Death Stranding’s first event will be a 49-minute gameplay demo, showcased at 11:30pm PST on September 11th. For this particular showcase, Kojima shared more about what the demo will contain. According to a recent post on the creator’s Twitter account, the lengthy footage will feature one of the game’s first missions, so audiences can better understand “the basic flow” of Death Stranding.
In a subsequent tweet, Kojima elaborated further. The 49-minute gameplay demo is meant to answer questions many still have about the game, though Kojima would much rather leave everything as a surprise. In the post providing this bit of insight, Kojima also attached a personal message to fans. See it linked below:
DS is a totally new game and I’ve revealed many info(hint) so as a game creator I’d like you to play without any info and enjoy the surprise by discovering yourself. But since many people say they don’t know what’s the game is about, I decided to introduce the basic gameplay. pic.twitter.com/txoJeHS9QG
