What Death Stranding: Director’s Cut’s Post-Credits Scene Could Do
WhileDeath Strandingcan be considered a complete experience, it doesn’t mean that there isn’t room for a sequel. A post-game sceneteasing aDeath Strandingsequelwould be a great tease for fans of the original game. The ending ofDeath Strandingis quite layered and involves several different elements, but a sequel set in this same world would certainly have an audience. A tease of the protagonist, Norman Reedus' Sam, in perhaps a new location or the midst of a conflict would be enough to hype fans up about a possible sequel. It wouldn’t necessarily need to be something complicated, just a straightforward tease that there will be further adventures in theDeath Strandinguniverse, with players in the role of Sam or even a new protagonist.
A post-credits scene inDeath Stranding: Director’s Cuthasn’t been confirmed, though it wouldn’t be too hard to foresee for Kojima Productions.Hideo Kojima is no stranger to messing with gamers, and a teaser at the end ofDeath Stranding: Director’s Cutmight not be too surprising. Hideo Kojima has repeatedly broken the fourth wall in theMetal Gear Solidseries, and a teaser done in a similarly jarring manner could be a treat forDeath Strandingfans. While it shouldn’t be expected, seeing Sam or another character addressing the player directly isn’t outside the realm of possibility.

This would not only be a nice surprise for gamers who completeDirector’s Cut, but also be solid confirmation thatDeath Stranding, as a franchise, could have a bright future ahead. AdditionalDeath Strandingprojects haven’t been confirmed, so a post credits sequence could be the perfect way of saying that there is a franchise ready to be spawned.
