I hope Death Stranding 2 is a smarter, leaner adventure

Death Stranding 2 should be an exercise in restraint. In many respects, that would be antithetical to the modern sequel – which expectations dictate must be a bigger, bolder, and brasher experience than that of its predecessor. Hideo Kojima has announced that he will expand his apocalyptic vision of the United States of America, and I'd quite like to see the director present a leaner, smarter, and sharper package. Kojima Productions announced Death Stranding 2 at The Game Awards 2022.
