Death Stranding is an action game developed by Kojima Productions. It is the first game from director Hideo Kojima and Kojima Productions after their split from Konami in 2015. It was released by Sony Interactive Entertainment for the PlayStation 4 in November 2019 and by 505 Games for Windows in July 2020. (Wikipedia).

Engine: Decima. We test using the Very High preset, with TAA, DX12 API.

 

As for Death Stranding, this a title where we see more benefit to the Gaming X Trio's increased clock speed as we step up in resolution. Demonstrating this, the card is 2% faster than the Founders Edition at 1080p, 3% faster at 1440p and then 4% faster at 4K.
