Hideo Kojima took to Twitter this evening to introduce a new character in Death Stranding. Named “HEARTMAN”, he is played by Nicolas W Refn and described as follows:
“HEARTMAN is a member of BRIDGES. His heart stops every 21 mins,spends his time in the world of the dead for 3 mins and comes back by AED. 60 times/day.“
HEARTMAN cutscene that I introduced at SDCC is out now. HEARTMAN is a member of BRIDGES. His heart stops every 21 mins,spends his time in the world of the dead for 3 mins and comes back by AED. 60 times/day. Thanks to my best friend & filmmaker Nicolas W Refn for his appearance! https://t.co/VyHPy29Fcs pic.twitter.com/W7jNPdl8wx

Our Take
As you would expect with a new character introduction for Death Stranding, it’s certainly unique! Obviously we don’t understand the full significance of HEARTMAN yet but that time is rapidly approaching.
