DEATH STRANDING

JP > EN Localisation

When DEATH STRANDING was released to great fanfare in 2019, you’d have been hard-pressed to find even a casual gamer who hadn’t heard of Hideo Kojima’s enigmatic masterpiece. As much a philosophical statement as a game, DEATH STRANDING set out to break new ground for the medium, featuring avant-garde game design, and the production values of a Hollywood blockbuster. A big deal, in short.

Being huge fans of his previous titles, we were as excited as anyone to hear the news that Mr Kojima had set up his own studio and begun work on a new IP—but never thought we’d be fortunate enough to be involved. Accordingly, it was with a mixture of shock, delight and trepidation that we received the invitation to produce the game’s English script.

Over the subsequent months, we worked closely with the talented folks at Kojima Productions, endlessly debating how best to realise Mr Kojima’s uncompromising and inimitable vision. And—several thousand man-hours later—when we finally saw the game’s all-star cast uttering the fruits of our collective labours, well…let’s just say, tears were shed.

A big thank you to Mr Kojima and everyone at Kojima Productions for giving us the chance to collaborate on such an incredible project. Here’s to many more!
