Evaluation

Days Gone originally launched on PC on May 17, 2021. On April 25, 2025, Bend Studio released the Broken Road DLC — a paid $10 content pack adding Horde Assault (a new survival arcade mode), Permadeath mode, Speedrun mode, and Enhanced Photo Mode. Alongside the DLC, all base game owners received a significant free update (Patch 1.08) with graphical improvements, DualSense haptic feedback support, and accessibility features. Following the DLC launch, the studio issued a series of patches addressing bugs, audio issues, and stability problems through mid-2025 — the most recent being Patch 1.13 on July 21, 2025. On October 15, 2025, the studio released a final quality-of-life addition: a Beta branch option allowing players to switch between the classic 2021 version (Patch 1.07) and the updated 2025 version (Patch 1.08). This post explicitly frames the two versions as the complete options available and notes there will be no official support for branch swapping — signaling that this is the settled state of the product. The DLC list shows one item (Broken Road DLC), which is fully released. No unreleased DLC is listed on the store, and there are no developer announcements of further content. The store description describes the game as a complete package including all modes. The cadence of post-DLC communication has been maintenance-only (bug fixes, stability patches), with no announcements of new features or content. The October 15, 2025 Beta branch post is the most recent developer communication, and it reads as a final housekeeping update rather than a precursor to new content. No future content has been announced or hinted at since the DLC shipped.

About this game

Days Gone is an open-world action-adventure game set in a harsh wilderness two years after a devastating global pandemic.

Step into the dirt flecked shoes of former outlaw biker Deacon St. John, a bounty hunter trying to find a reason to live in a land surrounded by death. Scavenge through abandoned settlements for equipment to craft valuable items and weapons, or take your chances with other survivors trying to eke out a living through fair trade… or more violent means.

KEY FEATURES

• A striking setting: From forests and meadows, to snowy plains and desert lava fields, the Pacific Northwest is both beautiful and lethal. Explore a variety of mountains, caves, mines and small rural towns, scarred by millions of years of volcanic activity.

• Brutal encounters: With vicious gangs and hordes of Freakers roaming the land, you’ll need to make full use of a variety of customizable traps, weapons, and upgradable skills to stay alive. Don’t forget your Drifter bike, an invaluable tool in a vast land.

• An ever-changing environment: Jump on the saddle of Deacon’s trusty motorbike and explore a dynamic world dramatically affected by the weather, a dramatic day/night cycle and the evolving Freakers, who adjust to their surroundings – and the people in it.

• A compelling story: Lose yourself in a powerful tale of desperation, betrayal and regret, as Deacon St. John searches for hope after suffering a deep, personal loss. What makes us human when faced with the daily struggle for survival?
