Hideo Kojima has announced thatDeath Stranding Director’s Cutwill be coming toAppleMac later this year. He also promised that Kojima Productions' future titles would also be coming to the platform.
Death Strandingis a cerebral, post-apocalyptic logistics simulator from the auteur behind the Metal Gear: Solid series, Hideo Kojima. DuringApple’s keynote presentationat the Worldwide Developer’s Conference on June 5, Kojima expressed his support for the Mac as well as his plans to bring future titles to Apple’s platform.
“I have been a die-hard Apple fan since I bought my first Mac back in 1994,” said Kojima.
He said thatDeath Stranding Director’s Cutwould come to Mac “later this year” and that “we are entering a new era for gaming on the Mac.” The Mac version of the critically acclaimed thriller is set to use “the latest Apple technologies to provide the best experience to our fans.”
Speaking of upcoming projects, Kojima stated that “This is just the beginning, and we are actively working to bring our future titles to Apple platforms.” Though not officially confirmed, this means thatDeath Stranding 2is also likely to receive Mac support down the line.
Death Strandingis hardly the first recent classic to become available on MacOS. One of the best strategy games in recent years,Crusader Kings 3is completely Mac compatible, alongsideStardew Valley,Hades,Minecraft, and even one of thebest RPGsof all time:Disco Elysium.
Apple is clearly trying to sell the idea that its platform is becoming increasingly video games friendly. Though its roster of titles isn’t nearly as extensive as the list of thebest PC games, the addition ofDeath Strandingis an impressive new feather in Apple’s cap.
