20 Upcoming PS4 Exclusives You Can’t Afford To Miss

5. Death Stranding - Release TBA

Hideo Kojima knows how to build hype, and with the help of Sony his latest game is certainly doing just that. Details on what Death Stranding is are pretty obtuse, leading to a million fan theories that feature dissections of everything released. What’s clear is that Kojima has called in his celebrity friends Norman Reedus (Walking Dead), Mads Mikkelsen (Hannibal) and Guillermo del Toro (Pan’s Labyrinth) to appear in the game.

Death Stranding is an action game set in an open world environment, but specific gameplay details are nonexistent at this time. Sony will be keen to promote the game at every opportunity, but chances are that no one will be able to buy the game for quite some time. For much of 2016 Kojima was working out which game engine to use, finally settling on Guerrilla Games’ Decima. Having been the engine responsible for the gorgeous Killzone: Shadow Fall and Horizon Zero Dawn, it’s no surprise what has been seen so far of Death Stranding looks marvelous.
