Sony's PS4 exclusive, "Horizon Zero Dawn," contains a small nod to Kojima Productions, which is the maker of another upcoming PS4 game, "Death Stranding." Sony and Guerrilla Games' upcoming open world adventure contains a couple of interesting Easter eggs that refer to Kojima Productions' mysterious game "Death Stranding" in the form of items that can be used and traded with merchants.

During your adventure, you will come across various items which can be traded with merchants. Previously in the game, gamers have discovered a pair of Very Rare-quality items that might catch the attention of eagle-eyed players, as per Games Spot. Both of these have icons which feature a prominent resemblance to the silhouette of the Kojima Productions logo.

Kojima is using Guerrilla Games Decima Engine for Death Stranding, a tool so powerful he refers to it as a "rocket," according to VG247. And it seems the love is mutual, with "Horizon Zero Dawn" developer Guerrilla Games hiding references to Kojima's forthcoming game in the post-pre-historic-robot-dinosaur action adventure. Moreover, it looks like the love is mutual, with "Horizon Zero Dawn" developer Guerrilla Games hiding references to Kojima's upcoming game in the post-pre-historic-robot-dinosaur action adventure.

However, there are three "Death Stranding" items in total, which you can see in the video below from Arekkz. There Stranded Necklace, a reproduction of the necklace worn by "Norman Reedus" in the first trailer, as well as the Stranded Shackles, again from the first trailer.

"Horizon Zero Dawn" is out this week for PS4 and it looks to benefit greatly from the added power of the PS4 Pro."Death Stranding" doesn't have a release date yet so we're just going to have to pine for it until Kojima reveals more info, which quite possibly happened at E3 2017.
