Your journey starts on Mac

Death Stranding 2 unfolds through tension, distance, and the unknown. The game takes its time, then suddenly pushes you to adapt, survive, and keep moving forward.

Sam, in a much bigger world

Norman Reedus returns as Sam in a standalone sequel set eleven months after the first game. This time, the journey expands beyond America, opening new routes to Australia, with story elements also involving Mexico.

The environment becomes your enemy

Day and night cycles, dynamic weather, Timefall, earthquakes, sandstorms, and wildfires turn every delivery into a real survival challenge. The world doesn’t just look impressive, it actively works against you.

Stealth, strategy, or direct combat

Face enemies head-on, avoid them, infiltrate areas, or customize Sam with APAS upgrades. Shape your own playstyle, balancing stealth, mobility, and combat.

Reconnect Australia and Mexico with Shadow

Death Stranding 2: On the Beach isn’t built around real-time co-op. Its Social Strand System works asynchronously: roads, structures, paths, and player-created elements appear as areas get connected. On PC, this system is even more powerful, as PS5 and PC players share the same servers. Important note: save transfers between PS5 and PC are not supported. With Shadow PC on Mac, you get full access to the PC version, with the same connected world.

FAQ

What is Shadow?

Shadow is a complete Windows gaming PC fully hosted in the cloud. It’s the only virtual machine whose performance rivals that of a local PC. And unlike cloud-gaming services, you can install and run any game, app, or software: there’s no restricted catalog.

Can I install any software on my Shadow PC?

Your Shadow is a true professional Windows workstation. Install everything you need*: Adobe Suite, CAD tools, development IDEs, etc.

Is it compatible with all Macs?

Yes, both the Shadow app and the browser version work on most recent versions of macOS and computers.

How do I access my Shadow PC?

For each device of your choosing, you can download the Shadow PC software client for free; in particular, this will allow you to test the browsing quality and adjust your video quality settings to the highest resolution, such as 4k. When you need to quickly access your environment and files via a new device or a workstation that's limited in terms of software installation, you can now directly access your Shadow PC via a browser. No installation required, it's quick and easy: Just head to the pc.shadow.tech web page!

Are download speeds faster on Shadow?

Yes, with Shadow you get 1 Gb/s download speeds to your Shadow PC, even if your local internet connection is slow.

Is my image quality reduced compared to a local system? Is my lag increased?

In short: no. We provide enough power to meet your needs based on your chosen plan. Regarding latency, our advanced technology enables smooth usage even at low bandwidth (starting at 15 Mb/s), delivering virtually imperceptible latency. Of course, compression can impact image quality, and if your connection is too weak, you may notice a difference compared to the original image.

Does Shadow handle 4K?

Yes, Shadow does not limit the resolution, allowing you to run Windows, your games, and software in 4K UHD. Please note that some games may not support 4K or may experience reduced performance at this resolution. Additionally, higher resolutions require more bandwidth, meaning you'll need a faster and more stable internet connection compared to lower resolutions.

Can I use Shadow with two screens?

Yes, you can activate a second screen directly on the Quick Menu.
