Hololive Vtuber Usada Pekora Appears in Death Stranding 2

Kojima Productions announced that Hololive Vtuber Usada Pekora will appear as an NPC in Death Stranding 2: On the Beach. She’ll be one of the Preppers that Sam Porter Bridges can visit and assist during the game. The developer also shared a brief teaser on social media, hinting at what she’ll look like in-game. The Death Stranding 2 Usada Pekora clip is quite brief, and it does confirm the Hololive Vtuber character model of her original, default costume will appear as her hologram in-game. We first see Sam head to the bunker to make a delivery. As he leaves, we hear Pekora call out to him. He thanks her, and she replies in kind. The entire interaction uses the Japanese voice acting option for the game, so it is unknown if she'll speak in English or Japanese for the English version of the game. Here’s the full teaser trailer of the interaction: https://twitter.com/KojiPro2015_EN/status/1928043654746362124 The follow-up tweet only confirms that she is a Prepper NPC we’ll meet and assist. The developer didn’t talk about any other elements tied to her and her appearance. It isn’t entirely unexpected that Usada Pekora will appear in Death Stranding 2, as Hideo Kojima talked about the Hololive Vtuber and interacted with her before. First, he shared a post on social media with several screen captures of one of her stream in August 2023. Then in August 2024, she visited the Kojima Productions offices. We often end up seeing people he references online showing up in his projects as guests. Death Stranding 2: On the Beach will come to the PS5 on June 26, 2025.
