Game trailer
Deacon St. John returns
Released on 25 April 2025 on PS5 according to the French PlayStation Store, Days Gone Remastered follows Deacon St. John, a former outlaw biker surviving in a pandemic-ravaged Oregon overrun by Freaker hordes. This version improves the visuals and adds DualSense support, Quality and Performance modes, and a new Horde Assault mode.
What the press says
On PS5, Push Square (8/10) calls it the best version of Days Gone yet, with stunning visuals, solid frame rates and a fun Horde Assault mode, though the opening hours are still a chore. PlayStation Universe (8.5/10) finds the game has endured remarkably well, praises a hugely entertaining horde mode and calls the £10 upgrade for PS4 owners a bargain.
