Kojima Productions? three-year development of Death Stranding is nothing short of impressive. The studio began production in 2016 and is already releasing a finished product. Clearly, some of this was made easier with the help of Guerrilla Games, whose Decima Engine powers Death Stranding. In addition, it?s known Kojima Productions had extra assistance from the Horizon Zero Dawn team. The public didn?t quite know to what extent, however. According to Death Stranding?s credits, over 70 staff members from Guerrilla Games took part in developing Kojima?s latest.
Video Game Chronicle took note of the sheer number of Guerrilla developers cited in Death Stranding?s credits. Apparently, of those 70 Guerrilla staffers, 40 served as engineers for the Kojima project. This includes a handful of key Horizon Zero Dawn programmers. The Killzone studio also aided Kojima Productions in departments such as animation, art, audio, cinematic, and visual effects. Interestingly, Horizon?s Senior Quest Designer, James Kneuper, received a ?quest design? credit for Death Stranding, according to VGC.
