What is Death Stranding 2: On the Beach?

*Death Stranding 2: On the Beach* is a direct sequel to the 2019 original, set 11 months after the birth of the UCA. The world has been connected, deliveries automated, and a new faction is emerging. The game is filled with the signature weirdness of Hideo Kojima, and you can get a glimpse of it in the extensive trailer above, which even features a character reminiscent of Solid Snake. Here's the official description from the PlayStation Store:

“Embark on an inspiring mission of human connection beyond the UCA. Sam—with companions by his side—sets out on a new journey to save humanity from extinction. Join them as they traverse a world beset by otherworldly enemies, obstacles and a haunting question: should we have connected? Step by step, legendary game creator Hideo Kojima changes the world once again.”
