Days Gone

Days Gone Remastered_02

Critically, Days Gone was a failure with reviewers citing mission design and a slew of technical hiccups as causes for concern. Days Gone’s players were always much kinder though, with a scenic, zombie-ravaged Oregon the perfect playground to funnel colossal hordes of freakers to certain, satisfactory doom. Technical issues have all but been resolved, yet Days Gone’s reputation remains. With a remastered version on the horizon, now’s the perfect time to give Days Gone a chance if you were put off by its critical reception first time round.
