News Death Stranding 2: On the Beach Gameplay Showcases Combat, Stealth, and New BTs Check out some of the new bosses that Sam will have to fight, including a giant mech launching cars with its octopus-like tendrils. Posted By Ravi Sinha | On 09th, May. 2025 Kojima Productions’ Death Stranding 2: On the Beach received tons of new details courtesy of various hands-on previews (which spent a hefty 30 hours with the game). However, there’s also new gameplay, highlighting several features and improvements. Check out a 15-minute showcase below, courtesy of Famitsu. The visuals are immediately striking, especially the mountain ranges, which Sam can roughly navigate (and observe phenomena like landslides). Other hazards like a duststorm and sudden water level changes must also be dealt with carefully. Then there’s the combat, with headshots triggering brief slow-motion for lining up your next shot. If you’re more keen on sneaking, non-lethal bolas guns are available. Alternatively, chuck an electric rod at an enemy, dealing damage in an area to stun them (though it will make noise and draw attention). The new BT, Watcher, is also briefly showcased, visually spotting Sam and pursuing him through the tar. There’s also a giant desiccated skull with tendrils that serves as a boss (with a weak point that’s tricky to hit) and an octopus-like mech that chucks cars at you. Death Stranding 2: On the Beach is available on June 26th for PS5. Head here to learn more about other new features or check out its limited edition DualSense.
