Death Stranding Is Getting an Anime Adaptation, Hideo Kojima Says

  • Hideo Kojima confirmed that Death Stranding is receiving an anime adaptation alongside a live-action film as of mid-2025.
  • This development follows the 2020 game's release and 2023 announcement of a film collaboration with A24, with Kojima stating adaptations will diverge from direct game retellings.
  • Kojima aims to explore cinematic storytelling unique to film and hopes the Death Stranding film will win awards at festivals like Cannes, while the anime remains in early production without a release date.
  • Kojima explained that the project is designed to appeal not just to gamers familiar with the series, but also to a wider audience who appreciate cinema in general.
  • These adaptations suggest Kojima's strategy to expand Death Stranding’s universe through multiple media, reflecting his view of a future convergence of games and film.
