Update (29th May 2019): The Death Stranding livestream is gradually becoming clearer. Initially, the trademark hand prints would appear and disappear seemingly at random, but they're now sticking around. It looks as though more hand prints will slowly piece the picture together as we draw closer to the big reveal later today.
Original Story: Death Stranding will receive a new trailer on 29th May, and creator Hideo Kojima is up to his usual tricks. We’ve already had two cryptic teasers, and now PlayStation has added to the enthusiasm with a mysterious livestream. So far, it appears to be a looping video of the PlayStation 4 exclusive’s infamous hand prints – although there are reports of a lady’s voice, too.
Exactly how this stream will evolve remains to be seen, but knowing Kojima, he’ll have a few surprises in store before the new trailer goes live tomorrow. If you can’t wait that long, then may we recommend re-watching all of Death Stranding’s trailers thus far to get you in the mood. Tomorrow is in your hands, apparently.

I'm so hyped for this.
Thankfully @get2sammyb has nominated himself to be the one who sits and watches all 24 hours of this.
Looooove how creepy it is.
raw gameplay please..
If someone could record the 4 sections of this clip (each time the hands move) and then spliced the background stuff together we would have a bigger window into what is going on.
There was a blokes voice 'tough out here' just now. Hmmm creepy.
3 hour before I sleep, I hope I can see the trailer in this 3 hour
This reminds me of when PT stealth dropped at E3. That was so cool.
I'll be watching the Uefa cup final. I can make more sense of two English teams playing a European competition in Azerbaijan.
@ApostateMage Comment of the Week
Estimated time for the trailer?
Nonsense livestream with undefined length? That has Kojima's name written all over it.
Awesome.
Time to sleep, I'll see the trailer tomorrow
I get that some people find all this teasing irritating, but it actually gets me so excited and intrigued. I am hoping for something more substantial this time, though
Also just heard a man's voice, so creepy
Oh here we go. This has got to be a release date announcement right? This is way too much hype just to show a new trailer. I can’t wait for this one!
Edit: I was able to make out part of what the woman is saying, “Not to stand apart, but to come together”
It also appears that a scene from the game is taking place that you can see through the handprints.
Half life 3 confirmed
Full title of the game -
Death Stranding: ASMR
Tomorrow's going to be a good today. Tomorrow we will all reconnect together.
I’m awake, where’s the trailer?
@ShogunRok Big fan of movies in games thats why i loved the PS1 games.
I just can’t be assed with cryptic crap. Wake me up when there’s gameplay footage...
This is their last chance to sell me on this. I like the Metal Gear Solid games but other stuff Kojima has worked on not so much and this one is seemingly another miss. The game has been shown a few times and I still have no clue what it's about.
@JoeBlogs oh is that how that whole HL3 thing works?
Lolol im old haha. But its.... Cool.... To NOT be cool... Right? (in marge voice)
Tomorrow is in your hands. Could that refer to an available demo?
glad I can watch the livestream here as the twitch site keeps buffering the stream for every 3 seconds
Knack 3: PT Edition - calling it
@Amplified it's all the spamming in the comments that made me give up on that stream
Just a PSA, it seems that more hands show up as the viewers increases and vice versa. Seems to tie in with the whole working together thing Kojima talked about. Go recruit your friends tell them to get on lol!
@redd214 So the game becomes easier the more people play it?
@Octane dude I'm not even sure it's an actual game at this point lol
@redd214 "I'm not even sure it's an actual game"
I just came to say that. Beginning to think this is more all just some performance art "living art project" than an actual game. Pretty sure it will all culminate w/ Geoff Knightly and Kojima tongue wrasslin on top of the great pyramid of Giza. 😂
@rjejr Kojima is going to come on and tell us the game was released years ago and we've been playing it the whole time. It's a social experiment simulator and we were all participants lol!
Welp less than 10 mins to go, let's see what they got!
@redd214 I think it will be 4.30, same time as the PSplus announcing Death Stranding as June's free game
@redd214 Welp less than 10 mins to go
Oh, thanks a lot for that, I had no idea. Guess I should stick around then.
Maybe Death Stranding isn't a game, it's a new marketing strategy. From now on all games will have debut trailers shown through hands for 24 hours so we can guess what game it is.
I'm pretty sure I've been watching a trailer for HZD2 the past 5 minutes.
@rjejr well they said the news would be on May 30th Japan time and May 29yh everywhere else. It just clicked over midnight in Japan so it could be any minute now. Unfortunately they didn't say an exact time. I figured since this has been going on for hours now it would be right as the clock turned but, well, Kojima ya know
@redd214 So, they are promoting that they are releasing a new trailer any time within the next 12 hours?
At some point Kojima is going to drown his fanbase in the hype machine and no mater how well the game turns out it will simply NEVER live up to all of this. Sure, the diehards will still be there, but how well did The Last Guardian sell?
Will be interesting to see how all of this looks 5 years from now. I think I'm going to go mow my lawn now.
If you listen to Robert Mueller speak while watching this it gives the game a plot.

You can definitely see him riding a motorbike in the stream so it's not just a walking sim. You can actually see quite a lot right now, they might as well show the full thing now.
The Game's so Metal Gear Solid V: Phantom Pain! I'm in LOVE
So can the "walking sim" crowd shut up now? Thank you.
I cant see the preorder on the ps store and the website doesn't confirm the release date. is this still a tease?
