Hideo Kojima says that Death Stranding 2's apparent focus on combat and stealth doesn't mean that the core gameplay has changed too much.

Speaking to IGN, Kojima says that when it comes to Death Stranding 2, "I'm not simply pushing combat. The game is still fundamentally about cargo delivery, but combat has become more flexible."
