Bend Studio and Sony have rolled out a significant update for Days Gone Remastered, bringing enhanced visuals and accessibility features to both PlayStation 5 and PC players. The update addresses performance issues, refines gameplay mechanics, and introduces quality-of-life improvements, ensuring a smoother post-apocalyptic experience.

Originally launched in 2019 for PS4, Days Gone immerses players in a brutal Oregon wilderness overrun by Freakers—zombie-like creatures—two years after a global pandemic. The 2021 PC port and 2025 PS5 remaster introduced upgraded graphics, including ray tracing and higher frame rates, alongside accessibility options like customizable subtitle colors and High Contrast Mode.

Key Updates Across Platforms

• PC (Patch 1.10): Fixes audio imbalances, improves horde navigation in the Horde Assault DLC, and reduces bike resistance. Gyro aiming and adaptive trigger sliders now function correctly.
• PS5 (Patch 1.025.809): Optimizes Balanced Mode for PS5 Pro, enhances PSSR upscaling, and resolves crashes. UI tweaks and Freaker spawn adjustments are also included.

Why It Matters

Despite canceling a live-service project earlier this year, Bend Studio remains committed to refining Days Gone. These updates demonstrate their dedication to the franchise, keeping fans engaged while speculation about future projects continues.
