                Death Stranding is a completely new type of action game, where the goal of the player is to reconnect isolated cities and a fragmented society. it is created so that all elements, including the story and gameplay, are bound together by the theme of the “strand” or connection. as sam porter bridges, you will attempt to bridge the divides in society, and in doing create new bonds or “strands” with other players around the globe.
