Hideo Kojima Doesn T Like To Call Death Stranding Director S Cut A Director S Cut

In case you somehow missed it, PlayStation announced during its most recent State of Play presentation last week that the upcoming PlayStation 5 version of Death Stranding, Death Stranding Director’s Cut, would officially release on September 24th. The PS5 version is a remastering of the original title by Kojima Productions, but it also adds a bunch of new changes to the video game like new fights and gameplay features. Given that it adds a bunch of content to an already whole video game, creator Hideo Kojima has actually said that he doesn’t even like to call it “Director’s Cut.”

2/2In the game, it is not what was cut, but what was additionally produced that was included. Delector’s Plus? So, in my opinion, I don’t like to call “director’s cut”.
