It’s official – Death Stranding is getting a film from A24 and Kojima Productions.

The information comes in the present day as A24 makes a new T-shirt available – a tie-in that depicts the A24 emblem in Death Stranding fashion… and it’s the product description that has tipped us off to the collaboration.

“It’s official: we’ve partnered with Kojima Productions on the live-action characteristic movie adaptation of Hideo Kojima’s acclaimed online game, Death Stranding,” reads the T-shirt description.

Sadly, that’s all we’re getting, for now. The T-shirt itself depicts A24’s immediately recognizable emblem full with strands – mashing up the studio’s personal emblem with the emblem from the hit online game.

Death Stranding was directed by gaming legend Hideo Kojima and is ready in the US following a cataclysmic occasion that leaves harmful, harmful creatures roaming the Earth. The participant assumes the position of freelance courier Sam Porter Bridges (performed by Norman Reedus) who’s accompanied by a Bridge Child – a untimely little one contained in a cell pod that enables Sam to sense the presence of close by creatures (referred to as BTs).

Sadly, little else has been reported about it since, however Kojima has at all times needed his studio to begin making movies, and opened a film, TV, and music division in 2021.

IGN’s Death Stranding evaluation gave the sport 6.8/10 and mentioned: “Death Stranding simply can’t constantly get the stability proper regardless of possessing equally lofty ambitions and numerous creative concepts. There’s a fascinating, fleshed-out world of supernatural science fiction to take pleasure in throughout its sprawling and spectacular map, so it’s an actual disgrace that it’s all been saddled on a gameplay spine that struggles to adequately assist its weight over the complete course of the journey. It’s becoming that Kojima Productions’ newest is so preoccupied with social media-inspired reward as a result of in some methods I did ‘Like’ Death Stranding. I simply didn’t ever like it.”
