Days Gone is an action survival game set in post-apocalyptic North America, ravaged by a mysterious virus. It was developed by Bend Studio, whose previous work includes Uncharted: Golden Abyss on PlayStation Vita, which was released in 2012. Days Gone is the team's first project developed for the PlayStation 4. Two years after the console release, the game was also released on PC.

Plot

The action of Days Gone takes place two years after the outbreak of a global pandemic virus that turned millions of people into mindless creatures, called by the survivors "marmots". The main character is a former member of a motorcycle gang, and now a bounty hunter, Deacon St. John. The man is trying to cope with the loss of the love of his life and the complete disintegration of the world he knew. The theme is survival, not finding a cure for an illness and saving the world. In presenting its story, the game often returns to the past - the time before the virus that decimated humanity. There is also the story of NERO (National Emergency Response Organization), which tried to cope with the pandemic - unfortunately without success.
