They do, however, tease out some of the game's subtler themes and metaphors that might have got lost in its rather galaxy-brain storyline, and they also dive much deeper into the thoughts and feelings of the game's supporting cast members. As such, the books won't hold any surprises for those of you who have already played the game, and I doubt they'll convert many who haven't. Dialogue from the game's cutscenes is lifted pretty much word for word, and it also borrows the same character-led chapter structure. Written by Hitori Nojima (the pen name of Kenji Yano, who was one of the co-writers on Death Stranding the game along with Hideo Kojima) and translated by Carley Radford, Death Stranding: The Official Novelisation Volumes 1 and 2 follow the game's plot almost to a tee. Available from: Forbidden Planet, Waterstones, Bookshop, Hive, Amazon UK, Amazon US.Release date: Out now (UK), February 23rd (US).Death Stranding: The Official Novelisation specs Two whole books of it, and lemme tell ya, it's a real kettle of fish. When I heard Titan Books were publishing an official novelisation of the game, I just had to check it out. It's a game I have a deep affection for, despite its bonkers plot about nuclear-explosion ghosts, ageing rainfall, and otherworldly jar babies - because why not, goddamnit? - and one that's firmly lodged itself into my brain ever since I saw the final (final final) credits roll at the end of last year. I spent many a happy hour delivering parcels across the post-apocalyptic hills and mountains of the United States of Icelandic America, and several more chronicling the road trip adventures of the game's main characters in my ten-part BB Boys photo diary.
