  In the latest issue of Edge magazine, producer Uchio Kojima talked about his new work "Death Stranding 2", saying that he was not interested in the sales of millions of copies of the game and just wanted to create something new.

Hyuo Kojima reviewed the testing process of the first generation of "Death Stranding". He found that four out of ten people would like the game, but six would say it was terrible. It was a good balance for him. But everyone seems to be positive about the test of "Death Stranding 2".

He added: "Sony is of course happy, but I really wish I was more controversial. Popular movies require 80% ' 'The positive rate of reviews - I don't want to make games like that. I'm not interested in catering to the mass market or selling millions of games... that's not my goal. '

  Then, Hideo Kojima smiled and said, "Of course, I can't afford the consequences of failure. I have to take good care of my studio, the staff, and our production budget. In essence, I don't want to just copy what is already in the world. I want to create something brand new." '

  "Death Stranding 2" will continue the previous plot, telling the new adventure of the protagonist Sam. The open world built by the game is not only large in scale, but also has a lot of puzzles. The diversified scene design may bring players a more in-depth game experience
