Del Toro and Kojima have collaborated in the past, on a 'Silent Hill' game that was abruptly cancelled by Konami. So it's safe to say that Del Toro is not a fan and is squarely in camp Kojima.

It seems Kojima is intent on featuring his friends in his game. We're beyond excited to see the terrifying Mads Mikkelsen in this trailer.

This isn't the first time that Kojima's friends have rallied to his side on the Kojima vs. Konami debate. Norman Reedus, who was the star of the cancelled Silent Hill game and stars in the teaser trailer of 'Death Stranding' famously posted this photoshop on his instagram:
