‘Death Stranding’ Trailer Features Guillermo Del Toro, Mads Mikkelsen, But No Norman Reedus This Time

Hideo Kojima released the second trailer for his upcoming game Death Stranding during The Game Awards 2016, which included two new characters.

The first trailer featured a very naked Norman Reedus holding a baby that disappears in his arms. Yes, that is what happened. No, it doesn’t make sense, and neither does the new trailer.

This brings us to Guillermo Del Toro. The director’s involvement in Kojima’s title comes as a surprise as he was pretty adamant about staying away from video game development after his failed partnership with Konami. R.I.P. Silent Hills .

Anway, Del Toro appears to be playing a character in Kojima’s game. His character is holding a capsule with an infant inside, but it’s not made clear why he has the child. We also see Mads Mikkelsen playing what might be the bad guy in the game. Check out the full Death Stranding trailer in the video above.

Not much is known about Death Stranding , but Kojima did share some specific details on Twitter back in June.

“Genre is action and it’s an open world with a degree of freedom and you can enjoy the story at the same time. And there are online elements,” Kojima wrote. “For Death Stranding we plan to accommodate 4K and HDR so you can enjoy vivid and real images.” Check out the other tweets below.
