What the heck do you actually do in Death Standing? Hideo Kojima revealed new trailers and gameplay footage at Gamescom Opening Night Live, which answered some questions, but also raised all new ones. Kojima has said the game is about forming strands between fractured American cities and people from East to West, but what does that actually mean? Well, some journalists, including the folks from GamesRadar, managed to get a more in-depth look at Death Stranding behind closed doors at Gamescom, and based on their reports, it sounds like Kojima was being quite literal in his description.

Death Stranding takes place in a future America that’s more divided than ever thanks to a series of deadly terrorist strikes. In an effort to try to bring the fractured country together the president’s daughter Amelie (played by Lindsay Wagner) attempted a cross-country journey in order to reconnect a series of communication relays and spread a message of unity. Unfortunately, Amelie didn’t quite make it to her destination, as she was captured by a terrorist group, Homo Demens, and their leader the “Man in the Golden Mask” (Troy Baker) in the West Coast settlement of Edge Knot City.
