Kojima Productions Co., Ltd. is a Japanese video game development studio founded in 2015 by game creator Hideo Kojima. DEATH STRANDING is produced, written, designed and directed by Hideo Kojima.Yoji Shinkawa is a long-time collaborator with Hideo Kojima. Oftentimes, he'll create some drawings based on my ideas, and show them to me a few days later. The image I tweeted recently was one of these drawings."

It is later revealed that his face is not damaged at all, and he was simply using it to hide his identity. Heartman is later present during Die-Hardman's presidential inauguration as the United Cities of America is formally recognized as a nation made whole, initially in a coma after a cardiac arrest, awakens when Sam leaves the room. But "The Art of Death Stranding" is not just a beautiful coffee table book; it's also a valuable addition to the understanding of the game's themes and narrative. The book dives into the symbolism and themes that underpin the game, exploring the ideas of life, death, and human connection. It's clear that a lot of thought and intention went into the creation of this game, and the book does a fantastic job of conveying that. From a career perspective, Shinkawa first envisioned being a manga artist, but, fearing his love for painting had given him the "wrong skill set," decided against that. Instead, he applied for a position at Konami in Tokyo, then and now one of the leading entertainment businesses in Japan. At the time, Konami saw opportunities in the new generation of home consoles (the Sega Saturn and the PlayStation both launched in 1994), leading to large investments in studios and games.When it came to designing mechanical elements like robots and vehicles, how much did you consider how realistic or believable they might be in the world?

Each Ultra-Limited Edition comes with a unique one-off sketch by Art Director Yoji Shinkawa. No one copy of the Ultra is the same. Each art piece is presented in a folder-frame. After countless trips to the Beach, he reasoned that with each person's Beach being unique, not even death would allow him to be reunited with his family, so he gave up his quest, realizing that it would change nothing. Moving on with his life, he later met a woman named Samantha Spade, suggesting a future romantic partner. Becoming a Beach expert, Heartman is hired by Bridges and chosen as a member of the first expedition, led by Amelie, to connect communities to the newly Chiral Network, and study the Beach and Death Stranding. Like all the other members, however, Heartman has never met Amelie in person, as she is part of the advanced team. Once installed in the area north of Mountain Knot City, the team of scientists began to reveal an anomaly in the tar belt around Edge Knot City, tar that surfaced to the surface, devouring Heartman's colleagues and a secondary station, essential for expand the Chiral Network to the west thus remaining disconnected. Additionally, during the Death Stranding he became a prominent politician directing Bridges and eventually becoming the third president of the UCA. At the heart of Kojima's new game, that would take advantage of the 3D rendering capabilities of the new PlayStation console, was the Metal Gear REX, a walking tank. It fell to Shinkawa to design the 3D model. First, the creative parameters were discussed: in movement, the REX should have a dinosaur-like quality (the Tyrannosaurus Rex served as inspiration for its name and shape), and as a robot it should not follow the human form or be "too much from outer space"—basically excluding the whole canon of Japanese mecha designs as reference material.The combined result of his artistic training and choice of tools, is that his pen flows intuitively, the paper capturing bold characters in strong poses that seem to come from nowhere—Shinkawa's doodles show his absolute mastery of weight distribution in a human body, keeping character art from "floating," as the workings of gravity are always evident.
