Google Stadia reportedly canceled a follow-up to Death Stranding from Hideo Kojima.
Google Stadia reportedly rejected some kind of follow-up to Death Stranding from Hideo Kojima. There are a lot of stories floating around about Google Stadia right now given it has more or less imploded on itself. Google confirmed earlier this week that Stadia is indeed shutting down in January 2023, much to the dismay of fans.
According to a report from 9to5Google, one of the games Google Stadia could have had as some kind of exclusive was a follow-up to Death Stranding from Hideo Kojima. It's unclear if it was a direct sequel, a prequel, or a spin-off, but Google Stadia canceled the project as it was single player-driven and didn't feature some of the asynchronous multiplayer features of the first game.
It was previously reported that Hideo Kojima was working on an episodic horror game with Google Stadia as well. It's unclear if that was misreported and this was actually the Death Stranding game or if Kojima was working with Google on multiple projects. Either way, it wouldn't be surprising if Hideo Kojima resurrects some of his ideas for his confirmed Xbox cloud-based game.
Would you have gotten Google Stadia to play a new Hideo Kojima game? Let me know in the comments or hit me up on Twitter @Cade_Onder.
