Death Stranding 2: On the Beach is finally (almost) here. The PS5-exclusive sequel to Kojima Productions’ 2019 hit officially releases June 26, but early access starts tonight for the Digital Deluxe Edition. Fans who already preordered the Collector’s Edition also get 48-hour early access starting June 24. If the glowing Death Stranding 2 reviews have you considering upgrading from the standard $70 physical edition to the PlayStation Direct-exclusive edition with collectibles, you’re in luck: Death Stranding 2’s Collector’s Edition is in stock as of June 23.
And if you don’t want to drop $230 on the Collector’s Edition, there’s a more affordable PlayStation collectible up for grabs that also commemorates the game’s launch: the Death Stranding 2 Limited Edition DualSense Controller. Also exclusive to PS Direct, the limited-edition DualSense is in stock for $85 and releases alongside the standard edition. Meanwhile, Amazon is offering a 20% discount on The Art of Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, a 256-page hardcover book with concept art that releases November 11.
PlayStation Direct offers free shipping on all orders and both the Collector’s Edition and DualSense are currently listed as “launch window delivery,” which means they will arrive within one to three business days after launch.

Death Stranding 2 is the latest PlayStation exclusive to get a Limited Edition DualSense Controller. The black controller is accented with orange emblems and text from the game on the front handles and touchpad. The logo and motto of the fictional company Drawbridge covers most of the touchpad. Death Stranding 2’s title card is emblazoned in black on the back of the controller.
Like the Collector’s Edition of the game, the Limited Edition DualSense is exclusive to PlayStation Direct. As of June 23, it’s available to preorder for $85 for launch-window delivery.
