How to Detect BTs in Death Stranding 2
Before we get into how to kill or avoid BTs in Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, let’s first discuss how to detect them. There are multiple ways to know if BTs are nearby.
The first, and the most reliable method, is bychecking the map and looking for any red ghost indicator.These show if BTs are in a given area. Feel free to use the map filter tool to make it easier to locate these indicators.

Death Stranding isn’t coming to the Switch 2, but maybe Nintendo is going to them instead?
The second way to detect BTs is through theOdradek Sensor.If you enter an area with BTs, the game will slow down and the Odradek Sensor will start going crazy and beeping, notifying you of BTs nearby.
If you enteran area filled with Timefall (rain)and thehue of the environment is red, then you have just entered BT territory. However, the environment doesn’t always turn red.
How to Kill BTs in Death Stranding 2
Killing BTs inDeath Stranding 2: On the Beach is harderthan it appears to be.Normal weapons don’t workon them as they absorb standard ammunition, rendering many guns in the game useless against them.
However, there are special weapons in the game that do deal damage to BTs. Theseweapons have the label “MP” after their name, such as Machine Gun [MP]. The MP ammo is a good indicator that they’ll beeffective against BTs.
While many guns are considered MP, not all of them areconsidered powerful against BTs. To see which ones are stronger against this enemy type, hover over the weapon in the Fabricate Equipment menu andtake note of the “Anti-BT” section on the grid.
The more color appearing in the Anti-BT section of the grid, the stronger the weapon is against BTs. For example, the Grenade Pistol is completely filled in the Anti-BT area, meaning it’s really powerful against these monsters.

This guide explains how to construct Online Aid Requests in Death Stranding 2 On The Beach.
While having a reliable Anti-BT firearm is crucial, I also recommend havingBlood Grenadeson hand. Blood Grenades deal continuous damage to the BT, making them a reliable way to kill them.
Just make sure the grenade’s radius turns red before throwing it, since blue means it won’t hit them.
How to Avoid BTs in Death Stranding 2
If you prefer avoiding BTs andtaking the stealth approach, then there are tricks to doing so. Your best friend is going to be thehold breath feature, which can be done by holding down R1.
Whenever you need to sneak past a BT, hold your breath to increase your chances of going undetected. Make sure todo this while crouchingto reduce the amount of noise you make.
Remember, Sam can only hold his breath for so long, so keep an eye on the stamina bar and take a breath when it gets close to depleting.
If the stamina bar depletes while holding your breath, BTs will hear you and hone in on your location.
Players can alsoavoid BTs by building Timefall Shelters. Thesestructuresrepel any BTs from coming near you, making it a reliable way to take a break and think about your next move.
Another way to avoid BTs is by simply opening your map and setting a waypoint away from the area. BTs only cover a certain amount of ground, so it’s reliable to go around the entire area toreach your delivery point.This will make your delivery longer, but it’s much safer.
I noticed that the BTs in Death Stranding 2 are much simpler to avoid than the first. Simply put, they don’t have a very large detection radius. So as long as you keep your distance, you’ll be fine.
