by

Summary

  • Sony officially announces Days Gone Remastered for PS5 with new game modes and enhancements.
  • The game features Horde Assault and Permadeath modes.
  • It costs $9.99 for those that already own the PS4 version of the game.

It’s now confirmed: Days Gone Remastered, which was previously leaked, is making an appearance. The original title, Days Gone, produced by Bend Studio, debuted in 2019 and garnered surprisingly mixed responses for a PlayStation first-party launch. Despite criticism from some quarters, this open-world zombie game has since cultivated a loyal fanbase that eagerly awaits the possibility of a sequel.

Sadly, it appears that Sony has turned down proposals for a sequel to Days Gone so far. On the other hand, Bend Studio was rumored to be developing a new game based on a live-service IP, but this project has been called off. We’ll have to wait and see what happens with the studio next, but in the meantime, fans can anticipate an enhanced edition of Days Gone coming soon to PS5.

During the PlayStation State of Play broadcast, the much-anticipated remaster of the game “Days Gone” was officially revealed. Dubbed “Days Gone Remastered”, this updated version will leverage the PS5’s enhanced capabilities to boost its graphics and performance. Furthermore, these advancements are expected to be even more significant for those playing on the PS5 Pro console. The game will also incorporate proper DualSense support and improved accessibility options. Yet, what might excite “Days Gone” enthusiasts most is the announcement of fresh content that will come with “Days Gone Remastered” upon its launch on April 25th.

Rather than just enhancing the graphics, Days Gone Remastered introduces fresh gameplay options. For instance, Horde Assault is a fast-paced arcade mode where players aim to earn high scores by battling enormous swarms of zombies, which are even larger than those seen in the original Days Gone storyline. This mode will introduce new characters to play, cosmetic items, and additional features. Additionally, enthusiasts can anticipate a Permadeath mode that tracks players’ stats and trophies with a unique graphic upon completion. Moreover, there will be Speedrun and upgraded Photo modes for fans’ enjoyment as well.

If you’re eager to explore the fresh updates in the remastered version of “Days Gone”, remember that it won’t come at no cost. If you’ve previously played “Days Gone” on PS4, you can upgrade to the remaster for just $9.99 – a price similar to other PS4 to PS5 upgrades. The standalone remaster will retail for $49.99. Those who pre-order the game will get eight PSN avatars inspired by “Days Gone” characters, as well as early in-game bonuses. The PC version of “Days Gone” will receive these new features, but they’ll be included in the $10 Broken Road DLC rather than a free update.
