interesting details about Death Stranding – what exactly the storyline is going to be, how the multiplayer will work, what we are going to see in E3 2018 trailer, and whether or not the game will release on PC?
One of the most anticipated games that will finally be shown at E3 2018 is sure enough Death Stranding, the next title from Hideo Kojima to be released exclusively on PlayStation 4.
While nothing concrete has been revealed about it and its story, and we wait for the first proper gameplay to show up at E3, it looks like the first details about what we’ll see at the even have already popped up on the Internet thanks to a supposed insider.
Among the spotlight of this information leak you’ll find a release window of 2020, and a launch later – perhaps one year – on PC as well. PvP is also a thing, apparently to be activated anytime crossing “timelines.”
“Tons of weapons, vehicles, gadgets and gear from multiple era’s, from clubs to single shot muskets to energy swords. The baby is something that exists as a singular, it is not something that is instanced each time you boot up the game. The baby is a single entity. He is what is causing the time distortions and dimensions crossing over, which is multiplayer.
When the community has reached the end of the game, there will need to be a global decision made to kill the baby and end DS multiplayer forever, or allow it to live and continue the multiplayer experience. Players in other games can do things at certain points in time that will have a butterfly effect in your game, this can happen both while you are actively playing or while the game is off. They can be positive or bad things (Stick or rope)
PVP can happen at any point if you and another player accidentally cross timelines while time traveling. When you die that timeline is closed forever, significant things that encapsulate that Sam’s story in that timeline will travel with you to the ocean floor before you re-emerge and continue in a new timeline. As you and other players pollute the ocean, it will cause sea-life to die and wash up on shore.
Early 2020 – Game got delayed internally. yes, it will be on PC at an undecided time after the PS4 release. Likely not for at least 12 months. Sony wants it exclusive entirely, the minimum contractual obligation is a year though. Well, see after that. None of that is set in stone yet.”
As for the trailer, we’ll see at E3 2018, it finally looks like it’ll be gameplay based.
“Haven’t seen the entire final cut yet. It will be a lot more of the same though. The trailer will end with Sam laying naked and lifeless on the beach. At this point, Kojima will take the stage, start the ps4 controller and the light coming on the controller will sync up with the light on Sam’s bracelet/handcuff. He will then stand up and we dive into gameplay.
This is done as a continuous cut, at the end of the gameplay section we time travel backwards to the start of the trailer. We will see part of the trailer play out from the perspective of the player. The music in the trailer is cut to will also sound as though it’s coming from off in the distance. If I can be honest with you, its cool as fucking hell.”
Death Stranding will be at Sony’s E3 2018 press conference together with Ghost of Tsushima, Spider-Man, and The Last of Us Part II.
