Days Gone Remastered Just Got Better
Days Gone Remastered launched on PS5 at the end of April 2025. It brought with it improved performance, visuals, lighting and even new game modes.
However, even with these improvements, Bend Studio has decided to push the boat even further. They have released a new patch for the game that not only adds a completely new ‘balanced’ graphics option for the game, but it also improves loading times, performance and input lag.
Patch 1.025.717 is live for the game now, and you can see the patch notes in full below:
