Hideo Kojima is teasing a new Death Stranding trailer on Twitter. This trailer is expected to be shown at Sony’s press conference at E3 2018. Kojima took to the social media platform to share pictures of himself editing Death Stranding and share some of his thoughts on editing games over the years:
When I 1st used the digital edit machine 25 yrs ago, the uncompressed wasn't affordable & took for hours just to wipe A to B role as temp render. Renting out the studio w/uncompressed edit machine & operator was the only choice. Today you can do real time edit 4K footage at home. pic.twitter.com/rqICqbMa6C

Unlike making games, the editing can be completed only by myself with no stress, and it is refreshing and enjoyable to proceed with my own pace and sense. Only con is that I have to get used to the new machine. pic.twitter.com/Qp0KcsR1zG

Death Stranding may be the most interesting title heading into E3 2018. The Kojima Productions game was first announced back at E3 2016 with a strange teaser trailer that hooked everyone at the expo in.
Since its announcement, Death Stranding has put out two more trailers that have kept that intrigue intact going into this year’s Electronic Entertainment Expo.
The first trailer gave us our first look at the characters that Mads Mikkelsen and Guillermo del Toro would be playing. Mikkelsen appears to be one of the main antagonists while del Toro’s role still remains ambiguous.
The second trailer, shown at The Game Awards 2017, showcased Norman Reedus’ character in what was the longest trailer we’ve seen yet of the highly anticipated Kojima title. Reedus’ character, revealed to be named Sam, will be our main protagonist throughout the course of the story.
Hideo Kojima explained how death will work in Death Stranding with Marty Sliva of IGN. According to Kojima:
“So as you saw in the trailer, you saw the crater, and when you come back, it’s still there. Most games would’ve taken you back to before the crater was made. So depending on the player, you might have a lot of craters all over the place — depends on each player. Death will never pull you out of the game”
Death Stranding has been confirmed to be at E3 2018. For all of the conference times and confirmed titles for this year’s expo, click here.
