A significant new patch for Days Gone Remastered is now available, addressing issues that players encountered on the PlayStation 5 Pro. Released just last month, the remastered edition has been met with mixed responses, particularly regarding its performance on Sony’s latest console. Fortunately, developer Sony Bend has stepped in to rectify these concerns, enhancing the experience for fans of the franchise.

What’s New in the Patch?

The latest update, labeled Patch 1.025.809, brings a variety of improvements that focus on graphics, performance, audio, and controller feedback. Below are the key changes that players can expect:

Graphics Enhancements

• Adjusted the Balanced graphical setting on the PS5 and PS5 Pro to ensure a smoother performance.

Performance Fixes

In addition to graphical enhancements, Sony Bend has listened to player feedback and made various performance-related adjustments:

• Audio Adjustments: Players will notice a refined audio experience, with better volume levels for Freakers when they’re close by, enhancing the immersion while playing.

Controller Feedback Improvements

To address concerns regarding haptic feedback, significant adjustments were made:

• Adaptive Trigger intensity sliders are now functioning correctly, allowing players to customize their experience.
• The feedback resistance while riding the bike has been reduced significantly, cutting the intensity in half for a more comfortable traversal across the devastated landscape of the game.

• Fixes for repeating narration issues when using the UI Narration accessibility setting.
