Returning to play Deacon St. John and exploring the dangerous lands of Farewell felt like a trip back in time to 2019. The experience was more rewarding than expected thanks to its new features, extending the hours of enjoyment beyond the game's main plot even further. Days Gone Remastered delivers on absolutely every front, proving itself to be a more than adequate remake, not only for existing players but also for new ones who decide to delve into it.

Days Gone is revving up again with a remaster that, while unnecessary and hard to justify, has reminded us why we loved the original game so much. If you weren't familiar with it and own a PS5, this is the perfect opportunity to discover this world of bikes and monsters.

So, to invest money in this remaster just seems like giving some false hope to fans that are interested in seeing more from Deacon and gang but who am I, just a black guy reviewing games. I am sure Sony knows what they are doing……right?

Keeping the original structure intact, Days Gone returns to PlayStation 5 in a version that - thanks also to an appealing price tag - stands out as a purchase well worth considering for open-world enthusiasts. Visually polished, lengthy without becoming tiresome, and quite entertaining, it also features a range of new game modes alongside the main adventure that add variety. The epic tale of Deacon St. John still fully deserves high praise today.

For those who have already sampled the grim delights of Days Gone on PS4, paying £10 for the definitive version of one of 2019's most underrated open world adventures that brings with it a hugely entertaining and worthwhile horde mode, seems like a bargain to me. As for the rest of the package, it really did surprise me just how well Bend Studio's most marquee effort has endured, offering up a smart take on both open world game design and the zombie apocalypse more broadly that other developers have struggled to match. Put simply, if you haven't played Days Gone before, this is the point where you leap in with both feet.

For the love of the game, Bend Studio has proudly brought back Days Gone with a PS5 version that truly shines on Sony's current-gen system - and even brighter on PS5 Pro. It's shrugged off the original PS4 launch to prove the title has always been great, and now with Horde Assault, it delivers a comprehensive package coursing with quality. If the original game released like this, perhaps we really would have a sequel by now.

If you've never tried the original, I think this version could be a perfect choice, as it's an entertaining game from Bend Studio, and you'd be contributing to a possible sequel. Likewise, if you tried it years ago, you might be convinced by the number of additions they've added.

Days Gone Remastered is clearly the best version of the game to date. If you were disappointed by its technical issues on PS4, it would be time to give it a second chance. This massive update significantly improves the graphics with better lighting effects, a better resolution and a solid framerate and adds the fun new mode: Horde Assault. PS5 Pro players will benefit from the power of the console and will have an even better experience.

Those who have always wanted to get closer to Days Gone and have not managed to do so until now, could seriously consider the offer of the remastered edition: it still offers the most valid and complete way to experience a great adventure of the PS4 era, set in an Oregon as rich in charm as it is lethal.

Days Gone Remastered, from developer Bend Studio and publisher Sony Interactive Entertainment, brings a more defined and pointed experience, as well as a bigger world and a more refined amount of gameplay. While the story feels disconnected from said gameplay, which does hurt the game, the overall gameplay experience is pretty solid.

Days Gone Remastered feels like a complete game that irons out many of the aesthetic kinks, while adding more meat in the process. Nobody should feel dissatisfied with the remastering job done here, especially seeing as you now get more for your money.

Days Gone Remastered , while being a clear improvement from a technical point of view, is also a bit melancholic , a sort of final act for a project that could have expanded further , but was left incomplete.

With new fun and challenging modes, Days Gone Remastered brings technical and aesthetic refinements that, although subtle, adapt Deacon's journey to the current generation, thus giving it an opportunity to reach its full latent potential. Without reinventing the Drifter's two wheels and adding quality of life to the game with new options, it is certainly the opportunity to rediscover (or discover for the first time) this beautiful work underestimated by time.

Days Gone Remastered fits great on PS5 with renewed visuals and a very interesting Horde Assault mode. A perfect excuse to come back, or to experience it for the first time.

The graphics are marginally improved, but the new Horde Assault mode breathes new life into an open world that, despite some repetitiveness, maintains its post-apocalyptic charm intact.

Updates are always welcome, but the latest release of Days Gone Remastered for PlayStation 5 feels more like a repackaging of the game than a new experience worthy of our attention.
