Kojima Drops Potential Hints of ‘Death Stranding’ DLC on Twitter?
While it could be that Hideo Kojima is once again messing with fans, a pair of recent tweets have some people thinking that the rumoured DLC for Death Stranding might be a very real thing.
The first tweet from Kojima has him talking about working from home. That might not seem important, other than the fact that he has blatantly placed a replica of Death Stranding’s BB on his desk. Again, it could be Kojima messing with his audience.
Here's my way of designing new title w/Yoji. 1st we discuss the setting for each character, the background, the world, the color, the characteristics, the roles, the images, ideas and keyword going back&forth via E-mail. WFH & 20 mins direct discussion. Mostly texting via iPhone. pic.twitter.com/XCYpFwsQ6U

The next tweet, however, does require a bit of snooping from the viewer. Kojima posted a concept art drawing of a drawing of a spaceship. If you look closely, however, you’ll see the word ‘Bridges’ written on the side. Bridges, in case you were unaware, is the surname of the game’s protagonist, Sam Porter Bridges (played by Norman Reedus, who incidentally dropped hints of Death Stranding DLC months back).
Working on the concept with listening to “OASIS” by Kitaro I recently bought. I(I used to have the vinyl) Love the illustration by Shusei Nagaoka. pic.twitter.com/hRLyZmnhe5

Of course, none of this has been confirmed, nor has Kojima said anything about DLC for the game. And as we know, Kojima does like to mess with people. Regardless, Death Stranding is available now on PlayStation 4, with a PC release on Steam and the Epic Games Store on July 14th.
Epic’s Fortnite is heading for another crossover, this time with Universal Orlando and Halloween Horror Nights. The title’s annual Fortnitemares Halloween event will be coming to Universal Studios Hollywood and Universal Orlando Resort in a new scare zone, kicking off on August 28.
For those not in the know, Scare zones are themed, open air-areas where guests and actors roam around freely.
This is the first time Fortnite will be featured during the after-hours event, which will run from August 28 until November 1. Tickets and packages are on sale now at the official site.
Per the press release, guests will enter Freaky Fields, a Halloween-inspired living battleground that’s been “overcome with a threatening force.” From there, fans will meet up with the Battle Bus, featuring familiar Fortnitemares characters, including “a few new additions exclusive to Halloween Horror Nights.”
And of course, there will be Fortnitemares merchandise available for fans, including a graphic t-shirt, decal set, and an acrylic collectible piece.
Fortnitemares won’t be the only featured property at this year’s Halloween Horror Nights. Killer Klowns from Outer Space will also be getting its own scare zone. Sinners, Stranger Things, Hellraiser and Evil Dead Burn will also be part of the event, though they will be relegated to their own specific houses.
And while it’s early yet, gamers can probably expect Fortnitemares to return to Fortnite this October.
