Death Stranding 2 Early Access Streaming Guidelines Set

People who ordered the Deluxe or Collector’s Editions of Death Stranding 2: On the Beach get early access to the game at 12am ET on June 24, 2025, and there are special streaming guidelines on the official site for this period to prevent spoilers for slipping out. Basically, you need to stop once you hit the campaign mission “Order: No. 28.”

The guidelines aren’t terribly strict for streaming Death Stranding 2 during early access or after. One that persists regardless of when you stream is that someone must include the following legal disclaimer in posts and streams, “©2025 KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS Co., Ltd. / HIDEO KOJIMA. Produced by Sony Interactive Entertainment Inc.” Another is that the developer requests a spoiler alert be placed somewhere if substantial campaign details will come up regardless of when it appears. 

However, the main detail affects anyone playing before 12am ET on June 24, 2025. Episode 7 of Death Stranding 2, “Order: No. 28” is the final mission someone can show. This is about at the halfway point of the game. Kojima Productions also ended up being very specific in saying the stream must end once the “results” screen that shows your grade, Sam’s level up stats, and rewards appears. 

Death Stranding 2 early access starts at 12am ET on June 24, 2025, if you bought the Deluxe or Collector’s Edition, and everyone gets access to the PS5 game on June 26, 2025.
