‘Death Stranding 2’ Is Hideo Kojima’s Most Refined and Relentless Vision Yet

gizmodo.com Isaiah Colbert 2026-03-07 10:00:09

When Hideo Kojima—the man fashioned into a video game auteur out of his work on Metal Gear Solid—launched his debut title under the newly formed Kojima Productions in 2019, Death Stranding arrived shrouded in mystery and hype. Every Death Stranding trailer was full of cryptic imagery and spectral apparitions, and its stacked cast featuring Norman Reedus, Léa Seydoux, and Mads Mikkelsen set expectations sky-high. It was also the first title to come from the creator following a messy and public ex

When Death Stranding came out in 2019, I did what a lot of people apparently did: Played it for an hour, thought it was a bit weird, and didn't pick it up again until years later (in my case, 2022). So when a sequel to the game was announced, I wondered what Hideo Kojima could possibly do in a follow-up to his strangest game yet. After playing Death Stranding 2 for 40-plus hours, he did quite a bit. Death Stranding 2: On the Beach should have been called Death Stranding 2: Quality of Life, beca

However, Death Stranding 2 is still a very unique game with a lot of quirky elements gamers will have to wrap their heads around as they spend the next 50-plus hours walking across Australia, the setting for the sequel.

Samsung is trying to figure out why it lost Pixel 10 chip production, but we all know why

TL;DR Samsung is “intensively analyzing” Google’s switch from Samsung to TSMC for Pixel chip production. The move apparently came as a “shock” to Samsung last month. TSMC is generally considered superior to Samsung when it comes to chip manufacturing. Google has used Samsung to manufacture its Tensor smartphone chips since 2021, but the Pixel 10 series is widely tipped to be made by rival manufacturer TSMC.
