Days Gone – Survival Difficulty, Weekly Challenges Coming in June

Reviews for SIE Bend Studio’s Days Gone, a post-apocalyptic open world action title, will be going live tomorrow. However, before PS4 players have a chance to hop into the undead-ridden forests and open roads, the developer has announced some of the free DLC set to come in the months ahead. According to the PlayStation Blog, Survival difficulty and weekly challenges are coming in June.

Survival difficulty is the ultimate test for players. Fast travel and Survival Vision are both disabled. The immersive HUD won’t have any maps or indicators either. You can probably expect enemies to hit harder as well, to boot.

Each week, there will also be a new challenge related to the Horde, Combat, and Deacon’s Bike. The challenges are described as taking features from the game and twisting “them in unique ways to earn additional items and rewards”. You’ll also get new Trophies and skins for the bike by completing Survival Difficulty and the challenges.

Days Gone is out on April 26th for PS4.
