Ī global pandemic occurred which decimated the globe, turning millions of humans into feral cannibalistic creatures, called Freakers. The game was nonetheless a commercial success, having the largest physical sales launch in the United Kingdom for 2019. A major game mechanic is Deacon's drifter bike, which is used as the player's primary mode of transportation as well as mobile inventory.ĭays Gone was released to a generally mixed critical response critics praised several aspects of the open world and game mechanics as promising foundations, but had polarized thoughts on the game's narrative, pacing and mission design, while the character of Deacon was deemed as bland and underdeveloped.

#THE DAY BEFORE PS4 RELEASE DATE WINDOWS#
It was released exclusively for the PlayStation 4 on April 26, 2019, before later being released on Microsoft Windows (PC) on May 18, 2021. At least for their current release date of Q2 2021.Days Gone is an action-adventure survival horror video game developed by SIE Bend Studio and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment. Obviously, this hasn't gone to plan for whatever reason. We also need to keep in mind that a statement was made in an interview with Fntastic co-founders Ed Gotovtsev and Aisen Gotovtsev in which that said that a "pre-launch beta, but only for thousands of lucky ones" would happen.

There's no doubt about it that the title looks fantastic, but the fact that we've had radio silence since then is certainly worrying. The most recent trailer for The Day Before was all the way back in April where we got to see a glimpse of the vehicles used to travel around the game's stunning locations as well as a short in-game presentation of the houses and stores you can explore on your journey. Another trailer showcasing more of the game's world, different types of infected, weapons and maybe even a little context around the title's characters would be needed at this stage well before a game's launch date. There's also the matter of maintaining some level of hype around the game's eager fanbase. So, what are some of the reasons, in my opinion, for thinking that The Day Before might not arrive when it said it would? Firstly, we have the impending Q2 of 2021 coming to an end in a week so it's highly unlikely that Fntastic will ship the game in that short time period.
