・Death Stranding is an asynchronous multiplayer title where actions you take in your world can affect other players.

・Shortly after the first mockup was published in mid-2020, Google abandoned the project altogether.
・Earlier reports said that Kojima Productions was working on an episodic horror game for Stadia, and that the project was canceled in 2020.
