The Death Stranding game could have anime

In a recent interview, Hideo Kojima, the legendary director behind the popular video game "Death Stranding," hinted at the possibility that his creation could expand into the world of anime. Kojima mentioned that his current goal is to "strengthen the intellectual properties" he has developed as an independent studio, and that to do so he plans to explore new forms of media beyond video games, including movies, anime and television series.

In his own words, Kojima commented that, having established "Death Stranding" as an IP in the gaming world, the second phase of his plan is to expand it to different global platforms and then explore other mediums. This includes creating content in formats such as movies and anime, which opens the door to a possible animated adaptation of this title.

"Death Stranding", originally released in 2019, has become a work acclaimed by critics and players alike, who praised its innovative gameplay, narrative and stunning visuals. With a cast of renowned Hollywood actors, such as Norman Reedus and Mads Mikkelsen, Kojima demonstrated his ability to merge the worlds of film and video games. Now, with his focus on expanding this merger into other mediums, fans are starting to speculate about what an animated version of the story would look like.

While Kojima did not explicitly confirm the production of an anime based on "Death Stranding," his statements suggest that the expansion of this IP is a fundamental part of his future projects. The possibility of seeing Sam Porter Bridges in animated format has generated great expectation among fans of the franchise, who are attentive to any official announcement that may arise in the coming months.

For now, the director is still working on the sequel to "Death Stranding," as well as other experimental projects. However, the idea that Kojima Productions can enter the world of anime is already a source of excitement and speculation in the community of players and fans of the studio.
