Death Stranding 2: On the Beach - Here’s What Comes in Each Edition

Death Stranding 2: On the Beach is coming exclusively for PS5 on June 24 — but only if you buy one of the more expensive editions. The standard edition releases June 26. Developed by Kojima Productions, IGN's review describes the game as "a sequel that triumphs in what it sets out to achieve, and a blockbuster fulfilment of what Death Stranding can (and should) be."

The Death Stranding sequel will be available in three editions: a standard edition available in physical or digital format (see it at Amazon), plus a digital deluxe edition and a collector’s edition that comes with a statue along with other goodies. Read on for pricing, availability, and details about what comes in each edition.

Death Stranding 2 - Standard Edition

If you can live without any of the digital and/or physical extras that come in the pricier versions of the game, or you want a physical copy of it, the standard edition is the way to go. It comes with the game itself, plus the digital preorder bonuses (see below for details on those).

DualSense Wireless Controller – Death Stranding 2: On the Beach Limited Edition

Also available now, exclusively through PlayStation Direct, is this Death Stranding 2-emblazoned PS5 DualSense controller. It features the Drawbridge logo and motto on the touchpad, plus some barcode-like designs on the grips. Grab it if you want it and you see it available, because once it's gone, it's gone.

What is Death Stranding 2: On the Beach?

Death Stranding 2: On the Beach is a direct sequel to the 2019 original. It takes place 11 months after the birth of the UCA, when the world has been connected, deliveries have been automated, and a new faction is rising up. I hesitate to describe what the game may or may not be, because it’s full of Kojima-level weirdness. You can watch the extensive trailer above to find out more about Death Stranding 2, which includes a Solid Snake-like character.

For more, be sure to check out our Death Stranding 2 hands-on preview, which is based on 30 hours of gameplay. That's a lot of gameplay.
