Kojima personally edited this new trailer. In another tweet, he said the director’s cut didn’t get a lot of attention or publicity, and he said the final trailer would be “released quietly”. Despite his belief that it will fly under the radar, Kojima said he edited the video “with all of my ‘soul'”.
The Death Stranding director’s cut offers “a lot of new content and improved gameplay functionality”. Fans can look forward to more weapons, equipment, vehicles, modes and missions, along with additional areas to explore, “expanded storylines” and UI improvements. A trailer released during Gamescom showed a number of the new features.
