Death Stranding Director’s Cut from Kojima Productions and 505 Games was recently delayed to early 2024 for iPhone 15 Pro, iPad, and macOS. Following the delay, Backbone has revealed a new Death Stranding Director’s Cut themed Backbone controller in a Tweet showcasing the controller with Hideo Kojima. This design matches the Death Stranding PS4 Pro Limited Edition console controller and I assume this will be a super limited release. A price point or more information aren’t available right now, but I will be trying to get this as soon as possible. Check out the Tweet from Backbone below:

If you’ve not kept up with Backbone lately, read my interview with Backbone CEO Maneet Khaira about the updated controllers, customer feedback, subscriptions, and more here. The current universal Backbone USB-C edition has new magnetic adapters and other improvements. Details for the available models are here. If you do use the controller, make sure to try the Backbone App (Free). I’m still working on covering the new 2023 USB-C model with my iPhone 15 Pro, but you can read my thoughts on the lightning model of the Backbone One PlayStation Edition for iPhone here. What do you think of this limited edition Death Stranding Director’s Cut Backbone controller?
