Customer Ratings & Reviews

Good game would recommend giving it a go if you’re interested.

I never thought I'd ever get into a deep storytelling game about a porter who goes on a life-changing mission; an epic journey full of plot twists and intrigue, to connect a broken country together, and reestablish the United States for better or worse, but I was taken aback by the scope of realism that Hideo Kojima put into this game. And the most mind-boggling part is ... you have a newborn baby strapped to your chest the whole time! Whaaa?! At first glance, you may think it's just a slow paced, boring fetch quest, from A to Z, making mindless deliveries to and from, but you'd be wrong because just about everything matters on your journey before you set off--carry weight, how the environment affects your abilities, your equipment, the enemies you might encounter, fatigue, and so much more. It's definitely a stimulator of sorts, and once you're methodically taught the basics, the game leaves the rest to your own ingenunity to make it to your destination and back. The sheer amount of depth involved is what makes this game either grip you by your teeth or completely enrages you. Your worst enemy will either be bodies of water or mountains. Ha! Most importantly, this is like a virtual game of FB, where the only interaction from other online players is hearing a distant echo, sharing what complications they've built that may assist or hinder your travels, but you honestly get engrossed in the game's culture of everyone working together tirelessly and daily to create a better world of tomorrow to make your lives easier mission to mission, and through much of your hard work you'll be given--literally--likes to boost your morale and motivation to keep playing the way you want. Every little good deed you do, for the NPCs or others, you'll be rewarded material and items that you will inevitably need on this grand journey of exploration. Moreover, there is a grading system for how well deliveries are made based on your speed, cargo condition, quantity, distance traveled, and more. This game becomes highly addictive! With amazing, realistic graphics, great acting from Norman Reedus, a very heartfelt musical score, and gameplay that is tailored to be persistent and fresh every time you enter the world of Death Stranding, you'll be engaged to the very end. Without spoiling anything about the enemies you'll face in the game, let's just say there are very monstrous entities that come out during the rain that will make your skin crawl and fill your heart with dread. Paranornal experiences! The only big downside to a game of this epic scale is that there is A LOT of necessary reading to draw you into the lore, to teach you how to play effectively to survive, and everything else in between. If you don't mind methodical games that require a fair amount of reading, a robust menu system with a steep learning curve, and things requiring checks and balances, then this game is for you. I will say that this game took me literally two weeks to beat. It's that long of an expansive narrative that takes you into what feels like a deep movie trilogy. This game is a blockbuster worth trying--and once you're hooked, you're in for the long haul. Safe journeys! ✌️

Awesome game if you like weird stories. Very strange and dark yet gripping. Can be boring for most people that just want to shoot stuff constantly. Lots of slow walking. Awesome storyline and visuals and gameplay if you want tactics and a break from constant button mashing though

Great graphics, in third person. large area to explore. very interactive world. interesting story line. very realistic.

This game is criminally underrated. The gameplay loop is satisfying, the story is enthralling and the individual performances are so solid. Can’t wait for the sequel, highly recommend this one for anyone.

Death Stranding Director’s Cut on PS5 is a vast improvement over the original PS4 version. The upgraded graphics, smoother frame rates, and faster loading times make a huge difference in the overall experience. The new content and features add even more depth to an already unique game, making it feel fresh and engaging all over again. If you enjoyed the original or are looking to experience it for the first time, this is the definitive version to play. Absolutely worth the upgrade!

This game is not for me. I tried giving it a chance. But it’s not it.

This is my 2nd time buying the game as I had already 100% completed the original release on the PS4. This updated PS5 release has extra content, and I will absolutely be playing through it and 100% completing it again. Don't listen to the haters who call this "UPS/Walking Simulator"...yes there is a lot of traversal, a concept that exists in most large open world games. The story is very well written, and even just the music tracks alone are enough to make me love this game. Hideo Kojima is by far one of the best game/story developers of his time. I cannot wait for the recently announced Death Stranding 2 to be released!

One of these best games I’ve played in a long time. I’ve not gotten very far but that’s because I have a rage quit problem. I’ll jump back in from time to time when I can, graphics and amazing, storyline is solid.

Overall it’s a great game. I purchased it on console due to my pc issues. Graphics are great, storyline is great. Definitely one of my favorite games. Recommend to anyone into RPG.

Always heard middling things about this game but found a beautiful and surprisingly addicting experience that's both unique and rewarding. Exercise a little patience and your efforts will be rewarded!!

Start's off slow, but ramps up and becomes one of the best PlayStation games ever made. The Director's Cut add many improvements that help the journey through a postapocalyptic America go smoother. The story is eclectic, but interesting. Kojima's vision is strange, but compelling and pushes the player further than they want to go in a session, wanting to uncover the mysteries surrounding Sam and BB. Simply a must play!

Seems like a game worth playing as the 2nd part of the series was released. I can see why running around in the game is kinda annoying, but brings an open-world charm to it.

no loot box bs no garbage at targeting kids to spend their parents money. a good ole fashioned immersive world, fantastic story, and an insanely unique and immersive gameplay loop!

I will be totally honest, Death Stranding was absolutely boring the first time i played it. It looked phenomenal but all you do is play delivery boy with a convoluted story. I gave it another go around and man did it click for whatever reason. The story takes some time to understand and the gameplay is not for everyone, but for me it turned into an experience i wish i could relive again blind. It has become one of my favorite games of all time!

Pefect game, amazing music, amazing graphics, amazing story

This game is incredible, amazing graphics and this remaster is beautiful. Takes a bit to get into, but once you do, you will love it.

It’s a wild game, a slow burn. Walking simulator in the best way. The environment is your main enemy in this game. Story is wacky but fun, the atmosphere and designs of everything are so spooky and cool, and delivering an overwhelming ton of packages to recieve an S+ feels great (‘:

The graphics are simply stunning. The soundtrack by Low Roar running throughout the game is sublime and fits perfectly to the gameplay. It can get quite emotional at times. The gameplay is somewhat slow but that's perfect for me to de-stress after a hard day at work. The story is strong and engaging, this is behind the mind of Hideo Kojima. I would definitely recommend.

one great game for the ps5 console game playing. great grafics, great playing, great storyline.
