Unlock Vehicles & Parts in Death Stranding 2: Full Guide

In Death Stranding 2: On The Beach, the use of vehicles and structures takes a front seat when porters, especially the protagonist Sam, encounter heavier cargo, rougher terrains, and more perilous threats. Overcoming hurdles and fighting enemies involves careful planning to customize and use your vehicle.

Players must manage to override the Tri-Cruiser available during the initial hours of the game set in Mexico. In order to best take advantage of the Tri-Cruiser and later Off-Roaders, you should outfit them with parts and weapons to combat threats like the Brigands and Ghost-Mechs or to boost battery life.

Although most additions and upgrades can be unlocked by progressing in the story, some must be done by leveling up select facilities, preppers, and outposts all over Australia. In particular, one could only customize or upgrade in places with a garage or the DHV Magellan.

This guide explains how to unlock all vehicles and their parts, including a detailed overview of each vehicle’s use and statistics.

Tri-Cruiser

The Tri-Cruiser is an electric trike that one sees early in the film in Mexico. It is fast and agile. It is capable of climbing steep hills and doing wheelies on rough paths. Although it can float on water, floating can quickly drain the battery. It can be taken out by electricity strikes not so rare in nature.

Pickup Off-Roader

The Pickup Off-Roader can transport heavy loads thanks to its battery-powered flexibility. It is capable of travelling on a variety of surfaces but works best on the road. Don’t forget: moving in water uses up battery quickly and electric attacks can freeze its movement temporarily.
