Days Gone is an action-adventure game played from the third-person view. You play as Deacon St. John, a Drifter and former bounty hunter who prefers to live a dangerous life on the road over living in wilderness encampments.
The game takes place two years after a global pandemic occurred which killed almost all of humanity, but transformed millions of others into "Freakers", mindless zombie-like creatures that are quickly evolving.
In the E3 2016 stage demo of the game, two types of "Freakers" were revealed, Newts and Hordes. As the game is set in an open world, players are allowed to use multiple ways to complete objectives, such as utilizing stealth and taking the aggressive approach. Players can also craft new items to improve combat efficiency.
