Order 70: Cremation: BB

  • Objective: Delivery BB to the incinerator.
  • Tips: This mission has you take BB to the local Incinerator - the same as the one you took Bridget's body to in the very mission mission. In case you forgot, head left once you leave Capital Knot City, and follow the river up into the mountains. There's a ladder and ropes that can help you across the river and up the cliff as you go - so don't worry if you don't have them on you. As you approach the facility, Sam will stop for a cutscene. After that, head inside and access the terminal for another cutscene - and the ending. Enjoy!.

How to Pass the time until the presidential inauguration in Death Stranding Episode 15

Episode 15, Tomorrow is in your Hands, rewinds the events of the game back two weeks, putting you in the shoes of Sam after he returns from Amelie's Beach.

This is an end-game state where you are free to continue playing - so feel free to continue raising the connections of facilities by performing Standing Orders, and finding any remaining Memory Chip locations you may have missed.

There is no end point to Episode, despite the suggestion you need to 'pass time' until the inauguration happens. Remember, we have already seen the inauguration as part of the ending, so won't happen again. So take your time and choose what you want to focus on now the story is over.

One final note - any cargo at a structure that was destroyed in the heightened storms in the last few chapters will be at the private locker in Capital Knot City for you to collect.

Congratulations on beating Death Stranding. We made it!
