Earlier
this
year
around
the
same
time
that
a
Horizon
Zero
Dawn
remaster
was
looking
more
and
more
likely,
another

PlayStation
exclusive
was
heavily
rumoured
to
also
get
the
remaster
treatment.
That
game
was

Days
Gone,
the
2019
action-adventure
game
where
you
killed
zombies
and
cruised
around
on
a
motorbike.

Now,
speculation
is
once
again
ramping
up
that
the
Days
Gone
remaster
is
indeed
a
real
thing,
not
that
anyone
seems
to
be
excited
by
the
prospect.
And
really,
who
can
blame
them?
The
game
is
only
half
a
decade
old
and
has
a
solid
PS5
patch
that
lets
it
run
at
60FPS.
However,
that
didn’t
stop
Sony
from
recently
remastering
Horizon
Zero
Dawn,
which
itself
was
also
a
fairly
new
game
that
already
had
a
great
PS5
patch.

ResetEra
user
Dex3108
noted
that
a
lot
of
activity
on
the
Days
Gone
Steam
page
has
been
occurring
recently
which
you
can
see

via
SteamDB.
Looking
at
the
entries,
you
can
see
the
activity
has
actually
been
going
on
much
longer
than
that
though.
In
fact,
whatever
is
going
on
behind
the
scenes
has
been
happening
for
the
last
14
months
or
so.
Before
that,
there’s
a
reasonably
large
gap
where
nothing
was
happening.

It
has
also
been
noted
that
the
game
is
currently
at
a
discounted
price
on
Steam,
with
the
sale
ending
on
December
12,
the
same
date
that
The
Game
Awards
is
due
to
be
aired.
Could
Sony
be
gearing
up
to
announce
the
remaster
at
the
show,
or
even
shadow
drop
it
on
all
us
unsuspecting
fools?

However,
I
feel
the
need
to
drop
some
cold
water
on
the
speculation:
a
glance
at
God
of
War’s
SteamDB
page
shows
constant
activity
there
too.

Likewise,
Ratchet
&
Clank:
Rift
Apart
has
heaps
of
activity
on
its
page
over
the
last
few
days,
weeks
and
months.
Returnal
is
a
little
quieter,
but
still
has
a
reasonable
amount
of
changes.
The
point
is,
I
don’t
see
anything
which
indicates
Days
Gone’s
level
of
activity
is
anything
unusual
when
compared
against
other
Sony
titles.

All
of
that
being
said,
I’m
inclined
to
believe
that
a
Days
Gone
remaster
is
indeed
being
worked
on,
given
how
reliable
the
people
who
previously
discussed
it
are,
and
the
fact
that
Horizon
Zero
Dawn’s
remaster
turned
out
to
be
very
real.
I
just
don’t
think
the
SteamDB
activity
is
compelling
evidence
for
it.

Finally,
I
assume
if
the
remaster
is
real
it
will
be
much
like
the
Horizon
Zero
Dawn
one,
with
potential
customers
being
offered
a
£10
upgrade.
If
true,
I
might
actually
do
it
because

I
actually
enjoyed
the
hell
out
of
the
game,
although
I
absolutely
agree
that
I’d
rather
see
the
resources
used
to
develop
this
and
the
Horizon
remaster
used
elsewhere.
Like
a
Bloodborne
remaster.
Hint,
hint,
Sony.
