Death Stranding has been in the news for quite some time now. During the Gamescom 2019 Opening Night Live hosted by Geoff Keighley, director/producer/designer/co-writer Hideo Kojima debuted three new trailers from the game and further talked about the new exciting gameplay, imagery, and other features of the game. And now a new announcement from Kojima Productions confirms that there will be a ‘Very Easy Mode’ in its first “Death Stranding” game which is to be released this November.
Director Hideo Kojima tweeted news of this yesterday:
Normally there’s only Easy Mode, but we added Very Easy Mode for movie fans since we have real actors like Norman, Mads, Lea starred in. Even Yano-san who never completed the 1st stage of PAC-MAN, was able to complete the game on Very Easy Mode 👍🌈🦀😅 https://t.co/fMZmuZltZw

The Very Easy Mode came into light for the first time when it was mentioned by Kojima’s personal assistant, but now the announcement is official. Kojima further confirmed that the new ‘Very Easy Mode’ has been added, keeping in mind the non-gamers, who usually play the game for story.
Death Stranding features a star-studded cast that includes Norman Reedus from The Walking Dead, Mads Mikkelsen from Casino Royale, and Lea Seydoux from Spectre in the lead roles. As I have discussed earlier also, Death Stranding’s trailer starts off with Norman Reedus as Sam Porter, loitering around mountainous terrain, cradling his bridge baby who surprisingly guides him and helps him fight against monsters(BT’s). The game also shows glimpses of motion controls to comfort the baby carried inside a tube on Sam’s back. But what more weird is that we see that as the baby pees, a mushroom sprouts out.
With the title closing in on the release date which is set to November 8th, we can expect many more features to be unveiled.
