A pre-launch version of the highly anticipated game Death Stranding 2 has been leaked and is circulating on piracy sites, just two days before its official release scheduled for March 19 at 7:30 AM Pacific Time. The leak, which occurred through a flaw in Steam, allowed the game’s files, with a total download size of 113 GB, to be accessible in unencrypted format for an indefinite period, leaving users with the possibility of downloading the complete experience before its official debut.
A version not suitable for Russians
The piracy portal reveals that the leaked version does not include the voices in Russian, which has sparked comments and discussion among piracy-related forums. This is notable, as Steam allows the use of language packs that could have added these voices without complications. The absence of this aspect could not only limit the user experience but also influence the reception of the title among Russian-speaking players.
It is important to highlight that those who choose to download the pirated version of Death Stranding 2 will be excluded from the online experience that the game offers. This feature allows players to share infrastructures such as roads and bridges, a key component in the gameplay designed by Hideo Kojima and his team at Kojima Productions.
