Days Gone Free Update: Zombie game enthusiasts are set for a blast, as Bend Studio's open-world survival game Days Gone has just been issued with a new update that's now live as a free download for PC and PS5 players.
For those who don't know, Days Gone originally came out in 2019 and is set in post-apocalyptic Oregon two years following a fatal zombie apocalypse. The game tracks Deacon St. John, a drifter ex-outlaw, as he goes on a quest to discover his wife—long thought dead—is very much alive, amidst resisting waves of freakers (zombies) and aggressive humans. Although the game received split reviews when it released, it has come to develop a die-hard fan base owing to its engrossing world, suspenseful gameplay, and tear-jerking story.
Now, Days Gone is in the limelight once again with a fresh patch that seeks to improve the experience for fresh players as well as returnees. The patch has been released for the PC version as well as the Days Gone Remastered version on PlayStation 5 and PS5 Pro. As per the official patch notes posted by Bend Studio, the patch features:
- Different crash fixes
- Streaming performance improvements
- Updated in-game translations
The patch also includes Days Gone: Broken Road DLC, which promises better performance overall. Although no new content or game-altering features are included with this update, it should make the exploration of the open-world wasteland smoother and more pleasant.
Bend Studio has publicly hinted at making Days Gone 2, but as of yet, Sony hasn't approved a sequel. Even with the franchise's uncertain future, this latest update indicates that the studio is still dedicated to keeping the first game alive.
