Kojima Productions has shown off Death Stranding, and we finally have a better idea of what it is…kind of.

After Sony’s E3 presentation today, we have a clearer idea of what Death Stranding, first announced at E3 2016, is – or, at least, what it might be.

We see Norman Reedus venturing through what look like playable sections in the new trailer, with a lot of clambouring and walking. Hiking, I guess you could call it. He had something on his shoulder in one shot that might be a gun. There’s a definite stealth section later on, although describing it logistically would be…difficult.

At another point Norman is shown ripping off a toenail, which is..gross. And hey, is that Lea Seydoux popping up cutscene? And eating a weird bug? Between her and Mads, this game is going to be full of excellent European accents.

As usual, we’re coming away with more questions than answers. The game’s catchphrase seems to be ‘Give Me Your Hand In Death’, which, hmmm.

The game has had a wild production history after Kojima’s split from Konami, and we’re excited to see it coming along. We’re also very confused.

Keep an eye on our E3 conference time guide for all the upcoming conference times and stay on top of all the big E3 2018 announcements.
