First Major PS Exclusive Coming To Xbox!

Story Highlight
  • Death Stranding Director’s Cut has now launched on Xbox Series X|S and Windows PC out of nowhere.

  • To add even more fire to the hype, Sony announced that Kojima Productions now owns the Death Stranding IP.

Death Stranding has proven to be one of the most popular exclusives for the PlayStation ecosystem. However, after years of patience and speculations, Kojima Productions has now shadow-dropped the whole game on Xbox Series X|S and Windows PC.

Many fans thought that we would see a formal announcement and marketing before such a huge launch, so no one was expecting such a massive surprise.

Why it matters: Death Stranding, releasing on Xbox Series X|S consoles and Windows PC, has caught everyone in the community off-guard.

The studio also announced that Death Stranding now has over 19 million porters that have ventured into the world of the eponymous game. That’s not all; in another gargantuan surprise, the IP now also belongs solely to Kojima Productions instead of Sony.

Recent speculations in the community suggests that Death Stranding 2 might not be a PlayStation exclusive, after all.
