Set in post-apocalyptic Oregon, protagonist Deacon St. John ekes out a desperate existence as a freelance bounty hunter, following a pandemic outbreak that transforms those infected into murderous hordes, dubbed by survivors as "Freakers."
The open-world action-adventure game's Broken Road expansion is now available for Windows via Steam. New content includes the Premadeath, Speedrun and Horde Assault modes. The latter survival arcade mode challenges players' skills in surviving as long as possible when pitted against hordes of opponents within assorted in-game locales.
Record label Mondo published Days Gone vinyl soundtrack, pressed on two analog records and decorated with original artwork by Oliver Barrett. The game score, composed by Nathan Whitehead, also features songs by Jack Savoretti, Billy Raffoul, Lewis Capaldi and Zander Reese. The digital soundtrack is streaming on YouTube Music, Spotify, and Amazon Music Unlimited.
From the Mondo product description:
Nathan Whitehead’s beautiful, meditative yet occasionally terrifying score to DAYS GONE is one of our favorite pieces of video game music of 2019. A tragic slice of Americana, thrilling adventure, mixed with traditional horror elements. It is equal parts pulse pounding, heartbreaking and horrifying at the same time.Laced Records - Layering stealth and combat: Nathan Whitehead on composing the Days Gone score
