Quick Resume seemingly behind Death Stranding’s Xbox save bugThe issue was spotted on Reddit, with players commenting that the game wasn’t saving at all and that they had to start a new game when quitting. However, commenters quickly realized the issue was down to the Quick Resume feature of the Xbox Series X|S, which can cause trouble, and that exiting the game and making sure it wasn’t in Quick Resume before loading back in was a way around it. The same issue was noted by Windows Central’s Jez Corden on X, who also noted that players should remove Death Stranding from Quick Resume before trying to get back in. It seems this is indeed the issue, as 505 Games responded to confirm that the devs have been informed.So, if you are running into save issues with Death Stranding and are wary of having to start the game again, the best thing to do until a fix arrives is to close out the game and ensure it isn’t in Quick Resume before starting it up again.Death Stranding Director’s Cut was a surprise launch for Xbox yesterday. “It is my pleasure to finally announce that Death Stranding Director’s Cut will be delivered to Xbox players,” Hideo Kojima said. “I would like to thank all the fans who have stayed connected with us as well as everyone in the Xbox community who have been patiently waiting. Kojima Productions (Death Stranding) will continue to connect more and more players around the world, so please stay tuned.”When this Quick Resume business is sorted, players will be free to enjoy Death Stranding — not entirely stress-free, since it’s not exactly the most calming game, but at least without the worry of losing all Sam’s progress. It’ll be interesting to see how the game fares on Xbox and PC, and whether it’ll end up rated as one of the best Xbox open-world games on offer.
