The PC version of Death Stranding will no longer be released on 3 June as originally planned.

Instead, the game will now launch in July. The delay is related to last month’s incident, where Kojima Productions closed its offices due to a COVID-19 case.

Kojima Productions wrote on Twitter:

“Following the temporary closure of KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS, we have had to delay the PC launch of DEATH STRANDING to July 14, 2020, to allow more development time amidst the current work-from-home orders in place.

Thank you all for your patience and continued support!”

The game’s delay might be a bummer, but it’s perfectly reasonable considering the circumstances. In the meantime, I guess PC gamers who were looking forward to Death Stranding will have to make do with Walking Simulator.
