After hoping for a release toward the end of 2023, we now know when the Death Stranding Director’s Cut will be landing on iOS and Mac devices. 505 Games, the team handling the port, has confirmed the title will be delivered next week.
The release will make the definitive version of Hideo Kojima’s 2019 hit available to a substantial new audience. It’s playable for everyone with an iPhone 15 Pro or iPads and Macs with the M-series chip. It will be available for download via the Apple App Store on January 30.
The Director’s Cut was initially released for PlayStation 5 in September 2021. It was then followed with a PC iteration in March 2022. Within it comes the base game, as well as a new underground factory location, expanded story missions, and various delivery assists to make navigating terrain a bit easier.
505 Games is publishing the port. The Death Stranding Director’s Cut is being listed on the App Store for $39.99. However, those who preorder ahead of the January 30 launch can enjoy a nice 50% discount on their purchase. It’s the first of potentially many future titles that Kojima has committed to bring to Apple’s platforms.
Players who own multiple newer Apple products should be aware that the game incorporates Apple’s Special Delivery feature. This enables those with Mac and iOS devices to purchase the Director’s Cut once and have it playable across all platforms. Just be sure to have space available, as the Death Stranding Director’s Cut on iOS and Mac comes in at a sizeable 69.8 GB.
