For the first time ever, a Pokemon Go Trainer Battle (PvP) tournament was held, taking center stage as the first main event at the 2019 Pokemon World Championships.

Death Stranding: You Can’t See Norman Reedus’ Penis, Kojima Confirms

Hideo Kojima premiered brand new Death Stranding gameplay footage during tonight’s Gamescom Opening Night Live press conference. One ability Sam (Norman Reedus) has in Death Stranding, apparently, is relieving himself when he needs to. But don’t worry, Kojima confirmed players won’t accidentally see Sam’s penis in Death Stranding.

Speaking on stage during the Opening Night Live show hosted by Geoff Keighley, Kojima spoke through a translator about the urinating mechanic seen in the new Death Stranding gameplay footage.

“About the urine part, I have to say. It’s late enough to discuss about that, right?” Kojima began. “If you try to move the camera and try to see what he’s doing, Sam will move away so you’ll never see, actually, what he’s doing,” Kojima confirmed. Presumably this means if you try to move the camera and angle it to see Sam in the act of urinating, he will purposefully turn away from you.
