Get ready for the next chapter in the Death Stranding saga with *Death Stranding 2: On the Beach*, exclusively hitting the PS5 on June 24 if you opt for one of the pricier editions. The standard edition will follow closely behind on June 26. Developed by the innovative minds at Kojima Productions, this sequel promises to build on the unique world introduced in the 2019 original. It's available in three distinct editions: the standard edition, which you can grab in physical or digital format from Amazon, a digital deluxe edition, and an exclusive collector's edition packed with extras, available only through PS Direct. Below, we'll dive into the specifics of each edition, including pricing, where to buy, and what you get with each package.

What is Death Stranding 2: On the Beach?

*Death Stranding 2: On the Beach* is a direct sequel set 11 months after the formation of the UCA. The world has evolved with automated deliveries and the emergence of new factions. It's a narrative filled with Hideo Kojima's signature blend of surrealism and innovation. You can get a deeper look by watching the trailer, which teases 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.”
