Days Gone Adds Bike-Themed Challenge With Newest Update

Days Gone continues to get updated with new content following its release. SIE Bend Studio have been adding challenges to the game for some time now, and they’ve added another one with the latest patch. And this one is all about your best friend in the post-outbreak apocalypse- the Drifter bike.

The challenge – called Drifter’s Run – sees you driving your bike through the volcanic area of Crater Lake. You’re tasked with gathering all the bandages in the area while avoiding Freakers, an entire horde, and fire hazards in the environment, such as burning buildings. You can also use ramps to make jumps and score extra points.

A few other fixes are also brought about with the new patch. A progression issue related to the quest “It’s A Rifle, Not a Gun” has been fixed, while issues related to Survival Vision and outlines of enemies while it is activated have also been fixed. Other fixes include showing the correct number of crafted bolts in the menu, nests repopulating properly if you die after burning them, and more. Take a look at the full patch notes below.

Days Gone is current available exclusively on the PS4.
