Days Gone is a post-apocalyptic, open-world action game that overcame a rocky 2019 console launch to be lauded as a "cult classic" following a highly polished 2021 PC port. Praised for its intense horde-combat mechanics, deep motorcycle management, and a 40-hour narrative, the title is considered a "slow burn" that rewards investment, particularly with its technical improvements on PC.
