If you’re eager to know more about Hideo Kojima’s Death Stranding, the countdown to the reveal has started.
The developer himself took to Twitter to reveal that the reveal will happen on PlayStation’s Twitch channel, and something is already going on, with handprints and cryptic whispers.
That being said, the actual reveal will happen on May 30 Japan time and when it’s still May 29 in the US and Europe.

This means that there is an eight-hour window between 7:00 AM PDT and 3:00 PM PDT in which the reveal could happen because, after that, it’d be May 30 in Europe. Of course, there’s a very solid possibility that it’ll simply happen when it turns Midnight in Japan, which would be at 7:00 AM PDT.
Recently, Kojima-san talked about the creation of the game at Tribeca Film Festival, while he also made a few comments on the state of development a few weeks ago.
You can read some semi-recent impressions by Head of Marketing and Communications Aki Saito and Sam’s actor Norman Reedus, and more by Guerrilla Games Managing Director Hermen Hulst.
For now, we know that Death Stranding is coming to PS4, and recently Kojima-san himself possibly teased a 2019 release. That being said, it was a rather vague tease and it could have meant something else. We might get to know more in a few hours.
