How to unlock Gold pre-order and special edition items in Death Stranding

The first thing you should know is that none of the preorder bonuses you get with Death Stranding will show up in the multiplayer mode, it is all in the campaign and a new gold look brings out a different perspective on the character of Sam Bridges.

You will need to make sure that you have redeemed the preorder code that comes along with the copy of the game after you have done this you will then need to download and install them when you first start the Death Stranding.

There are a couple of items that you get to use from the beginning itself and these items will certainly look amazing when compared to the base version which the game offers.

You get the Gold Hat and Gold ‘Sam’ Sunglasses right from the beginning itself, then as you progress along in the game and unlock further items, you will notice that as soon as you unlock them you will be able to get the gold version of it.
