Begin deze maand kondigde Bend Studio aan dat Days Gone een New Game+ modus zou krijgen. Inmiddels heeft de ontwikkelaar een nieuwe update voor de game uitgebracht, die onder andere deze modus toevoegt.

Update 1.50 brengt verder nog meer nieuwe content met zich mee. Zo is ook de laatste gratis DLC uitdaging beschikbaar gesteld. Deze challenge heet ‘Black Friday’ en hierin krijgen spelers te maken met een oneindige horde Freakers, waarvan ze er binnen een bepaalde tijd zo veel mogelijk moeten uitschakelen.

Hieronder vind je de changelog van update 1.50 voor Days Gone. De patch weegt ongeveer 13GB.

Weekly DLC Challenges

  • “Black Friday” is our FINAL free DLC challenge! Head back to Lumber Mill and take on a never-ending Horde with a time limit. Use Freaker ears to purchase weapons, equipment, skills, and more!
    • Try your chance at the surprise box for a random chance to get anything from a SAF to our new gun, the Growler.
    • Plan your routes so you can go back and collect ears from horde you killed, don’t leave yourself with no ears or ammo
    • Be patient, you can’t keep a combo going if you are dead.

A reminder that all the challenges we release are planned to stay unlocked indefinitely.
