What to Do on Amelie’s Beach in Death Stranding Episode 13

In the final arc of Death Stranding, Sam will be tasked with going to Amelie’s beach to try to talk her out of destroying the entire world. When you first reach there, it won’t be clear exactly what you’re supposed to do.

First, start running along the coast of the beach and you’ll eventually trigger a cutscene. After that, you’ll be given a gun as Amelie continues walking out into the ocean. At this point, it would appear that you have a choice between sparing and shooting Amelie.

However, there isn’t really a choice to make at all. To progress the story, you need to holster the weapon by pressing right on the d-pad, then run towards Amelie. Once you’re close enough, you’ll see a button prompt onscreen. Press the R2 button to hug her, and you’ll be able to continue the story.

After that, along with a few more scenes, you’ll be back on Amelie’s beach. Keep running along the coast to trigger more cutscenes to see the rest of the story.

To recap, here’s what you need to do on Amelie’s Beach in Death Stranding:

  1. Run along the coast of the beach to trigger a cutscene.

  2. When you’re given the gun, press right on the d-pad to holster it, then run towards Amelie and press R2.

  3. When you’re back on the beach, continue running along the coast to trigger a few more cutscenes to continue the story.
