Days Gone Remastered $10 PS5 Upgrade Excludes PS Plus Redemptions

Days Gone Remastered has been a hot topic following its announcement at the recent PlayStation State of Play showcase. The new remaster allows players to upgrade from the PS4 version to the PS5 version for just $10. However, this upgrade is limited to players who own a physical or digital copy of Days Gone. Unfortunately, those who redeemed the game through the PlayStation Plus subscription service will be required to purchase the remaster in full for $49.99. This news has sparked a wave of discontent among PS Plus subscribers, many of whom feel excluded from the opportunity to upgrade affordably, expressing frustration on various forums that Sony’s decision could lead to lost sales and an overall negative customer experience. Some players argue that they would have been willing to pay the upgrade fee, while others have decided to forgo the remastered version altogether.

No, players who have redeemed Days Gone through PlayStation Plus are not eligible for the $10 upgrade to the PS5 remaster and must pay the full price instead.

Days Gone, originally released in 2019, is an open-world action-adventure game developed by Bend Studio. It follows Deacon St. John, a bounty hunter navigating a post-apocalyptic world filled with zombie-like creatures. The game received mixed reviews upon release but garnered a dedicated fanbase, prompting Sony to remaster it for the PS5 to enhance graphics and gameplay.
