Hideo Kojima Shows Off First Look at Death Stranding Animated Film: Mosquito

Kojima Productions expands the Death Stranding universe with a hand-drawn animated film featuring a new protagonist and original story, announced during its 10th anniversary event.

  • On Tuesday, Kojima Productions premiered a first look at Death Stranding: Mosquito during its 10th-anniversary livestream in Tokyo.
  • Hideo Kojima said the standalone animated feature in the Death Stranding world is based on a game `takes about 70 or 80 hours`, emphasizing the need for a different story.
  • Hand-Drawn lines will be digitally assembled, Aaron Guzikowski, screenwriter, writes the scenario, and Studio Easter, background studio, created the stylized backgrounds seen in teaser footage showing a brutal brawl.
  • So far, no release date has been announced for Death Stranding: Mosquito, which introduces a new main character and suggests two Repatriates, including one in a porter suit.
  • Alongside Mosquito, Michael Sarnoski will direct A24's live-action Death Stranding, with Kojima as producer saying he won't be super involved, and Niantic revealed a new augmented-reality game.
