Comedy show host Conan O'Brien will also appear in Death Stranding, because it's a Hideo Kojima game, so anything can happen in it. According to Kojima, O'Brien plays one of The Wondering MC's supporting characters who enjoys cosplay and can give the player a sea otter costume if contacted.
Conan O'Brien appears as a prepper "The Wondering MC" in DS. You get “Sea Otter Suit” when you get connected with him. With this suit, you'll be able to swim easily in the river, you won't be drifted away! BB would be happy as well. ☔️ ✋

The protagonist Sam Porter Bridges will be able to put on this hat that looks like a dead otter in order to be able to swim in the river and not be swept away by the current. "Bridge Baby will be happy too," Kojima added in a tweet. It all sounds ridiculous, but the game itself still looks pretty strange.
Incidentally, Death Stranding includes quite a few characters based on Kojima's celebrity friends, including Norman Reedus, Mads Mikkelsen, Lindsay Wagner, Guillermo del Toro (Lindsay Wagner) and even Jeff Kaylie (Geoff Keighley).
During his show on TBS, Conan O'Brien talked about visiting the Tokyo office of Kojima Productions and being scanned to get into the game. This can be seen in the attached video. There is also footage from the studio's office and a collection of game designer toys (for example, Hideo Kojima has a figurine of himself).
While visiting the studio, Kojima and O'Brien watched the trailer for Death Stranding, and at the moment when the baby gives a thumbs up in the womb, Mr. O'Brien asked the game maker a question that has been tormenting the public for years: "What is wrong with you?" . Also during the conversation, Hideo Kojima revealed that Norman Reedus asked to make his character more masculine by building up Sam Bridges' muscles.
