The new Kojima Productions action video game Death Stranding is not only a superb game with a phenomenal cast, and a cool storyline, it also comes with an excellent soundtrack.
The best song on the Death Stranding soundtrack in my humble opinion, however, is the title song — Chvrches’ ‘Death Stranding‘.
The song was written by the Scottish band as an original track for the video game and, as the game’s writer, designer and producer Hideo Kojima said in a tweet about this, the ending song of the game, and the band —
“You can cry just by listening to this song. You’ll find out the true value of my strand with them in the game”.
CHVRCHES has provided their original song called DEATH STRANDING for the ending song of game, DS, coming Nov 8th. It’s an amazing song and available on streaming now.

Chvrches also gave a lovely live performance of ‘Death Stranding‘ on The Late Late Show with James Corden a couple of weeks ago.
Listen to Chvrches ‘Death Stranding‘ and watch that beautiful live performance in the videos below. It is a gorgeous song but oh so incredibly sad.
Death Stranding, the game, is now available on PlayStation 4, and will also be released on PC in mid-2020.
