I understand Sony owns the IP but its published by 505 Games on PC. Would be interesting to see this on GP.

Starfield? DS is owned by Sony and there's supposedly a sequel in production too.
Could be, but there's no footage or screenshots of Starfield with that look/grass/moss. Not from the June trailer at least.

Looks more like Death Stranding to me:

It's Death Stranding, 505 Games publishes the game on PC, so they can drop the game on PC Game Pass if they wanted.

No matter how you look at it, that is almost certainly an environment shot from Death Stranding.

Would be great. Death Stranding is one of my favorite games of all time. I haven't played the DC edition yet.

Definitely Death Stranding. Could be a MLB The Show situation where the publisher dictates whether it goes on game pass or not. In this case 505 Games for the PC version.

It's PC Gamepass's Icon correct?

Because if so, that's probably a loophole for getting the game on Gamepass.

Much like how Forspoken is still coming to the Windows Store with Xbox Achievements

Buy Forspoken | Xbox

Forspoken follows the journey of Frey, a young New Yorker transported to the beautiful and cruel land of Athia. In search of a way home, Frey must use her newfound magical abilities to traverse sprawling landscapes and battle monstrous creatures.

I'd put my money on something related to Hellblade first

No way Death Stranding is coming to Game Pass PC, did everyone suddenly forget the other thread about them blocking Game Pass releases. I fully expect they made sure games they funded are permanently off the service.

This would probably be the biggest PC Gamepass exclusive since the service started. The only other one I can think of that was relatively popular when it launched was Crusader Kings 3.

I remember times when people complained that Xbox was getting too much support while PC was getting less. Now it seems people will be (and are) complaing about PC getting too much support if DS is really coming to Game Pass.
It's inevitable that either platform will have their own perks/exclusives under the same service given the weird publishing situations for some of these games.

why would they tease the game and not just officially announce it?...earlier today they announced the full August PC Game Pass lineup...strange to put up a Death Stranding profile picture a few hours later

That's why GPU is the best value there and with family game pass being allegedly GPU, it would not matter.
It would still matter if you aren't an owner of both platforms, so you'd always look over and see the other side getting something cool and exclusive despite having the same service. If you have a capable PC and Xbox, it's a non-issue.

I think those reports were around specific games that Sony has active PlayStation console marketing deals with, to ensure that the investment isn't wasted. Death Stranding is quite far from being a PlayStation system seller anymore. The PC release came out over two years ago, and 505 did the marketing for it so I'd expect them to be able to do what they want with that license now.

I wonder if that's why they changed the name recently lol

Imagine if the trailer or whatever Kojima has been working on, is for the "DS on PC Gamepass" trailer lol

I would have thought Hellblade before Death Stranding. But it's not impossible. I guess?

of course it is, it's a Keighley x Kojima joint!
BUT if you think about it. It's a series of Hills...technically! They are being pretty Silent about it!

Sam has the flag for the Netherlands on his back. Which is linked to something.

The pieces are all there. If you squint.

I remembered that silly Netherlands thing and had to google where it came from. First result was a post on this board. Real good chuckle at that

I think DS is a plodding, self-indulgent monument to Kojima's ego, but I recognize that some people feel differently. Would be weird to see it show up on Game Pass, even if just on PC.
