Summer Game Fest 2025 ended with Death Stranding 2: On the Beach taking center stage. Geoff Keighley gathered Hideo Kojima, Shioli Kutsuna, Troy Baker, and Woodkid for a special panel discussion. The team revealed fresh cutscene footage during their conversation. Woodkid discussed creating the game's musical score. Baker and Kutsuna talked about their character roles and their acting work with Kojima.
A live gameplay demonstration became the event's highlight. One developer from Kojima Productions played early game sections on PlayStation 5 Pro as Kojima provided commentary. The speakers avoided spoilers because Death Stranding 2: On the Beach releases June 26, 2025. Live gaming demonstrations rarely happen anymore since E3 events stopped. Fans saw exactly what awaits them when the game arrives.
The premiere kicks off a global tour hitting Australia, Japan, France, England, Korea, Taiwan, China, Saudi Arabia, Brazil, and Italy before November 2025 ends. Complete tour schedules and venue information remain unreleased. Attendees wonder whether other tour stops will offer similar presentations and panel discussions.
