Hideo Kojima loves to put his favourite celebrities in video games. Whenever someone pops up in a Twitter post posing with the legendary developer, I just know they’re going to end up as a scan in his latest triple-A blockbuster. The same goes forDeath Stranding 2: On The Beach.
Aside from the stacked main cast, which features the likes of Norman Reedus and Lea Seydoux, you also have porters portrayed by Chvrches, Ma Dong-Seok, and even the bunny-eared VTuber: Usada Pekora. In a world filled with evil ghosts and gun-toting bandits, a cute bunny girl with a love for carrots and inventions. Here’s how to find her.
Where To Find The Pizza Chef
Despite being a fictional anime girl,Usada Pekora is encountered as part of the main storyin Death Stranding 2.After connecting Heartman’s Lab to the chiral network and resting aboard the DHV Magellan, return to the facility terminal to be given your next main order.
Charlie will ask you to begin connecting the eastern part of Australiaby first recruiting a man known as the Pizza Chef, whose job is, you guessed it, to cook pizzas for people.
If you decide to travel on foot, be sure to equip thenewly acquired AI camouflage,which, when moving slowly, prevents homing missiles and mines from detecting you.
Follow the directions on your map to complete the order, but be careful when moving across the region asbandits have littered the sandy ground with homing minesthat will damage any and all vehicles if you aren’t fast enough to avoid them.
Where To Find The Data Scientist, Usada Pekora
Once the Pizza Chef is up and running on the chiral network, you will be given an additional main order in whichyou need to deliver a piping-hot pizza to the nearby Data Scientist. This isn’t a stuffy scientist in a labcoat, however, but none other thanKojima’s favourite VTuber, Usada Pekora.
This is also an express order, meaning you will need to reach Usada Pekora quickly, all while making sure the pizza remains flat and undamaged. The best way to achieve this is by using anoff-roader vehicleinstead of venturing out on-foot.
Usada Pekora is locateddeep in the eastern part of the continent, over the mountains and past the bandit camp mentioned earlier. Stick to the far-right, and you’ll have an easy enough time avoiding them, while anall-terrain vehicleshouldn’t have much trouble ascending.
Your objective is sadly not free from obstacles. Pekora has surrounded her base withgiant stone pillars triggered to explore and shatter into piecesupon contact, while the canyon wall is covered intarantula-esque chiral creaturesthat cause damage on contact.
Be careful none of these threats ruin your precious pizza cargo. If it does, you will need to start the order all over again.
Keep following the objective marker, and you will eventually arrive at a small outpost in which Pekora resides. After a quick small, she’ll link up to the chiral network and have a few orders for Sam to take on.
How To Get The Usada Pekora Hat
Upon recruiting her to the chiral network and increasing your connection with Pekora through completing orders or returning lost cargo, she will have an unexpected gift for you.
Reach two stars, and you will be rewarded with the Nousagi hat, a cute little bunny hat with two carrots positioned on either side. It also lowers the rate at which stamina is depleted.
