But Kojima was quick to clarify that the game is not a first-person shooter. The news comes from Kojima himself via a tweet where he said he is asked often about first-person in connection with Death Stranding, so he wanted to clear up if his next mysterious game can be played in more views than the third-person people have seen so far.
What is Death Stranding?Most obvious, Death Stranding is in the format of an action/adventure game with a third- (or first-) person perspective following a single character. But then he mentions "Strand," which no doubt is a major reason why Kojima has titled the game Death Stranding.
Can Death Stranding be played from a third-person perspective?All the footage shown for Hideo Kojima's next game Death Stranding has shown gameplay from a third-person perspective, similar to Kojima's previous Metal Gear Solid stealth-action series. Despite what has been shown so far, Kojima says that the game can be played from a first-person perspective.
What's the best way to make Death Stranding look more realistic?A simple reshade preset for Death Stranding which adds more depth and vibrancy while retaining the realistic default look of the game. A simple textures mod I made that changes the appearance of Sam into Batman's Joker.
