For those still reeling from the bizarre Death Stranding footage from last week’s Gamescom, YouTuber RePorter Bridges has a little treat for you in the form of an off-screen recording of the seven-minute “Briefing” trailer. The footage in question was shown during a closed presentation at the PlayStation booth.
The trailer features characters Amelie and Die Hardman, who brief protagonist Sam Bridges on his mission to travel west and reconnect the Chiral Network terminals scattered across the United Cities of America. Doing so will integrate the terminals into the Chiral Web, which will deisolate and reconnect the country’s people. Sam, however, turns down this mission, promising not to get involved with Amelie and Hardman, “or anyone else, ever again.”
Death Stranding is due out for PlayStation 4 on November 8.
