[XSX, PC] Death Stranding Director's Cut $27.47 @ Xbox Store

350

Christ, I hope I got this right… Was looking for some games tonight and didn’t realise that Death Stranding has come to Xbox. I literally bought a PS4 back in the day just to play this game. Have not switched my PS4 on basically since I finished the original. Always wanted to play the directors cut, but didn’t want to stump up for a PS5 to play the director’s cut (I know I didn’t have too, I just wanted an excuse to upgrade the PS4)

Normal price is $54.95, so it’s about 50% off… I have not installed it, but I can’t find a “standard” version, only this version for this price, and it says it is 80gb, so I’m guessing it’s the complete game and not just the “director’s cut” expansion…

Also have no idea if you need and variation of “Game Pass” to play or buy it at this price either… so let me/us know.

Also for the PC version as well, seems to be the same price?

Guess I’ll find out soon enough. :D

  • Seems like PlayStation had a five year exclusive deal. Now with Kojima Productions holding all rights to Death Stranding, fingers crossed DS2 isn't another 5 years after the PS release. Either way, still a lot of games to play between now and then!

  • Awesome game!!! Seems to fall into the love it or hate it category for many though.

    Seems Kojima bought back the rights from Sony so it could be released on other platforms.

    This non English link is all I could find on the topic at short notice.

    Sequel will arrive one day too.

    I literally bought a PS5 this week so I could play the directors cut (and Spiderman). NOW I see this? 😅

    • You can still still enjoy Bloodborne :D Though not for long, since it's running pretty well emulated now.

      Absolutely not. Series S and X only.

      • The title got fixed after I reported it to mods.

    The link is $27.47 but when I search on the Xbox it's $34.97. Anyway, glad to see this come to Xbox. Finished it for the first time back in September and highly recommended it.

    Not a deal on PC, it's $24.80 along with 1 other game on Fanatical: https://www.fanatical.com/en/pick-and-mix/prestige-collectio…
    It also quite regularly goes below $20 and the base version has been given out free on Epic Games (might want to check if you already have) with the upgrade being $7.50.

      It's not the same version, the Fanatical link is for Steam only. This version gives you a license for both Xbox and PC + cloud saves.

    I love the Metal Gear Solid series. Simply amazing but this… you couldn't pay me to play this FedEx simulator. Death Stranding should have been a movie and not a game.

      Damn, I was going to give you $10 million to play this. Oh well.

      gameplay is genuinely interesting

      • I quite like the mechanics that Kojimmy bakes into his games. Like, there's opportunity for genuine DND type shit if you're crazy enough.

        One of my personal favorite instances was that I couldn't cross a river because the weight of what I was carrying was too much and I would've gotten swept away. So I threw multiple things across/into the stream, saw them float down and get caught in river banks. Crossed with all of my high value items undamaged, picked up the slightly damaged stuff and saved time from it in comparison to likely/probably losing it all on a single cross.

        Additionally, there's hidden telemetry that changes decals on the map to appear as if more people have walked across an optimal path, and this changes by the week. More info on that here: https://youtu.be/VJLzpX57FSw?t=416

      You could literally watch some gameplay, cause there's a LOT more going on than fedex simulator.

        Seen more than enough and it's not for me.

      this. kojima lost his luster with no Konami at the reigns giving him proper feedback his newer projects are getting stale. most havent even herd of peak Konami/Kojima. and yet hyping up the shill kojima has become. down vote i dont care proves how much society has degressed.
