Kojima Productions and publisher 505 Games announced this Death Stranding Director’s Cut coming to Apple devices later this month.
The final version of Death stranding will be released on January 30 for iPhone 15 Pro models, specifically models with the A17 Pro chip, and iPad and Mac with M-series chips.
The game can be pre-ordered from today (January 23) on Apple App Store for $40 (£31 / AU$60.93), but it’s currently offering a special discount of up to 50%, bringing the price down to $20 (£15.80 / AU$30.46).
“Experience Hideo Kojima’s groundbreaking open-world adventure thanks to the graphics power of Apple silicon,” reads the official press release. It was also noted that the game will be released as a “universal purchase” allowing users to play cross-platform on the available Apple devices.
Death stranding was first launched in 2019 for PS4 and was known as one of the best PS4 games ever. The Director’s Cut was released in 2021 for PS4 and PS5 before being later ported to PC in March 2022, and is essentially the definitive way to play the game, with exclusive content for the edition including new locations such as a dangerous underground factory, as well as experience extensive story missions.
In Ny Breaking Gaming’s five-star review, we called the game “a wonderfully ambitious sci-fi adventure that combines gripping performances with a compellingly original story structure.”
Death stranding 2 is currently in the works at Kojima Productions for PS5, but doesn’t have a release date yet. The sequel was revealed at The Game Awards 2022 along with a trailer and while we don’t have any concrete story details, it was confirmed that Fragile and Sam ‘Porter’ Bridges will return as recurring characters.
