Now Playing: Death Stranding 2 - On The Beach Trailer Full Breakdown

Whether or not Kojima has explored this concept in any real way beyond discussing it is unknown, however. For now, it seems to be just that--a concept that he may or may not ever explore.

Another concept that Kojima floated in the podcast was a game where a game begins with a character being born, then becoming a child, and then an adult, ultimately running through when the character is 70 or 80. "When you are a teenager you'll be able to run faster but by the time you reach 60 you'll slow down a bit," Kojima said, adding that no one would buy this game.

Also during the podcast, Kojima said one of his original plans for Death Stranding 2 was for main character Sam's beard to "gradually grow out over time." Players would have to remember to shave, if they wanted. "If they didn't, Sam would end up looking unkempt," Kojima said.

But Kojima abandoned plans for this feature because the actor who plays Sam, Norman Reedus, is a famous person. "I didn't want him to look uncool," Kojima said.

For what it's worth, Reedus has an amazing head of hair, but it's true he's not known for donning a massive beard.

Death Stranding 2 launches on June 26 for PS5. For lots more, be sure to read GameSpot's hands-on preview of Death Stranding 2 that chronicles our 30 hours of time with the game.

In addition to Reedus, the cast for Death Stranding 2 includes Elle Fanning, Troy Baker, Lea Seydoux, George Miller, and Debra Wilson.

Beyond Death Stranding 2, Kojima is making at least two other games. These include OD and Physint. We don't know much about them, but OD is being made in partnership with Xbox and Phsyint with Sony.
