'Death Stranding' and What it Offers

Hideo Kojima swore off developing horror games after his work with Konami to bring the famous scary game franchises to the world. However, that is not entirely the case with his work on "Death Stranding," a hauntingly good game, making gamers crave more of what the brilliant Japanese game director and creator has to offer.

It is one of the most successful game releases in the world, especially as it centers on independent development and publishing, for multiple platforms. The game which initially launched on the console platform was recently made available for the PC in 2020, featuring a Conan O'Brien cameo that was never seen before.

Gamers get a mix of thriller, suspense, action, drama, and more to what "Death Stranding" has to offer, making it one of the most prominent titles in the present. It left the industry craving for more from Kojima Productions, but despite offering a sequel game, it remains unavailable to gamers, three years later.

There is a silver lining now though, as Kojima's game is available for free via the Epic Games Store.
