Days Gone Remastered received a new update on October 20, 2025, bringing it up to version 1.036.180. This update adds a new feature Days Gone Remasteredone it now shares with a handful of other PlayStation-published titles.
Originally released in April 2019, Days away met with a mixed reception at launch. While some reviewers praised the impressive scale of the Days aways Freaker horde, most criticized its lackluster open world, overly long story, and repetitive gameplay. But despite the critical reception, Days gone has managed to garner quite a cult following over the past six years, one high enough to warrant a remaster of the game in April 2025, which added shiny graphics, a new permadeath mode, wave mode and speedrun mode.
Days Gone Remastered releases 1,036,180 patch
As of October 2025's 1,036,180 patch, PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 5 Pro owners can now play Days Gone Remastered in power saving mode. Added to the consoles as part of a September 2025 firmware update, Power Saver mode reduces the amount of power the console consumes at the cost of lower performance during gaming. Days Gone Remastered is the second PlayStation-published title to receive a Power Saving Mode update, with two more confirmed to receive one soon. The current list of energy scores includes:
- Demon's Souls
- Days Gone Remastered
- Ghost of Yotei (Not yet received update)
- Death Stranding 2: On the Beach (Not yet received update)
To enable Power Saver mode, players must go into the console settings of their PS5 or PS5 Pro and head over to “System”. Once there, scroll down to the “Power saving” tab and activate the function. A list of compatible games installed on the console will then appear, prompting players to turn on the mode for each title.
Of course, turning on power saving mode takes a toll on the gaming experience. According to ResetEra users sharing their first-hand experience with Power Saver mode, Demon's Souls runs at 30FPS, and its graphical fidelity takes a noticeable hit. This will likely be the case for all games compatible with PlayStation's Power Saver mode, including Days Gone Remastered.
While no other games have been confirmed by name, Sony has said that more titles will receive a Power Saver update in the future. What's more, some believe that this power saving mode is actually a tease for the next PlayStation handheld console. Recent rumors from leaker Kepler suggest that PlayStation's next-gen hardware could feature a handheld device that uses similar Power Saver technology to make games run natively on the device at a lower frame rate and fidelity. Of course, these are just rumors at the moment.
