In this week's State of Play, Hideo Kojima brings a brand new game from the studio's latest title, Death Stranding 2: Above the Mighty Beach**. Today** said that there are many players who are enthusiastically asking to see Cliff played by Nordic Supreme Boss Max Mikkelsen in the 2nd generation, but his answer is that Max will not appear this time. 
I think players who have cleared the original Death Stranding will understand that Cliff is a very important character and a very special presence in Death Stranding. Max understands this character very well and plays it vividly in the game. His role as Cliff will surely live forever in the story of Death Stranding and in the player's memory. It is precisely because we attach so much importance to the character of Cliff that we will not let him appear in "Death Stranding 2", please understand
Death Stranding 2 will be released in 2025 and will embark on a heart-wrenching mission to find human connections beyond UCA. Sam and his friends embark on a new journey to save humanity from extinction. Join them as they traverse a world of otherworldly enemies and obstacles, with a lingering question: Is connection necessary?
