"Death Stranding 2: Bosses Bypassed, Not Beaten"

In the highly anticipated sequel, Death Stranding 2: On The Beach, players will encounter a groundbreaking feature that allows them to clear bosses without engaging in combat. This innovative option, detailed by game director Hideo Kojima during the latest episode of Koji Pro radio broadcasts on April 14, caters especially to less experienced players. If a player fails a boss fight, they can opt to press "continue" on the game over screen. This choice bypasses the need for combat, instead offering a visual novel-style experience with images and text that convey the narrative essence of the battle.
