"Days Gone Remastered: New Feature Allows Game Speed Adjustment"

Days Gone Remastered is set to launch soon, and Sony's Bend Studio has shared exciting details about the new accessibility features that will be part of this updated version. One of the standout features is the ability to adjust the Game Speed, allowing players to slow down the action during intense moments. This feature can be set to 100%, 75%, 50%, or even 25% of normal speed, catering to those who might find high-pressure situations challenging.

In a recent PlayStation Blog post, Kevin McAllister, the Creative & Product Lead at Bend Studio, outlined the various accessibility options coming to Days Gone Remastered. He emphasized that the Game Speed adjustment is designed to help players who might feel overwhelmed, especially when facing hordes of Freakers. With the introduction of the new Horde Assault mode in the remaster, this feature ensures that the unique combat experience remains accessible to a broader audience.

Beyond Game Speed, Days Gone Remastered will offer a range of other accessibility enhancements. Players can look forward to customizable subtitle colors, a High Contrast Mode that can be tailored to individual preferences, UI Narration for better in-game guidance, and Collectible Audio Cues to assist in locating in-game items. Additionally, the auto-complete QTE feature, previously limited to the Easy difficulty, will now be available across all difficulty levels, from Easy to Survival II.

Bend Studio has also confirmed that most of these new accessibility features will be rolled out to the PC version of Days Gone. However, some features like feedback and control customization will require a compatible controller.

Announced in February, Days Gone Remastered promises more than just improved accessibility. It will include an enhanced photo mode, permadeath, and speedrun options, adding to the excitement for fans of the 2019 post-apocalyptic zombie action-adventure game.

Mark your calendars: Days Gone Remastered will be available starting April 25, 2025. For those who already own the PS4 version, an upgrade to the PS5 remastered edition will be available for just $10.
