Death Stranding 2: On the Beach players have found a stunningGhost of YoteiEaster egg during gameplay, which gives Sam Porter Bridges a fantastic cosmetic to don.Death Stranding 2was written, produced, and directed by the legendary Hideo Kojima, and the plot is set 11 months after the events of the first, post-apocalyptic game. Players return to pilot freelance porter, Sam, across Australia in a bid to locate survivors and save humanity.
Death Stranding 2has only been on the market less than a week and the anticipated sequel has already achieved critical acclaim, with critics and fans praising the acting collaboration, featuring an ensemble packed with talent like Normal Reedus, Troy Baker, Lea Seydoux, and Elle Fanning, the life-like visuals, and surreal story. However, someDeath Stranding 2players have reported overheating consoleswhile playing, and it’s sadly a technical glitch that has nothing to do with fans playing 24/7.
Shared by ReaddittiddeR on Reddit, a screenshot was posted on theGhost of Yoteisubreddit showingDeath Stranding’s Sam wearing a familiar mask. Adding toGhost of Tsushima’s Easter egg dedicated toHorizon Zero Dawn, another PlayStation exclusive,Death Stranding 2has included a “Yotei Mask” from Sucker Punch Productions’ upcoming sequel, described as an “unusual mask” found by the Adventurer in the snowy mountains that reminded him of Mount Yotei in Japan. Players will need to meet with the Adventurer in the F5 East Distribution Center first and then complete a handful of rescue missions concerning the character’s father to obtain the mask.

Fellow Redditors were further motivated to press on inDeath Stranding 2to find the mask, and one player wanted to be notified if aBloodbornehat is discovered at any point. The originalDeath Strandingincluded several Easter eggsthat only true fans found, such as Mads Mikkelsen’s dance moves and the popular Peeping Tom detail, but theGhost of Yoteidiscovery will surely be a sought-after nod as PlayStation users patiently wait for Sucker Punch’s sequel.
