*Apple continues to push into gaming with an award-winning addition*

There is yet another major AAA game arriving on the iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Initially teased and announced back at Apple’s WWDC 2023 event—the tech giant’s annual developers conference—"Death Stranding" will arrive on select Apple devices on January 30, 2024. From 505 Games and Kojima Productions, "Death Stranding Directors Cut" first premiered on the PS4 2019—later on the PS5—but will now be arriving on a device that can fit in your hand and on Mac laptops, which keep getting more and more powerful. Related: iPhone owners just got access to a life-changing feature Since its debut on console, "Death Stranding" has earned a number of achievements, including Best Performance for Norman Reedus and Best Action/Adventure Title at the 2019 Game Awards. This title is arriving after the likes of "Resident Evil 4" debuted natively on Apple devices, mainly after the company switched to making their own chips for better performance. "Death Stranding Directors Cut" will work on the iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max as well as iPads and Mac Desktops or Laptops with the M1 chip or newer inside. Apple Even better, it’s a universal purchase, meaning that once you get it and download it on your iPhone, you can also download it and play it on an iPad or Mac. It costs $39.99, but if you preorder it today, it is 50% off at just $19.99. The title is also rated M on the ESRB scale. Apple Silicon—M1, M2, M3 on the Mac or iPad, as well as A17 Pro on the iPhone—should deliver a pretty exceptional experience with impressive visuals with support for ray tracing and overall improved graphic rendering. Created by "Metal Gear" creator Hideo Kojima, "Death Stranding: Directors Cut" follows Sam “Porter” Bridges (voiced by Norman Reedus) as you explore a sci-fi wasteland through missions and open-world situations. Plus, the Director’s Cut boasts new locations and additional missions. So whether you’re a long-time fan of "Death Stranding" or want to try gaming on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac, this is shaping up to be a title you’ll want to at least play a bit.
