Days Gone is an open-world action-adventure game developed by Bend Studio and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment. Released in April 2019 for PlayStation 4 and later for PC in May 2021, the game is set in a post-apocalyptic world where players control Deacon St. John, a drifter and bounty hunter navigating a landscape overrun by "Freakers," zombie-like creatures created by a global pandemic. The gameplay focuses on exploration, combat, and survival elements, with players able to use various weapons, craft supplies, and upgrade Deacon’s motorcycle, essential for travelling across the vast and hostile environment. Days Gone combines narrative-driven missions with an open world filled with dynamic events, enemy camps, and environmental challenges.
Deacon St. John, a former outlaw and drifter, searches for purpose in a world ravaged by a pandemic that has turned much of humanity into mindless, violent creatures called Freakers. Driven by the hope that his wife, Sarah, may still be alive, he navigates the dangers of the Pacific Northwest, facing hostile factions, freakish threats, and his own haunting memories. As he fights for survival, Deacon forms new alliances, confronts his past, and seeks answers about his wife’s fate, uncovering harsh truths about resilience and loss in a world on the edge.

I’m gonna go ahead & say it, this game is severely underrated. I couldn’t put this game down. But that being said, at first I couldn’t pick it up.
This is a title that requires patience in its story, characters, & overall gameplay. A slow burn that eventually pays off. Extremely fun & I’ll even go on record to say that it is the best open world zombie game of all time. Also it's one of the best Playstation exclusives. Boom, I said it.
I experienced very few technical issues throughout my play & this is probably due to dev support since launch. I heard it was a mess when it first dropped, but not for me.
All in all, I cherish this game beyond belief & I recommend anyone who hasn’t played it to go ahead & do so. The hordes are an achievement in itself, upgrading your bike is rewarding, & the constant survival day in & day out is gritty & just a downright blast.
P.S. The new version of this app is AWFUL.
Final verdict: Buy It

Something kept pulling me in to play everyday and I still don’t know what it is.
