John Garvin, the Creative Director of Bend Studios, gets into deal to prepare us for the extremely dangerous creatures players will face. According to him, the zombies in this world are called Freakers, mindless and feral beasts that are hungry for human survivors. There are two kinds of Freakers: the Newts and the Hordes. Once again explained by Garvin, Newts are the hunter types that hunt from the shadows, while Hordes are Freakers that hunt in enormous packs. On the up side, players are given a tough protagonist that they will control.
The main protagonist is named Deacon St. John, a drifter, bounty hunter, and bad ass biker. Not much is known about his backstory, but this is the guy who will help players survive in the upcoming zombie apocalypse. This is everything that has been revealed about Days Gone, so far. Playstation players, get ready.
