YOJI SHINKAWA’S 10 FAVOURITE DEATH STRANDING PC COMMUNITY PHOTO MODE CAPTURES

If you’re already part of the DEATH STRANDING PC community, you’ll know just how much we love photo mode here at 505 Games and KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS. We are amazed with what our Porters can do with the tools in game and the sheer volume of content that already exists over on the Steam Community Hub. While we love to run regular showcases highlighting the amazing level of creativity demonstrated by our players, we felt it was time to do something a little special with our virtual photographers.

Earlier this month, we invited our Steam community to take part in our next showcase, but one with a difference. This time, we invited KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS’ Yoji Shinkawa (Art Director) to be a judge and pick out his 10 favourite captures from your submissions. And of course, you didn’t disappoint!

In total, we received around 1500 photo mode captures, so firstly, let us take this opportunity to say thank you! You flooded our Steam Community Hub with your stunning shots, and we hope you’ll continue to share them. In fact, please keep doing what you’re doing and continue documenting your journey. Behind the scenes, we are planning another opportunity for you to share them as part of a second event. But more on that later!

In the meantime, and in no particular order, here are Yoji Shinkawa’s 10 favourite captures and his comments.
