  • Death Stranding 2: On the Beach review | More Metal Gear Solid than ever (for better and worse)

    Verdict: Death Stranding 2: On the Beach builds on the foundations of the original, but adds whole new wings with a different vibe. Charmingly bizarre with its worldbuilding and spectacle, there's still a real sense of community as you bring the world online with other players at your side.
