Continuing the development of Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, director Hideo Kojima announced through a post on social media platform X that actor Shioli Kutsuna has wrapped up her part of the filming, scanning and acting required for the upcoming game.
In a post on X, Kojima thanked Kutsuna with a cute video where he presented her without a bouquet of flowers for her work on Death Stranding 2: On the Beach.
As part of her work on the game, Kutsuna had to get 3D scanned for her performance capture in the game. “That’s a wrap for Shioli Kutsuna,” posted Kojima. “Thank you so much for your hard work!
Despite the challenges of the pandemic, she handled 3D scanning, performance capture in LA, and both English ADR and Japanese voice recording across various locations.
Great job, and much appreciated.” The fact that Kojima thanked her for her work during the pandemic indicates that Kutsuna had been working on her role in the Death Stranding sequel for quite some time.
