Death Stranding: Director’s Cut Arrives on iPhone 15 Pro Next Week

By | January 23, 2024

After missing its initial release window last year, publisher 505 Games announced today that Death Stranding is coming to Apple devices on January 30.

Death Stranding: Director’s Cut will arrive on January 30 for the iPhone 15 Pro series and Apple Silicon-powered iPads and Mac computers (e.g., devices with an M1 series chip or newer). The biggest takeaway is that Death Stranding will be available natively on iPhone 15 Pro thanks to the smartphone’s A17 Pro chip.

Like Resident Evil 4 Remake’s Apple devices port, Death Stranding: Director’s Cut will be a universal purchase; if you buy it once for one device, you can access the other versions, too, so long as you have a compatible device to run the game. The game will retail for $39.99, though those who preorder can buy it for just $19.99 on the App Store.

Death Stranding: Director’s Cut was announced at WWDC last year when Hideo Kojima appeared during the keynote to announce the port. More interestingly, Kojima revealed he is working with Apple to bring future games to its platforms. Though he did not specify what future projects he was referring to, we know his studio, Kojima Productions, is currently working on two games: Death Stranding 2 and OD.

In our review of Death Stranding: Director’s Cut, we said: “Death Stranding Director’s Cut is more accessible than the original, but feels like a compromised version of the director’s vision.”
