Yes, at this price point (-50%) and Play Anywhere support it's no-brainer. I'm on Series X and this release is just the excuse I needed to go back and replay Death Stranding, I finished it back in the PS4 days and loved it. It's awesome that I can play it again on my Xbox!
I think Death Stranding's an absolute masterpiece, people call it an walking simulator but it's really is an adversity simulator. Finished it on the PS4 pro about to have a slight upgrade with series S. I have no doubt that in the next few hours I'll be seriously contemplating an upgrade to the X.

First of all this is not the case, usually - its not the devs fault when a game is badly optimized, but of publishers, because they pay the devs for a certain amount of time-work and by implication a certain degree of quality. There are also the investors who pressure the publishers to deliver the game as fast a possible. The devs only do what they are told, payed and in the time-frame they are allowed.

6:10 You can really see the difference here. Both versions look good. I've been playing Death Stranding since launch and always recommend it to people. It looks amazing on ps5. It's awesome Xbox players finally get to experience this amazing game.
The S is perhaps the most underrated console of all time. It pretty much shows how unoptomized everything is. Death Stranding even after 5 years is still one of the best looking games in the world and it looks and plays fantastic on a little machine you can pick up for 150 bucks. Meanwhile some people are buying a 700 machine so that Sony can pump out insanely unoptomized games at 4k 30-60fps
Just yesterday I searched if this game was coming to xbox. And everything I came across said no, at the most I, I got a maybe. Imagine my surprise as well as others to see it's suddenly available 😅
I read an article that’s it’s because kojima wanted to release it multiple platforms but Sony wanted it as an exclusive, with the failure of concord, Sony sold the IP in its entirety to kojima to try and recoup some of its financial losses
I'm watching this on a 32" 720p TV that I use as my PC monitor... Aside from slightly mushy texture on the X|S, it's actually okay. Considering the X|S price plus game pass, it's still a valid purchase. Heck, in Indonesia where Microsoft doesn't officially sells Xbox, the X|S sales number is actually okay, at least it's still a profitable business decision to the importers.
And really puts into perspective the lack of skill of today's developers. It's hard to see a current generation game that looks better than this one, the Horizon Series, Red Dead Redemption 2, Batman Arkham Knight, Gears 5 etc. Most of the games that run like ass on Series S are simply ugly or look way worse than these last gen games, even if they utilize "next gen features".
Don't get me wrong.. I had a series s for 2 years. It was the coolest console ever coming from one s. It looks amazing, feels amazing, etc.. BUT.. A day ago, i bought a series x refresh edition and omg. It feels like a new generation. Words can't describe the amount of detail and different features, multiple graphics options and more. I play on a pro gaming TV that's vsync 4k 144hz and it looks exactly how the specs say. 3 times better than series s. There's no video or picture that can justify it. You just have to see it.
Does anyone have problem with saving game after using Quick Resume? In my case I can't save te game after lauching it via Quick Resume. When i start the game from the begining everything is fine.
This happened to me, too. It is rare for a game to have an issue with it, but not unexpected. I'll just avoid QR for the time being. Lucky I only lost 20 mins before I noticed.
Can’t even lie it’s a really good game. Especially for $20. The definitive edition is on sale everywhere right now; even on the mobile app stores. Get it while you can!
exclusivity for consoles will die soon (at least just for PS and XBOX), we have square, that they even say that console exclusives aren worth anymore (companies are loosing money doing this)
It comes at no surprise to me that they pulled this off on the S just look how good phantom pain looked on last Gen that game looks better than some of the games that came out this Gen
It’s not even an Xbox series s issue, it’s a dev issue. Devs just suck at doing their job. Series S is extremely capable and if devs were better at their job they could make use of it
Its a bit lower rez on SS(but still high enough; 1080 - 1440p I think). On SX is 4k or close to it. Also, some textures(like those for water) are lower quality. Overall is still well optimized for SS.
The decima engine best in the world. Xbox will have the best version of it with DS2. Fox Engine was damn good back in the day too, look at Ground Zeroes 60fps on ps4...
Very cool. I hope DS2 will not still be a Sony exclusive or timed exclusive. So happy the game is finally on XBOX so I don’t need to buy a PS5 just to play it. Of course it also came out in Mac. Out of curiosity, Why do you think Xbox will have the best version of DS2? I would think PS5 pro would be the best showing.
@weprinfilms idk how long the exclusivity for DS2 will be but I expect at least a year. It will be more demanding than DS1 and by the time it comes out the new Xbox is out which will completely outperform the PS5 pro.
You can't compare Wukong to this game, it's impossible, this game is ported to PS4 at the base, and the environments of the 2 games are really different, they are 2 completely different games
This is a game developed on PS4 at the base and in an environment relatively empty of NPCs, it is certain that the XS will not run out of steam on this game
Lol when this game first launched on ps5 gamers called it a boring walking simulator but now its on xbox everyone is praising the game yall are to funny
Sony should just sell the rights to everything they have to xbox honestly. They are trash at running things, and the whole console exclusive thing is old and needs to stop. Let games be for everyone. I have both consoles but i much prefer xbox.
You sound like a complete fanboy. I’m bet you were all good when Microsoft had all the exclusivity during the 360 era. Now that they are getting a dose of their own medicine everyone has amnesia. Keep pretending these companies love you. You are a dollar sign, nothing more.

So the 5 year exclusivity imposed by Sony is true...guess Xbox will be getting FFVII remake next year.

The optimization on series s is Great .
Game plays excellent on Series S!
Kind of puts to rest those "Series S is holding everything back" arguments. Well done.
Why hell blade and flight simulater looks better than this and starfield 😂
Keep in mind that Death Stranding its a PS4 at its core. SS its a relatively weak system, that doesn't mean it cannot be optimized for it.

good to see Xbox gamers able to experience this masterpiece, should have been available when it came to PC for Xbox but it's good it made it

NGL, the music in this vid is top notch chill vibes

Infinite Horizon - Tellsonic
All games from Kojima are good optimizing. The metal gear phantom pain runs at 60fps in ps4 and Xbox one
Both look great. I would say the the X is slightly sharper and better resolution than the s. But not by much.
Fair to say there's a noticeable difference between the two versions, main thing is that both run smoothly and look like a nice experience
It runs great on the S on quality mode with HDR one of the best looling enviroment I have ever seen giving me Alien - Prometheus vibes lol
