Earlier this week, the official Game Pass Twitter account was enjoying foolish buggers with their profile pic, stating that “typically we identical to a great panorama image”. Immediately, web sleuths deduced that the panorama in query appeared suspiciously like Death Stranding, main many to imagine it was a teaser for Kojima’s mountaineering postal sim showing on the subscription service. And yep, they have been proper on the cash, with affirmation arriving in the present day that the BB Boys shall be pulling into Game Pass subsequent week, on August twenty third.
Announced by way of one other tweet that merely reads “particular supply”, the accompanying picture reveals Sam Bridges carrying a metallic case with a nifty PC Game Pass sticker slapped on the entrance that reads “Delivery Confirmation: August 23, 2022”, as you may see under:

At this stage, it is presently unclear whether or not the model in query is the usual version of Death Stranding or the newer Director’s Cut, which provides extra transportation strategies, an additional chunk of story and a Mario Kart-style race monitor to the sport, however I assume it will not be too lengthy earlier than we discover it, August twenty third being subsequent Tuesday and all.
As you most likely nicely know by now, I’ve invested plenty of time in Death Stranding over time. When it first got here to PC in 2020, I chronicled my journey throughout post-apocalyptic America with my BB Boys Road Trip photo-diary, and I even learn the official Death Stranding novels, largely so you did not have to. I nonetheless assume it is rad, and would strongly suggest giving it a go, if solely so you may resolve whether or not travelling round a run-down United States re-establishing a nationwide web reference to a child in a jar strapped to your chest the entire time is your sort of deal. And if the rumours a couple of Death Stranding sequel are to be believed, you may as well view this as a great alternative to get some background prep carried out forward of time.
August twenty third is an fascinating date for Death Stranding’s arrvial on Game Pass. I’m going into full hypothesis mode right here, however that is the identical day that famend Kojima fan Geoff Keighley shall be internet hosting his Gamescom Opening Night Live showcase. Could this be the primary of many such big-name Game Pass bulletins taking place subsequent week (with Sam Bridges delivering them, by hand, inside his sealed metallic case)? Or possibly we’ll see some type of different Kojima-related announcement at Gamescom this 12 months. My cash’s on the previous, personally, however we’ll discover out for certain subsequent Tuesday.
