The 2025: DEATH STRANDING Annual Photo Mode Campaign Begins![/h3]
KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS is pleased to announce that the 2025: DEATH STRANDING Annual Photo Mode Campaign has begun!
Last year, over 10,000 creative photos were shared throughout the campaign. Many thanks to all the Porters out there who participated. Your photos inspire us and our community!
It’s through this campaign we see many connections made across our community so we would like to show our continued support by going a little bigger this year.

Campaign Details[/h3]
Every month, KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS will announce a unique photo theme where Porters can share and submit their photos: 20 photos will then be selected each month. From those 20 selected photos, KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS staff will select one “Photo of the Month” winner each month.
At the end of the calendar year, the 12 “Photo of the Month” photos will then be featured as the cover for each month on the 2026 KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS calendar. This calendar will be sent to the Photo of the Month winners as a prize.
Also introduced this year is the new “Photo of the Year Award”, Hideo Kojima will select the top photo from the 12 “Photo of the month” photos!
We look forward to seeing your photo entries!
