You’ve been hankering for “Death Stranding” goodness on Apple devices and it’s almost here.
Following a short delay, “Death Stranding: Directors Cut” will ship for the iPad, Mac, and iPhone 16 in the final days of January, its current App Store listing suggests that it should be out by January 31.
Death Stranding: Director’s Cut was announced for Mac at WWDC 2023 when gaming luminary Hideo Kojima spoke positively about the Mac’s place in the gaming world.
Back in September, it was learned that the game would arrive on iPads equipped with an M1 chip or later, as well as the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max.
Originally released for the Sony PlayStation 4 in 2019, Death Stranding is an action-adventure game set in a post-apocalyptic world, featuring Norman Reedus (“Boondock Saints,” “The Walking Dead”) as the lead character.
In the game, invisible creatures are a constant threat to the world, causing destruction wherever they go. The player takes on the role of Sam, a courier tasked with delivering packages to remote cities and connecting them to a wireless communication network.
Following its release, Death Stranding was highly praised by critics for its distinctive game design and surreal imagery. “Death Stranding” was Kojima’s first game after leaving Konami, the publisher of his renowned Metal Gear stealth action game series.
Stay tuned for additional details as they become available.
