The ports were originally set to launch in 2023, but publisher 505 Games has said it needs “a little more time.”

Earlier this year, developer Kojima Productions and publisher 505 Games announced Death Stranding Director’s Cut for iPhone, iPad, and Mac, giving the game a 2023 release window at the time. 2023 is almost over though, and as some may have anticipated, the game has been hit with a delay. A new release date for the game will be announced early next year.

505 Games announced the delay in a recent Twitter post, saying, “Here at 505 Games and Kojima Productions, we are excited to launch Death Stranding Director’s Cut on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. We just need a little more time! Stay tuned for a new release date in early 2024.”

Recently, Kojima Productions announced that it had partnered with A24 (Everything Everywhere All at Once, Uncut Gems, The Whale) for its previously announced Death Stranding movie.

Death Stranding is available on PS5, PS4, and PC. It has been played by over 16 million players across all platforms.
