The huge file size brings fixes for framerate drops and crashing issues, as well as other unspecified stability updates for performance issues the game previously had. While it is a bit odd to seeDays Goneupdated this late into its life cycle, stability improvements are welcome regardless of when they come. The new update makes no mention oftheDays GoneGhost Rider bug, so Marvel fans can likely still turn Deacon St. John into the cursed character on next-gen consoles as well.
It is worth noting thatDays Goneis not the only older game to suddenly get a patch ahead of the PS Plus Collection’s arrival.The Last of Us Remasteredwas updated recentlyto practically remove loading screens, a change that has had a major impact on speedrunners. WhileDays Gone’s update does not seem to be making the same massive changes, it still seems likely to improve the game’s performance quite a bit.
Sony seems to be doing all it can to makeDays Goneand its other PS Plus Collection games as smooth as possible, likely pushing its first party developers to update their games regardless of age. As such, the PS5 version ofDays Goneshould be a better version of the decently-reviewed game, though it seems like PS4 players will benefit as well. With thePS Plus Collection adding two more gamesrecently,Days Goneis surrounded by plenty of popular titles.
For players who want to experience the changes made to the game right away,Days Gonehas been added to PlayStation Nowas well. For those waiting on the PS5’s release, they will not need to wait much longer, as the console and its collection of PS Plus games arrive in just a few weeks.
