Despite the success of the game in terms of sales, Sony remains disappointed with the game.
Jeff Ross, director of Days Gone and a former employee of Bend Studio, took to Twitter. After his retirement from Sony in 2020, Days Gone sold 8 million copies on the PlayStation console and more than 1 million on PC, bringing the total to Days Gone selling more than 9. million official sets
However, despite Days Gone’s sales success, Ross said the local studio manager was still trying to “make us feel like it was a big disappointment” about Days Gone.
At the time I left Sony, Days Gone had been out for a year and a half (and a month), and sold over 8 million copies. It’s since gone on to sell more, and then a million+ on Steam. Local studio management always made us feel like it was a big disappointment. #daysgone #PlayStation https://t.co/KMZr2pGe9r

Days Gone is PlayStation’s open-world action zombie survival game originally released in 2019, which scores mixed media reviews with likes and dislikes. The advantage of this game is that it can present scary zombies. Unpredictable behavior, nice graphics. and a fun battle system But there are downsides: too repetitive mission design, performance issues (now fixed), and relatively mediocre storytelling. Compared to other zombie games
Ross insists that despite Sony being disappointed in Days Gone, for him and his team It was one of the projects he was most proud of. Because it’s an open-world game made by a small team. Therefore, the completion of the game development is considered a pleasure.
Earlier, Bend Studio and Sony confirmed that they have no plans to develop a new Days Gone game and are focusing on creating a new IP game that may be released in the future.
