A new report claims a Death Stranding sequel was intended to be a Google Stadia exclusive, and past co꧟mments and reports surrounding Kojima Production🐷s paint an interesting picture.

Earlier today, published a report which claimed Death Stranding 2 was originally intended to be exclusive to Google Stadia. The report, which only cites a single source, claimed that the sequel would ditch the online functions of the original Death Stranding, which is ultimately what caused Google Stadia general manager Phil Harrison to cancel the deal to fund the sequelᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤🍸⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚ.

also claimed Kojima Productions was developing a horror game for Google Stadia. A Death Stranding sequel was never mentioned in the report, but instead claimed Kojima had pitched an "episodic horror game" to Google, which was eventually blocked by Harrison in 2020.

This report lines up ⭕with previous comments from Kojima. In 2020 in an interview with (and trꩲanslated by GamesRadar+), Kojima revealed that a "big project" had just recently fallen through. Kojima's comments of a game being cancelled relatively recently in 2020 line up with VGC's report, which also claimed a Kojima-led game had been cancelled that year.

Obviou🅷sly, Koji♌ma never made mention of Google being the one to cancel the project, or that the project was either an episodic horror game or a Death Stranding sequel. 

Then there's the debacle surrounding Overdose. Earlier this year in June, a new report claimed knowledge of a new Kojima-led horror game fe✨aturing Death Stranding actor Margaret Qualley. Shortly after publication, the original reporter was contacted by Kojima Production♎s, and asked to take down the report, which they then refused to do.

That ne♊w report appears to line up better with the past report of an "episodic horror game" from Kojima Productions, instead of the Death Stranding 2 claim. Of course, it's entirely possible that the report claiming knowledge of the Qualley-led game was actually the cancelled Google Stadia project, instead of an ongoing project at Kojima Productions in active development.

This is all complicated by the matter of recent 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Death S🌜tranding 2 𓆉comments from Norman Reedus. The lead Death Stranding actor appeared to accidentally let slip earlier this year in May that a sequel had just been started. If these comments from Reedus are accurate, it's somewhat strange that Death Stranding 2 wou🅺ld have a two-year gap between being cancelled by Google Stadia in 2020, before resuming productio💎n in mid-2022. 

What we'r🌼e left with are somewhat conflicting reports, with some being backed up by more circumstantial evidence than others. We have claims of a Death Stranding sequel being canned by Google, claims of an Kojima-led episodic horror game at Google, and finally claims of a Kojima horror game ca♍lled Overdose, separate from both Google and Death Stranding. 

Kojima's past comments seem to back up the report about the episodic horror game at Google being cancelled, rather than the other two reports. Additionally, the comments from Reedus seem to contradict the report about Death Stranding 2 being cancelled at Google, due to the time gap between 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Google Stadia shuttering internal developme𝐆n🌸t in ꧋early 2021 and Death Stranding 2 just having been "started" earlier t꧟his year.

Onto what we know for certain, then. Kojima announced earlier this year that 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kojima Productions would be partneri🍎ng w💟ith Xbox for a cloud-based game, and later on, the developer revealed that "multiple" new games were being worked on at his studio. What Kojima Productions really is working on, with 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Microsoft or otherwise, will be left to our imaginat🔥i⛄on for a while longer yet.

Here's 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:what we hope Death Stranding 2 changes from the original, if it is actually real.
