While some may not have been as impressed with the experience as much as others, that hasn’t stopped Kojima Productions from working on a PC release of Death Stranding and now, eight months after its original release, PC players will be able to see what everyone’s been talking about later today.

As a reminder, it will be available on both Steam and the Epic Games Store and we now know exactly what times the game will unlock for those who have already pre-ordered and pre-loaded it. While it will become available at the same time for everyone, the specific time does vary due to different time-zones.
The times are listed below:
7am PT 10am ET 4pm BST 5pm CEST
While Death Stranding on PC boasts a number of improvements over the original PS4 release, such as unlocked framerates and ultra-wide resolutions, players can also look forward to new content, namely some Valve and Half-Life related cosmetics like a hat that resembles Half-Life’s Headcrabs.
Those who may still be on the fence on buying Death Stranding again or dipping in for the first time might want to check out some of the reviews the PC version has received, as many outlets have praised and recommend it for both camps, pointing out how its narrative and themes are more relevant than ever.
As for the future, Kojima hasn’t confirmed that he’s working on any sort of follow-up to Death Stranding, but some suspect that he is, whether it be a sequel or a spin-off of some sort. This theory comes from some of Kojima’s tweets, which seem perfectly innocent on their own, but fans have combed through the images and spotted details that relate to the Death Stranding universe.
Given the game’s ending, a sequel isn’t entirely impossible and there’s certainly enough material for a separate spin-off game that could focus on a different character. But if such a project does exist, we likely won’t see anything about it for quite a while.
Death Stranding is available on PC and PlayStation 4.
