Kojima has always loved cinema of all flavors, and he has always wanted to create a piece of art in this industry as well, and with a product like Death Stranding, that idea might be very successful. The official announcement worded by Hideo Kojima was as follows, “A24 was born into this world about 10 years ago, their presence is singular within the industry, they are like no other. The films they are delivering to the world are high in quality and very innovative. I have been attracted to their creations and they have even inspired my own work. Their innovative approach to storytelling aligns with what Kojima Productions has been doing for the last 8 years.”
Kojima further talks about the upcoming movie and many of its unique aspects, “Now, we are making a Death Stranding movie together. There are a lot of “game adaptation films” out there, but what we are creating is not just a direct translation of the game. The intention is that our audience will not only be fans of the games, but our film will be for anyone who loves cinema. We are creating a Death Stranding universe that has never been seen before, achievable only through the medium of film; it will be born.
With the current milestone, it is safe to say they after the release of the movie in 2024, Death Stranding is sure to gain a surge in popularity and a lot more copies sold if the movie is able to keep up the game’s appearances and ideals. Players are overjoyed to see Kojima working this hard on his franchise, and we are just as overjoyed to see where this road leads next.
