Learn about Cryptobiotes and Monster Energy Drink for stamina restoration in Death Stranding Director's Cut. Find out how they work.

Cryptobiotes: A tardigrade snack that restores Sam's blood levels. The exact amount of blood one cryptobiote restores is not yet clear.

Monster Energy Drink: This drink restores Sam's stamina at a much faster rate than resting. You receive a full liter, which may not be enough if you are rapidly depleting stamina. Wading through a river will refill the canteen quickly, while Timefall will refill it more slowly. Resting will top it right up.

Tips
  • Use Monster Energy Drink for a rapid stamina boost when needed.
  • Keep an eye on your blood levels and use Cryptobiotes when necessary.
