After just days have passed since Epic Games’ free game bombardment, the Death Stranding birthday effect has been one of the most wondered topics by gamers. Let us explain why Death Stranding asks for your birthday once you decide to start a new journey in this huge world of Death Stranding.
Players will be requested to enter their birthday at the start of Hideo Kojima’s Death Stranding when they start their trip. You are aware that the game uses some unusual mechanics, so why is it asking for your birth date?
The Death Stranding birthday question, then, is supposed to provide gamers with stronger DOOM effects based on their date of birth. So, let’s examine the impact of your birthday and determine whether it has any genuine significance on your experience of Death Stranding.
You can play Death Stranding on platforms such as:
What are the Death Stranding birthday effects?
After you enter your birthday, you’ll see the message “Higher levels of DOOMs abilities have been observed in those born under the constellations such as Cancer, Pisces, Cetus, Delphinus, and Gigas”. According to what the message seems to be saying, people who were born in a particular month will experience a Death Stranding birthday effect. But we’re not so convinced about that.
The other three constellations are less well recognized than Pisces and Cancer, which are both rather well known. In light of this, we have included the five constellations that are cited about the Death Stranding birthday effect below.
- Cancer: June 21-July 23
- Cetus: November
- Delphinus: September
- Gigas: January
- Pisces: February 19-March 20
Theoretically, if you choose one of the aforementioned days as your Death Stranding birthday, you’ll have access to DOOM’s powers at a higher level. Having said that, it doesn’t appear to have much of an impact thus far on the players’ base stats in the game. Although we haven’t seen anything about it yet, likely, it will later in the game uncover some sort of easter egg or another hidden object. To be cautious, you may want to set one of the aforementioned dates as your birthday in the game just in case there is a bonus. Oh, and since you’ll receive a cake on your birthday, you might want to create it as soon as possible!
Does your birthday affect anything in Death Stranding?
According to the widespread belief, it doesn’t do anything significant, so regardless of the day you choose, you won’t have a better or worse experience. Regardless of the day you select, a special birthday cutscene will be shown to you.
How do you trigger the Death Stranding birthday scene?
On your birthday, simply visit Sam’s private room to access the Easter egg of Death Stranding birthday effect. Sam’s desk has a special item in addition to the regular assortment of Monster Energy Drinks. A flashback sequence will show in the elevator while you’re in it, so you can eat a slice and then move on to your next goal.
