Death Stranding development update details
A few days ago, Kojima posted a new tweet that gave an interesting update of the game’s development progress. While the post is entirely Japanese, the translation suggested that the game right now has entered into a key time in its development. This is such good news for the fans waiting for this title to launch.
DSはまだ難度調整やデバック段階ではなく、ツールや開発機上で出来たバラバラのパーツをひとつのゲームに組み上げていっているところ。PS4の実機で毎日、実際に僕がゲームを直接プレイしながら、パーツを繋げ、操作感や演出、仕様、不具合を修正、肉付けと削ぎ落としをしている過程。重要なフェーズ🌈 pic.twitter.com/h30KIec9q0

Death Stranding is not in its debugging stage, but combing all the game elements formed in the development tools into the game. So everyday, Hideo’s playing the game on PS4, connecting, adjusting. It’s adding and taking out things at the same time. Key time in the development! https://t.co/YDzGDozH7I
