Update, 8/19/22:

That’s a fun headline to read, right? And it’s true because after teasing earlier this week that Kojima Productions’ Death Stranding was coming to PC Game Pass, Xbox announced that it hits the service next week. 

More specifically, Death Stranding will hit PC Game Pass next Tuesday, Aug. 23. Now, this might be somewhat surprising for those not caught up on Death Stranding’s journey from PlayStation 4, to PlayStation 5, and then PC. Sony and PlayStation funded Kojima Productions’ development of Death Stranding, and it’s a PlayStation intellectual property. 

However, a PC port was published by 505 Games, and it seems 505 Games and Kojima Productions are free to determine the whereabouts of the PC port of this game. As such, it’s now coming to PC Game Pass, a service owned by Xbox. Something tells me we won’t be seeing Death Stranding coming to Xbox Game Pass, though. 

“Windows 10/11 PC gamers can expect such features as ultrawide mode, photo mode, high frame rate, and cross-over content from some very well-known franchises,” an Xbox blog post reads. “What’s more, the PC Game Pass Edition of Death Stranding will also include the following items, which are unlockable as you progress through the story: 

Xbox seems aware of the questions surrounding this development and how a Sony game is coming to its PC Game Pass service, and it says, “we’ll try and cover as many of them as we can in a future Community Q&A guide.” The blog post says to stay tuned for that and keep an eye out on the 505 Games and Kojima Productions social media channels for more information.
