Breaking News: Death Stranding Delayed to 2024
Hey there, gamers! We’ve got some news that might disappoint a few of you. Kojima Productions’ highly anticipated game, Death Stranding, won’t be releasing on Apple devices until 2024. Yeah, we know it’s a bummer, but sometimes good things take a little more time.
A Delayed Arrival
According to the publisher, 505 Games, who’s responsible for the PC port of Death Stranding, and the studio handling the iPhone, iPad, and Mac port, the game won’t be hitting your screens in 2023 as promised. Instead, it’s been pushed back to “early 2024.” They shared this news through a short statement on Twitter, expressing their excitement to launch Death Stranding Director’s Cut on Apple devices, but also acknowledging the need for a little more time.
Now, we know what you’re thinking. Does this delay even matter? Well, if you’re not rocking the latest iPhone, the 15 Pro, you won’t be able to play it anyway. And if you’re an iPad or Mac user, you’ll need to have an M1 chip or newer in your device, which was released back in 2020. So, if you meet these requirements, you’re good to go—at least on those devices.
Apple’s Gaming Ambitions
It seems like Apple is making serious moves in the gaming space, going beyond just mobile titles. Alongside Death Stranding, they recently brought Resident Evil 4 Remake to iPhone and iPad, and they have more games in the pipeline. In 2024, Apple plans to launch games like Assassin’s Creed Mirage and The Division Resurgence on iPhones. It’ll be interesting to see how well Apple fares in the gaming world, right?
Curiosity About the Sequel
Now, let’s talk about what really has Death Stranding fans on edge—the upcoming sequel. It was officially announced about a year ago, and since then, fans have been eagerly waiting for more news. We can’t blame them. The original game left us with so many questions and mysteries to unravel. So, here’s hoping that the sequel will satisfy our curiosity and give us an even deeper dive into the Death Stranding universe.
But wait, there’s more! Kojima Productions is also cooking up something else for us. Hideo Kojima, the mastermind behind Death Stranding, is teaming up with Get Out director Jordan Peele to bring us a horror game called OD. Now, if that doesn’t get your heart racing, we don’t know what will.
A Call to Patience
So, gamers, we know it’s disappointing to hear that Death Stranding won’t be gracing our Apple devices until 2024. But hey, good things come to those who wait, right? In the meantime, let’s keep our eyes peeled for updates on the sequel and OD. And who knows, maybe by the time Death Stranding finally arrives, we’ll have even more amazing games to sink our teeth into.
Stay tuned, stay patient, and keep gaming!
