Still unfamiliar with Days Gone? Here’s what’s in store when the game releases next month:

• Hope Never Dies – At its core, Days Gone is about survivors and what makes them human: desperation, loss, madness, betrayal, friendship, brotherhood, regret, love—and hope. It’s about how, even when confronted with such enormous tragedy, hope never dies.
• Deacon St. John – Play as Deacon St. John, a bounty hunter facing a brutal struggle for survival while searching for a reason to live.
• Threats – In addition to hostile drifters, marauders, and militia, Deacon must face a wilderness overrun by dangerous and evolving Freakers. As with any living creature, Freakers eat, drink, hibernate and build nests, behaviors that Deacon must learn and adapt to.
• A Harsh Open World – Using the power of PlayStation®4 and Unreal Engine 4, Days Gone offers an incredibly realistic and detailed open-world experience. Immerse yourself in vast and hostile environments, and explore their secrets. Search abandoned vehicles, houses, truck stops and towns as you scavenge for resources. But be careful— day and night cycles, along with dynamic weather systems, all affect gameplay and enemy behavior.

Days Gone officially launches exclusively for the PlayStation 4 on April 26, 2019.
