We had already woken up with the news that the composer Ludvig Forsell had posted a photo in the MUZA Kawasaki Symphony Hall after the first “post-COVID” recording. Given his status as audio director at Kojima Productions, it was understandable that the followers of Hideo Kojima’s work had begun to speculate about it (yes, we still do not officially know if what the composer was recording had to do with this new project , although the coincidence in time is revealing enough to make the connection shamelessly).
The first Death Stranding video emerged at E3 2016, when the game would not be released until the end of 2019, so although it seems that things are going to be long, we do not rule out new information for the following months. We’ll be alert.
