What’s the Hype About? Days Gone on PS4 was already a wild ride. But the remastered version? It’s on a whole new level. Built specifically for the PS5, this version flexes enhanced graphics, beefed-up lighting, and faster frame rates that make slicing through Freakers feel buttery smooth.

You also get to choose your vibe with two modes:

• Performance Mode – silky smooth FPS
• Quality Mode – crisp visuals for the photo mode addicts

And speaking of vibes — DualSense support is fully here. You’ll literally feel Deacon’s bike rumble beneath you, the snap of a crossbow, and even the soft patter of rain. Immersion = maxed out.
New Game Modes to Keep You SweatingThis isn’t just a prettier version of the same old ride. Days Gone Remastered is dropping brand new game modes that are equal parts wild and masochistic:

• Horde Assault Mode: Think you’ve mastered the horde? Try surviving waves of Freakers and other enemies in this new arcade survival mode. Bigger hordes. More chaos. Endless bragging rights.
• Permadeath Mode: One life. One shot. No do-overs. Can you finish the story without dying once? This one’s for the real masochists out there—and yes, there’s a special Trophy waiting for you if you pull it off.
• Speedrun Mode: Blast through the story as fast as possible and flex your best time online. Nitrous engaged.
• Upgraded Photo Mode: For all you virtual photographers—better lighting, more filters, time-of-day controls, and logo overlays. Freakers have never looked this cinematic.

Enjoy the quieter moments of the Farewell Wilderness, for now. 🌲
