All work and no Days Gone makes Miles a sad boy.
Sadly, it seems motorcycle club Zombie survival game Days Gone has had its release pushed back to April 2019. According to the PlayStation Blog post written by Asad Qizilbash, Sonye felt the need to push the title’s release back for that extra bit of high polish, in addition to freeing it from a crowded February release window:
We want to share a change in release date for this highly anticipated title from Bend Studio. We recently decided to move the release of Days Gone from the crowded February timeframe to April 26, 2019. While the studio is eager to see Days Gone in the hands of fans, Bend Studio will take the opportunity to further polish Days Gone.
As PlayStation fans already know, Days Gone is an open-world action game set in the high-desert of the Pacific Northwest. Traversing harsh landscapes on their drifter bike, players must fight for resources as they attempt to survive broken roads, unpredictable weather, attacks from other human factions, infected wildlife and roaming Freakers — a brutal, dynamic world that is dangerous both day and night.
This isn’t the first time the game’s release date has been pushed back. Days Gone was originally meant to release some time in 2018, but got pushed back to 2019 for unspecified reasons in March. And now, our own Miles Hamilton will have to wait another two months to get his hands on the game. Poor guy, I know the feel.
