Death Stranding by Kojima Productions will be available on the PC Game Pass from August 23. The title is currently only playable on the PS4 and the PS5. However, with the help of the PC Game Pass, players will have unbridled access to the game on PC.

It no longer comes as a surprise when the Xbox Game Pass offers a PlayStation exclusive. The first hint of Death Stranding appearing on PC came with the company's profile picture on Twitter, which gradually changed to resemble Death Stranding.

The Game Pass has established itself as a staple among gaming subscription services, and has become the first choice for most developers looking to debut their game on a large platform.


The PC version of Death Stranding will include all Xbox achievements

The PC Game Pass, which Microsoft created as part of the Xbox Game Pass, has a monthly cost of $9.99 and provides access to high-quality PC games.

Players on Windows 10/11 PCs will have access to the following features for Death Stranding:

  • Crossover material
  • Photographic option
  • A higher frame rate
  • Ultrawide mode

There will also be a number of items that will be unlocked as the game's plot progresses: Gold and Silver Power Skeleton, Gold and Silver All-Terrain Skeleton, and Gold and Silver Armor Plate.

An exclusive in-game item is the Chiral Gold/Omnireflect "Ludens Mask" eyewear, which is designed after the mascot of Kojima Productions.
