As of now, it appears thatDeath Strandingwill not be releasing on any other platforms. ThoughMetal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Paindid release on Xbox One, Kojima’s games have often been released exclusively to PlayStation.Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eaterinitially only launched on PS2, for instance, whileMetal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriotshas remained a PS3 exclusive since its release over a decade ago.
Death Strandingremains one of the most-anticipated games of the year, both because of Hideo Kojima’s track record and the numerous stars set to appear in the story. Alongside protagonist Norman Reedus, the game features Léa Seydoux, Mads Mikkelsen, Guillermo del Toro, and evenConan O’Brien. Some of these actors will essentially be making cameo appearances, while Mikkelsen and Seydoux will play major roles in the story.
The bizarre narrative involving apparitions, powerful babies, package delivery, and reconnecting a fractured United States has bewildered us thus far, but that is something we’ve come to expect from Kojima over the year s– we look elsewhere for straightforward storytelling.
Death Strandingwill release for PS4 on November 8. Alongside the standard version of the game, there is also a Digital Deluxe Edition, a Special Edition with a steelbook, and a Collector’s Edition with a baby statue. Given that the PlayStation 5 is due to release in just a year, it’s also possible that Sony will bring an enhanced version to its next-generation system, as well.
