Jan 23, 2024 4:51 PM

The highly anticipated game Death Stranding: Director's Cut is officially launching on Apple devices on January 30, offering a major boost for mobile gaming enthusiasts. The game, previously delayed, will be available for iPhone 15 Pro thanks to the advanced capabilities of the A17 chip. It will also be accessible on Apple Silicon-powered iPads and Mac computers, broadening its reach to a wider audience of Apple users.

As a universal purchase, players need only buy the game once to enjoy it across all compatible devices. Set at a standard price of $39.99, the game can be preordered at a reduced cost of $19.99. This move to Apple devices follows Hideo Kojima's reveal during the WWDC keynote last year, signaling his interest in future game development for Apple platforms. Currently, Kojima Productions is developing two games, Death Stranding 2 and OD, while looking to expand their presence on Apple hardware.

When is Death Stranding: Director's Cut available on iPhone and other Apple devices?

Death Stranding: Director's Cut will be available on January 30 for the iPhone 15 Pro, and likewise on compatible iPads and Mac computers equipped with Apple Silicon chips.

Background Information: Hideo Kojima and Kojima Productions have a long-standing reputation for creating innovative and cinematic gaming experiences, such as the Metal Gear series. Death Stranding, initially released on PlayStation 4 in 2019, was Kojima's first project following his departure from Konami. The game is known for its unique gameplay mechanics, storytelling, and the involvement of actors like Norman Reedus and Mads Mikkelsen. The Director's Cut offers enhanced features, expanded content, and refined gameplay over the original release.
