Death Stranding 2: On the Beach will feature Ray Tracing effects on PC, making it the first title using the Decima engine to support this technology. The integration of Ray Tracing by Nixxes will enhance visual fidelity through improved reflections and ambient occlusion. These features were not included in the initial PC specifications, indicating increased CPU and GPU demands. The game will feature returning characters Norman Reedus, Léa Seydoux, and Troy Baker, as well as new additions Elle Fanning, Shioli Kutsuna, and director George Miller. It will offer features such as uncapped framerates, ultrawide monitor support, DualSense controller compatibility, and various PC upscalers. The release date is set for March 19th, with pre-orders available but no review codes yet provided.
