Death Stranding: Director’s Cut Added to Luna+

It’s still too soon to tell how much of an impact cloud gaming will have on the industry. While things like the Google Stadia never truly took off, platforms like Xbox Cloud Gaming have steadily improved over the past few years, showing signs that with a good internet connection players may not need disks or consoles to play their favorite games. Amazon has heavily invested in cloud gaming with their Luna platform, and Luna+ is adding a heavy-hitter to its lineup of streaming titles.

Death Stranding Director’s Cut is joining the library of games on Luna+, Amazon’s cloud gaming platform subscription service. The service features titles like entries in the Fallout series, Fortnite, Assassin’s Creed franchise favorites, and more. While it’s a library dwarfed by the likes of Xbox Game Pass and PS Plus, there are great titles on this platform. That said, like many cloud gaming services, players’ experiences may vary based on internet speed and connectivity.

Amazon Prime members will be able to try Death Stranding: Director’s Cut at no extra cost as part of their membership in December for 1 month from December 1st at 9 AM (PST). Once this promotion ends, players must subscribe to Luna+ to continue playing the game. Amazon Luna+ regularly costs $9.99 a month and features newly added titles fairly regularly.

The Director’s Cut version of Death Stranding is the definitive experience which also introduces a new ‘Ruined Factory’ location, a treacherous underground compound packed with fresh dangers. Sam also now has a wealth of new delivery assists, from cargo catapults and ramps to a stabilizer that features thrusters that assist with cargo weight shifts and reduce the impact of landing when jumping from high areas. Other additions round out what was already a good game into a great one.
