Death Stranding to Enter Development “In Full Swing” Next Year

Development on Death Stranding will begin in earnest next year, according to Director Hideo Kojima.

Chatting to IGN regarding the decision to strike a collaboration between Kojima Productions and Guerrilla Games over the Decima game engine, Kojima-san noted that production will “enter full swing” in 2017, roughly aligning the new IP with a late 2018/early 2019 release date. Conjecture, of course, but be sure to drop your own predictions below.

Meanwhile, after the partnership was announced during PlayStation Experience, Hideo Kojima posted a series of enticing Tweets on Decima and how it’ll shape Death Stranding moving forward.

Death Stranding is in development as a PS4 exclusive. Below, you’ll find Kojima’s interview with IGN, wherein the Game Director discusses the game’s tentative production timeline around 08:20.
