‘Apologies to all our fans’
Death Stranding, the first game from Hideo Kojima’s new studio Kojima Productions, will not make an appearance at E3 2017, he announced today.
“Apologies to our fans, Death Stranding will not be @ E3 as we are fully focused on development,” Kojima said in a tweet this morning.
Kojima himself will appear at E3. He also used his tweet to mention that he will be doing an E3 Coliseum panel with Jordan Vogt-Roberts, the director of Kong: Skull Island, who is working on a film adaptation of the Metal Gear Solid franchise.
The E3 Coliseum, which was put together by The Game Awards producer Geoff Keighley in partnership with the organization behind E3, is a two-day series of panels and presentations by the games industry and figures from the larger entertainment world. Kojima’s one-on-one talk with Vogt-Roberts is scheduled for 3:15-4:15 p.m. PDT on Wednesday, June 14.
Kojima’s tweet included one more thing: a new poster for Death Stranding. We’re not sure what the term “Bridges” means in the context of the game, and the spiderweb imagery is also new — but as with any Kojima project, let the speculation begin. Death Stranding is in development exclusively on PlayStation 4.
Apologies to our fans, Death Stranding will not be @ E3 as we are fully focused on development. Pls see me with @geoffkeighley on 6/14! http://pic.twitter.com/w9JfmEOqF4
