Hideo Kojima closed out this year’s Tokyo Game Show by adding another famous name to Death Stranding.
In the game’s latest trailer, Kojima has introduced Troy Baker as “The Man in the Golden Mask.” Even though he has only a scant few seconds to make an impression, we quickly learn that he’s quite unhappy with Norman Reedus’s character. “The Man in the Golden Mask” then proceeds to use his gleaming facial appliance to create a snarling monster out of Death Stranding’s infamous black goo before teleporting away.
So it’s gonna be like that, huh? Like every other Death Stranding trailer, all I can do is stare slack-jawed at the screen and ask, “What exactly did I just see?”
Sadly, answers will have to come later, as Kojima still isn’t ready to announce a launch date for Death Stranding, which is currently in development for the PC and PS4.
