Norman Reedus Hints at ‘Death Stranding’ DLC, Other Potential Project With Kojima
While Hideo Kojima has been coy about just what his next project will be, leave it to his newest BFF in Norman Reedus to stir the pot with potentially more Death Stranding on the way, and even something else.
In a newly-released video for the Wired series “Answers the Web’s Most Searched Questions”, Reedus talks about how he and Kojima got together. At around the 4:55 mark, in an answer to a question about how he got cast as the main star of Kojima Productions’ debut title, Reedus acknowledged that “We did Death Stranding which was a huge hit” before revealing that he and Kojima are currently “in talks to do other stuff.”
If that wasn’t enough, Reedus also hints at potential Death Stranding DLC in the interview at around the 8:15 mark, confirming that he’s “talking to Hideo about maybe doing some Death Stranding stuff”. This would be perfect timing, given that PC owners will finally get the game on June 2. Then there’s also that rumour regarding a new Silent Hill game, which could potentially involve Kojima (though that’s admittedly only speculation).
Death Stranding is out now on PlayStation 4.
Just as advertised, Wales Interactive’s follow-up to 2020’s Maid of Sker in Sker Ritual (check out Harrison’s review) has left Early Access today, and is now available on PC via Steam, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series, with crossplay available for PC and Xbox users. Alongside all of the content from the PC Early Access version, the massive 1.0 update introduces new objectives, weapons, story content and more.
“We are super excited to bring Sker Ritual to players on console and PC.” said David Banner, CEO & Co-Founder at Wales Interactive. “Over the past two years, our core team of five has been working non-stop to implement community feedback from the PC Early Access, ensuring the 1.0/console launch is the complete package. We cannot wait to see the community response to Sker Ritual.”
In Sker Ritual, players will battle hordes of horrific enemies, alone or in up to four-player co-op, and attempt to survive the onslaught of Sker Island’s vicious Quiet Ones. Gun down masses of enemies, collect Celtic God powers, upgrade an arsenal of steampunk weapons and attempt to defeat the evil on Sker Island.
Sker Ritual features four unique locations to explore in the Cursed Lands of Lavernock, Ashes of Sker Hotel, Sewers of the Dead, and Deadly Lover’s Fortress. You’ll have numerous secrets to discover, optional objectives, and Easter Eggs which progress the story from Maid of Sker’s evil ending. Players will battle the Quiet Ones alone or with up to three additional players in online co-op, with the hordes scaling based on the player count.
Killing enemies offer a chance to drop powerful Miracles, each offering a choice of three upgradable powers. Bound to a Celtic God, each upgrade comes with a different rarity, core attributes and power. You’ll need it, as The Quiet Ones are back, and they’ve brought friends. Sker Island is crawling with new enemies and elites, each with their own abilities.
