CALABASAS, Calif. – March 30, 2022.
KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS and videogame publisher 505 Games proudly announce the release of the award-winning “DEATH STRANDING DIRECTOR’S CUT” for PC, Hideo Kojima’s definitive vision of his critically-acclaimed and genre-defying epic.

Most notably, DEATH STRANDING DIRECTOR’S CUT now includes the ‘Ruined Factory’ location, a treacherous underground compound packed with fresh dangers, plus Sam now has a wealth of new delivery assists, from cargo catapults and ramps to a stabiliser function.

Melee combat has been amped up with enhanced moves such as the drop kick, whilst the new Maser Gun pacifies enemies with electricity. Finding the perfect weapon loadout is now achievable thanks to the new firing range location, whilst vehicles can be raced on the new racetrack minigame. Protagonist Sam Bridges can even ride Buddy Bots to traverse the wastelands with greater ease.

Coming soon, DEATH STRANDING DIRECTOR’S CUT will also support Intel’s new Xe Super Sampling (XeSS) graphics technology for an unparalleled experience on PC. XeSS uses machine learning for elevated game performance and enables players to explore the unique environment of DEATH STRANDING DIRECTOR’S CUT in staggering graphical detail.
