"I have been a die-hard Apple fan since I bought my first Mac back in 1994," said Hideo Kojima," and it has been a dream of mine to see my team's best work come to life on the Mac."
Kojima went on to say the team at Kojima Productions is working to bring future titles to Apple platforms.
If you have yet to play the definitive version of Death Stranding, it includes the addition of the Ruined Factory location, an underground compound with new dangers. It also includes a wealth of new delivery assists, from cargo catapults and ramps to a stabilizer function.
Expect amplified melee combat with enhanced moves such as the drop kick, and the new Maser Gun pacifies enemies with electricity. There is a new firing range location, and you can race vehicles on the new racetrack minigame. Sam can even ride Buddy Bots to traverse the wastelands with greater ease.
