![]() You’ll still want to use the specialized skeleton types for certain missions, but the support skeleton is good to have in reserve. Previous active skeletons favored either speed or strength. The new support skeleton is a well-rounded exoskeleton that increases movement speed and lets you carry heavier loads. Getting around the broken landscape isn’t as cumbersome as before. Fans of that series will appreciate the mission, despite its brevity. The Factory is Death Stranding’s most overt homage to Metal Gear. We won’t spoil things here, but one sub-mission tasks you with facing numerous, new MULE variants. The mission doesn’t affect the larger plot, but it ties up a lingering plot thread. Composed of three smaller missions, The Factory gives you more insight into one of the game’s central characters. The Factory is a new narrative mission that functions like all missions in that you acquire it from a base (in this case, the North Distribution Center). Vehicles handle nicely, and have their own pros and cons. It’s also a competent racer in and of itself. The race track doesn’t make much sense narratively, but it’s a nice distraction from the main game. The new Roadster is specifically made for racing, and is one of the best vehicles to use. ![]() You’ll drive variants of the Reverse Trike and delivery truck. Instead of flesh and blood people, you’ll race against holographic opponents driving holographic vehicles. What better way to unwind from a depressing post-apocalypse than by engaging in some good old-fashioned racing? The Fragile Circuit features 12 tracks that are reminiscent of the in-game highways you build throughout the course of the game. The missions are short and sweet, urging you to “play just one more.” The firing range only pits you against virtual enemies, so you don’t have to worry about dying. For example, some missions only let you use a single weapon, while others forbid you from using any firearms. There are dozens of missions, with each focusing on using specific weapons (such as the new Maser Gun) or completing tasks under certain parameters. If you’ve played Metal Gear Solid’s VR missions, then the firing range will be familiar. The new firing range is not only a great way of testing those weapons, but it’s also perfect for keeping your firing skills sharp. Stealthily completing missions keeps you alive during the game's early portions, but you’ll eventually receive high-powered weapons to take down human and inhuman foes. A letterboxed widescreen mode enables a 21:9 aspect ratio similar to the game’s cutscenes, providing a more cinematic experience. Fidelity mode looks and runs phenomenally on a 4K TV, so you’ll want to stick with that. Like Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut on PS5, Death Stranding: Director's Cut runs at 60 frames per second in both modes, so there’s no need to ever set the game to Performance. Performance mode is a vestigial remnant from the PS4 Pro. Like the PS4 Pro edition, Director's Cut has two visual options: Performance and Fidelity, and both feature HDR support. It’s difficult to make an already amazing-looking game appear better, after all. The PS5 version, with its 4K textures, looks stunning, but it isn’t much of a visual bump from what’s already available in the vanilla game. It will be harder for BTs or MULEs (the game’s primary enemies) to get the drop on you.ĭeath Stranding was already a visual powerhouse on PS4 and PC. In addition, the 3D audio helps you better distinguish enemy’s locations. Though not overt as Call of Duty's weapons, Death Stranding's assault rifles and shotguns have different resistance levels. You’ll now get some resistance from the trigger buttons when firing weapons. Although the haptic feedback implementation isn't quite as impressive as how it's used in Astro’s Playroom, it generates different gamepad vibrations (rumble) depending on the surfaces you walk. ![]() PlayStation 5 Featuresĭeath Stranding: Director's Cut on PlayStation 5 includes haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, and 3D audio, and they make the game world feel more immersive.
