In an unexpected twist for Mac, iPhone, and iPad gamers, the highly acclaimed Death Stranding Director’s Cut is set to debut on Apple devices starting January 30th. This release marks a significant stride in Apple’s push to showcase the gaming capabilities of its M-series chips, providing an immersive experience for players eager to explore the post-apocalyptic world alongside Norman Reedus.
However, there’s a catch – only iPhone 15 Pro models and Macs or iPads equipped with Apple’s M-series chips will be able to run the game. The exclusive nature of the hardware compatibility is expected to bring a unique gaming experience, albeit limited to the latest Apple devices. The game comes with a price tag of $39.99, but early birds can take advantage of a 50% discount during the preorder period, making it available for $19.99.

Originally announced by Hideo Kojima at WWDC 2023, this Director’s Cut version for Macs promises exclusive content, including a “dangerous underground factory,” expanded story missions, and new delivery assists such as cargo catapults and a newly-added stabilizer function. Notably, the game incorporates items from popular titles like Half-Life and Cyberpunk 2077, adding an extra layer of excitement for players.
Apple had previously unveiled the iPhone 15 Pro port for Death Stranding Director’s Cut during its Wonderlust iPhone launch event in September. This move aligned with Apple’s strategy to position its devices as capable gaming platforms, leveraging the power of Apple Silicon for an enhanced gaming experience.
Among the unique features of the game, the inclusion of weird babies, a trademark of Hideo Kojima’s distinctive narrative style, is sure to intrigue players. The star-studded cast, including Norman Reedus, Mads Mikkelsen, Léa Seydoux, and Lindsay Wagner, contributes to the cinematic appeal of the open-world action game.
For those considering downloading the game, it’s essential to note that the Mac version occupies a substantial 69.75GB of storage, providing a visually rich and immersive gaming experience. On the iOS front, the initial download will be 1.78GB, ensuring that players can quickly dive into the action-packed world of Death Stranding Director’s Cut on their iPhones.
