Death Stranding Twitch Takeover Hints At Impending Reveal

Game director Hideo Kojima recently began teasing an impending announcement for Death Stranding, suggesting a reveal on May 30. That tease came from a Japanese account, so for those in the US it may come tomorrow instead. Those teases weren't terribly clear on where to watch, but now we have a much better idea.

The PlayStation Twitch channel has had a full Death Stranding makeover, complete with a banner for the game and the title, "Death Stranding: Tomorrow Is In Your Hands." Appropriately enough, the placeholder video while we await the stream shows various handprints appearing and then vanishing. Sometimes the handprints stay static long enough to see snippets of video playing behind them.

It's all very vague and eerie, but that's par for the course for the mind-bending game from Kojima. Previous trailers have been similarly odd, and the fan community has already begun speculating about what it could all mean.

This stream puts a Death Stranding reveal a few weeks ahead of E3 2019. Sony is officially skipping the event, but promised it would be "exploring new and familiar ways to engage our community in 2019." Part of that has been its new State of Play streams that debut new game announcements and trailers. This Twitch takeover appears to be another avenue for Sony to show its wares without a big trade show press conference.

Before he entered the ring, his video package played a 16-bit cutscene that was very reminiscent of the game, featuring a yellow and red disembodied head, which is totally a knock at the New Japan Pro Wrestling's logo--a company Omega wrestled for--explaining Omega left all his friends and now, he's all alone. This includes a silhouette of Omega's former tag team partner, Kota Ibushi. You can check out the video for yourself below. The sound effects and dialogue from the end of that section are taken directly from Undertale. After the video package ended, Omega entered wearing a Sans mask, while Megalovania--the song from the game--played in the arena. Surprisingly, this worked incredibly well as entrance music for one of t...
