Death Stranding 1, 2 Update Adds Freebie and New PS5 Feature

Kojima Productions and Sony XDEV have launched a PS5 update each for Death Stranding Director’s Cut and Death Stranding 2: On the Beach. The patches mainly add support for PS5’s new Power Saver function.

The update for Death Stranding 2 also adds free Mandarin Chinese voice-over, which is a nice addition considering China is one of the biggest gaming markets and is becoming increasingly important for Sony.

All games that support Power Saver now display a little energy icon beneath the game tile on the PS5’s main UI. As of today, the feature is confirmed for/supported by the following games:

Days Gone Remastered Demon’s Souls Death Stranding 2: On the Beach Death Stranding: Director’s Cut Ghost of Yotei

To enable Power Saver, go to Settings > System > Power Saving > Use Power Saver.

There’s nothing more to Death Stranding 2’s update than what’s been mentioned above. Players have been asking for new endgame content, including a New Game+ mode, but unfortunately, there are no hidden surprises in this patch.

That doesn’t mean Kojima Productions isn’t listening, however. We expect more patches with further support in the near future, so stay tuned.
