Days Gone Remastered - Launch Trailer | PS5 Games
Tour Pages
4 guides
To unlock the secret ending in Days Gone, you must complete the main story and then finish the three required post-game missions: Where's My Dam Rings, For the Benefit of Others, and I'm Not a Ripper.
After completing these missions, wait for a call while exploring the world or sleeping to pass time. Once the call arrives, a yellow mission marker will appear, leading to There's Nothing You Can Do, the final post-game mission that reveals the game's secret ending.
The main story of Days Gone takes roughly 40 hours to complete. Players who want the Platinum Trophy can expect to spend around 45 to 50 hours, while full completion with collectibles, Hordes, side activities, and optional content can take significantly longer.
If you plan on tackling New Game Plus, Permadeath, Challenges, Horde Assault, and Speedrun Mode, you can easily spend well over 100 hours in the game.

Trophy: One Percenter
Go above and BEYOND, unlocking every trophy in Days Gone
Type: Platinum
Tags: Misc
Unlock Details
Earn every other trophy in Days Gone to unlock this platinum. Nothing here is missable, so you can play at your own pace and clean up anything you missed after finishing the story using the open world. Focus on clearing all storylines, side activities like Ambush Camps and Nero Checkpoints, and make sure to finish off the Horde Killer requirements, which are usually the last stretch for most players. It is a solid and enjoyable platinum that rewards full exploration without anything too punishing, so stick with it and you will get there.
Trophy: Finders Keepers
Unlock your first collectible
Type: Bronze
Category: Collectible
Unlock Details
Unlock your first collectible by picking up any item tied to the game’s collectible categories. This will happen very early in the game without trying, since collectibles are scattered everywhere across the map and some are tied to story progression. Just grab anything you come across and this will unlock almost immediately.
Trophy: Go Kick Rocks
Knock down 12 Anarchist Cairns
Type: Bronze
Category: Collectible
Unlock Details
Knock down 12 Anarchist Cairns by either kicking them with Square or running them over with your bike. These are small rock piles scattered around the world, often tied to Anarchist areas. The easiest place to make progress is during the mission Just Doing My Job, where you can find several Cairns inside a single cave, letting you knock out most of the requirement quickly. There are far more than you need, so just smash any you see and you will finish this without going out of your way.

Trophy: Lend Me Your Ears
Collect 989 Freaker Ears
Type: Bronze
Category: Collectible
Unlock Details
Collect a total of 989 Freaker Ears by killing Freakers and walking over their bodies to pick them up. You will gather these naturally as you play since Freakers are everywhere, especially when clearing nests and fighting hordes. You can even collect ears while riding your bike, which makes cleanup quicker during large fights. It sounds like a big number, but you will easily surpass it just by playing normally, so keep clearing enemies and let this one come to you.

Trophy: The Broken Roadshow
Unlock over 75% of collectibles
Type: Silver
Category: Collectible
Unlock Details
Unlock over 75 percent of all collectibles, which comes out to 181 out of the 240 total in the game. Many collectibles are tied to story progression like Radio Free Oregon broadcasts, Sarah’s Lab Notes, and Colonel Garret speeches, so you will earn a large portion just by playing. Clearing Ambush Camps is especially helpful since they reveal Historical Markers on the map, making cleanup much easier. You do not need everything, just a strong majority, so focus on consistent exploration and you will reach the requirement without needing a full completion grind.
Video Guide: https://www.youtube.com/embed/QzQE_XJhju0
Trophy: Wannabe Fortune Hunter
Unlock over 50% of the collectibles
Type: Bronze
Category: Collectible
Unlock Details
Unlock over 50 percent of the game’s collectibles by exploring the world and picking up items across all categories. You will make steady progress just by clearing Ambush Camps, following story missions, and exploring points of interest. Focus on grabbing collectibles whenever you see them and this will come naturally over time without needing to hunt everything down right away.
Trophy: Best Friends Forever
Receive the Allied Trust status with an Encampment
Type: Silver
Category: Grind
Unlock Details
Reach Allied Trust status with any encampment by completing missions, side activities, and turning in bounties or supplies. Trust increases naturally as you spend more time helping a camp, so just focus on doing jobs and clearing nearby activities. This will likely unlock on your way to maxing out a camp for other trophies, so keep building those relationships and you will get there without going out of your way.
Trophy: Best Friends Forever (For Life)
Gain the Allied Trust status with three different Encampments
Type: Gold
Category: Grind
Unlock Details
Reach Allied Trust status with three different encampments by earning enough trust points through missions, side quests, bounties, and selling items. You will naturally build trust as you progress, especially with camps tied closely to the main story like Iron Mike’s and Wizard Island, but reaching level 3 requires 25,000 trust which takes some extra effort. The most efficient way to finish this is by clearing Hordes, since they reward large amounts of trust depending on the region. Focus on one or two camps at a time, especially Diamond Lake since you will need high trust there for bike upgrades, and you will hit this trophy without it feeling like too much of a grind.
Trophy: Better Living through Chemistry
Upgrade either your Health, Stamina, or Focus for the first time
Type: Bronze
Category: Grind
Unlock Details
Upgrade your Health, Stamina, or Focus for the first time using a NERO Injector. You will get your first injector during the mission He's My Brother, so this trophy is essentially unmissable. Just pick any stat to upgrade and it will unlock right away. It is your first real power boost, and you will definitely feel the difference moving forward.
Video Guide: https://www.youtube.com/embed/zSDzFW4oYe0
Trophy: Farewell Drift
Accumulate 10 minutes of drifting while on your bike
Type: Bronze
Category: Grind
Unlock Details
Accumulate a total of 10 minutes of drifting on your bike. You will naturally make progress just by playing and taking sharp turns using Circle while steering, so this often unlocks without trying. If you still need progress later, the easiest method is to do donuts by holding Circle, R2, and turning left or right in a safe area. A great spot is O'Leary Mountain early in the game where you have fuel nearby and no enemies to worry about. It sounds like a grind, but once you start spinning in circles for a few minutes it racks up faster than you expect.
Video Guide: https://www.youtube.com/embed/Xrh0sCZrH0Y
Trophy: Make it Rain
Spend 20,000 credits at one Encampment
Type: Silver
Category: Grind
Unlock Details
Spend a total of 20,000 credits at a single encampment by purchasing weapons, bike upgrades, and supplies. You will earn credits naturally through story missions, side activities, bounties, and selling items like meat or plants, so this builds up quickly. Bike upgrades tend to cost a lot, making them the fastest way to hit this requirement, especially if you stick to upgrading at one camp instead of spreading your spending around. You will likely unlock this without trying, so keep investing in your gear and it will pop before you know it.
Trophy: Performance Enhanced
Max out either your Health, Stamina, or Focus
Type: Silver
Category: Grind
Unlock Details
Max out either your Health, Stamina, or Focus using NERO Injectors found in NERO Checkpoints and Research Sites. You only need to fully upgrade one stat for this trophy, not all three, so pick the one that fits your playstyle. Stamina is a popular choice if you like mobility, while Focus helps a lot in combat situations. There are more than enough injectors in the game to max everything eventually, so just keep clearing NERO locations and you will reach this without any issues.
Video Guide: https://www.youtube.com/embed/zSDzFW4oYe0
Trophy: Surviving isn't Living
Rescue 10 survivors
Type: Bronze
Category: Grind
Unlock Details
Rescue 10 survivors found throughout the world during random encounters. You will come across these while exploring, usually marked by blue question marks or by spotting someone being attacked, trapped, or held hostage. After saving them, talk to them and choose which camp to send them to for rewards like credits or trust. You will rescue several automatically through the story, so just help people whenever you see them and this will unlock naturally without much effort. It is a nice reminder that not everyone out there is trying to kill you.
Video Guide: https://www.youtube.com/embed/n5_vrzM_5yc
Trophy: Welcome to the Party, Pal
Clear all Ambush Camps, Infestations, and NERO Checkpoints in a single region
Type: Silver
Category: Grind
Unlock Details
Clear all Ambush Camps, Infestations, and NERO Checkpoints within a single region. This will come naturally as you work toward completing those individual storylines, since each one contributes to fully clearing an area. Focus on one region at a time and knock out all activities before moving on, and the trophy will unlock once everything in that zone is completed. It is a nice milestone that shows you are really taking control of the map instead of just passing through it.
Video Guide: https://www.youtube.com/embed/FtzIcPbwT8Y
Trophy: You've Got Red on You
Collect 541 Items from corpses
Type: Bronze
Category: Grind
Unlock Details
Collect 541 items from human corpses by looting them after kills. Most enemies drop multiple items, so you do not actually need 541 separate loots, just keep picking everything up whenever you clear camps or encounters. Make sure your inventory is not full so you do not miss loot, and use up items like bandages or Molotovs to free space if needed. If you somehow still need progress late game, you can reset Ambush Camps and other activities after completing their storylines, which lets you farm human enemies again. It sounds like a grind, but if you loot consistently throughout the game, it finishes much faster than expected.
Trophy: Ghost of Farewell
Get 100 stealth kills
Type: Bronze
Category: Combat
Unlock Details
Perform 100 stealth kills by sneaking up behind enemies and pressing Triangle. The game is very forgiving with stealth, so you do not need to move slowly every time, you can even walk or lightly run up to enemies as long as you are not seen. Ambush Camps and Marauder Camps are great places to farm this since enemies are spread out and easy to pick off one by one. Just keep playing naturally and taking the quiet approach when possible, and this will come sooner than you expect.
Trophy: Old Reliable
Kill 200 Enemies with a Crafted Weapon
Type: Bronze
Category: Combat
Unlock Details
Kill 200 enemies using crafted melee weapons like upgraded bats or 2x4s combined with scrap, nails, or saw blades. You will unlock more crafting recipes by clearing Ambush Camps, so make sure you are doing those as you explore. It also helps to unlock the Field Repairs skill early so you can keep your weapons in good condition using scrap. Newts are great for this since they go down in one hit, making them perfect for quick progress, but any enemy works as long as you stick with crafted weapons. Keep one on you at all times and this will build up steadily without much effort.
Trophy: This is a Knife
Kill a Breaker, Reacher, or Rager with a knife
Type: Silver
Category: Combat
Unlock Details
Kill a Breaker, Reacher, or Rager using only your knife for the final blow. The easiest setup is during the mission Playing All Night where you fight a Breaker with a visible health bar, making it much easier to control the damage. Lower its health with guns first, then carefully finish it with melee knife attacks without overkilling it. These enemies hit hard and can overwhelm you quickly, so keep your distance while weakening them and only move in when you are sure it is safe. It might take a little patience, but landing that final knife hit feels pretty satisfying after the buildup.
Video Guide: https://www.youtube.com/embed/hMSckLEVaRI
Trophy: Variety is the Spice of Life
Kill an enemy with every type of crossbow bolt
Type: Silver
Category: Combat
Unlock Details
Kill at least one enemy with each type of crossbow bolt. You start with the regular bolt and unlock the others as you progress through the story and clear Ambush Camps, so this will come naturally if you keep using the crossbow. Just make sure you actively switch between bolt types and get a kill with each one instead of sticking to your favorite. Residue bolts are great for turning enemies against each other, while explosive and incendiary bolts make quick work of tougher targets. It is a fun excuse to experiment, so mix things up and enjoy watching enemies go down in different ways.

Trophy: Burnout Apocalypse
Use nitro and drift at the same time on your bike for at least 5 seconds
Type: Bronze
Category: Misc
Unlock Details
Use nitro and drift at the same time for at least 5 seconds while riding your bike. You will need the Nitro 3 upgrade from Diamond Lake Camp since lower levels do not last long enough, so focus on building trust by completing missions and side activities in that region. Once you have Nitro 3, head to a flat open area and begin drifting while accelerating, then activate nitro and maintain the motion for the full duration. You need to be moving in a wide circle rather than spinning in place, so it may take a few tries to get the timing right. It feels a bit awkward at first, but once it clicks you will knock it out quickly.
Video Guide: https://www.youtube.com/embed/gnfc2zLnbU0
Trophy: D.I.Y. Oregonian
Craft 50 items
Type: Bronze
Category: Misc
Unlock Details
Craft a total of 50 items using the crafting wheel by holding R1. You will naturally craft items constantly throughout the game such as bandages, Molotovs, and melee upgrades, so this will unlock without effort during normal play. Just keep your supplies stocked and craft regularly instead of hoarding materials, and you will hit this milestone before you even notice.
Trophy: Don't Stop Me Now
Unlock your first skill
Type: Bronze
Category: Misc
Unlock Details
Unlock your first skill by spending a skill point in any of the three skill trees. You will earn your first point very early through normal gameplay, so just pick a skill that fits your playstyle and this will unlock instantly. It is your first real upgrade, and it only gets better from here.
Trophy: Farewell Original
Purchase an upgrade under the Performance, Visual, and Paint Categories for your bike
Type: Silver
Category: Misc
Unlock Details
Purchase at least one upgrade in each bike category which includes Performance, Visual, and Paint. You can do this at any camp mechanic once you have enough trust and credits. Performance upgrades help your bike handle better, visuals change its look, and paint lets you customize the style. This is very easy to unlock early on, so just grab one upgrade from each category and you are done. It is also a nice excuse to make your bike look a little less like it barely survived the apocalypse.
Trophy: First Time Buyer
Upgrade your bike for the first time
Type: Bronze
Category: Misc
Unlock Details
Upgrade your bike for the first time by purchasing any upgrade from a camp mechanic. This will happen naturally early in the game as you start earning credits and trust with camps. Just grab a basic performance or visual upgrade and the trophy will unlock instantly. It is a simple introduction to the bike system, and once you start upgrading, you will quickly realize how much smoother survival becomes.
Trophy: I'm Out of Control
Unlock 15 skills
Type: Bronze
Category: Misc
Unlock Details
Unlock 15 skills by continuing to earn experience and leveling up. You will gain skill points naturally from completing missions, clearing activities, and defeating enemies, so just keep progressing and spending points as they come in. The more you play, the stronger Deacon gets, and this will unlock without any extra effort.
Trophy: Kitchen Courier
Sell Animal Meat or Plants to any Encampment
Type: Bronze
Category: Misc
Unlock Details
Sell any animal meat or plants to a camp kitchen to unlock this trophy. You can gather plants, berries, and mushrooms while exploring, or hunt animals like deer and wolves and harvest their meat. Once you have any of these items, visit a camp and sell them at the kitchen stand. This is extremely easy and can be done very early in the game, so just pick up whatever you see and cash it in for a quick and simple trophy.
Trophy: Mr. Fahrenheit
Unlock 45 skills
Type: Silver
Category: Misc
Unlock Details
Unlock all 45 skills across the Ranged, Melee, and Survival trees by reaching max level and earning enough skill points. You will get most of these through normal gameplay by completing missions and activities, but you will likely need a bit of extra experience at the end. The fastest way to finish this is by hunting down Hordes, especially in the southern regions where they give more XP. It is usually one of the final trophies you unlock, so keep pushing and finish strong.
Video Guide: https://www.youtube.com/embed/mqh8wEmfYe0
Trophy: The Art of Bike Repair
Apply 100 scrap to your bike
Type: Bronze
Category: Misc
Unlock Details
Apply a total of 100 scrap to repair your bike by holding Circle while near it. Your bike will take damage constantly from crashes, enemy attacks, and rough terrain, so this builds up naturally as you play. Scrap is easy to find, especially by checking under the hoods of abandoned cars, so just make it a habit to repair your bike whenever it takes a hit. You will likely unlock this without even thinking about it, especially if your driving gets a little reckless.
Trophy: There's No Stopping Me
Unlock 30 skills
Type: Bronze
Category: Misc
Unlock Details
Unlock 30 skills by leveling up and investing points across the skill trees. By this point you should have a solid build forming, so focus on perks that complement how you like to play. Whether you lean into combat or survival, just keep upgrading consistently and this will come naturally.
Trophy: Ambush Camp Hunter
Complete the story of Days Gone
Type: Silver
Category: Story
Unlock Details
Complete the Ambush Camp Hunter storyline by clearing all 14 Ambush Camps across the map. Each camp requires you to eliminate every enemy, then locate the bunker hatch and inspect the map inside to reveal nearby collectibles. These are worth prioritizing early since they clear map fog, unlock fast travel points, and give you useful crafting recipes. Going in stealth makes this much easier, so a crossbow or a silenced sniper rifle works great for picking enemies off without alerting the whole camp. It is a steady grind, but each camp you clear makes the world a lot easier to manage.
Trophy: Brothers in Arm
Check up on Boozer
Type: Bronze
Category: Story
Unlock Details
This trophy unlocks automatically after completing the mission I Could Use A Hand. Keep following the story and it will unlock without any extra work. Boozer is at the heart of this moment, and it is a good reminder that even in this world, you are not riding alone.
Trophy: Days Done
Complete the story
Type: Gold
Category: Story
Unlock Details
This trophy unlocks automatically after completing the final mission For An Outlaw Biker. Finish the main story and it will pop at the end. Reaching this point feels great after everything the game throws at you, so take a second to appreciate the journey before diving back in for cleanup and the platinum.
Trophy: Hold on Tight
See a familiar face
Type: Bronze
Category: Story
Unlock Details
This trophy unlocks automatically after completing the mission A War We Can Win. Just keep progressing through the main story and it will pop on its own. This is one of those moments that hits if you have been paying attention, so enjoy it because the game does a great job bringing things full circle here.
Trophy: I've Been Waiting for This
Take revenge, once and for all
Type: Bronze
Category: Story
Unlock Details
This trophy unlocks automatically during the final mission For An Outlaw Biker. Simply play through the ending and it will pop along the way. This is the payoff moment the whole game has been leading to, so take your time and enjoy finally settling the score.
Trophy: Infestation Exterminator
Complete the Infestation Exterminator storyline
Type: Silver
Category: Story
Unlock Details
Complete the Infestation Exterminator storyline by clearing all 13 Infestation Zones across the map. Each zone contains 3 or 4 nests hidden in places like buildings, caves, or vehicles, and you will know you are close when Deacon comments on the smell. To destroy a nest, use fire by throwing a Molotov or shooting a fuel canister placed nearby, then be ready because a few Freakers will rush out immediately. Later in the game you will also deal with Crier nests in the southern regions, which are more annoying since they sit on trees and poles while birds swarm you. Incendiary Bolts or a well placed Molotov make these much easier, so come prepared and clear them out efficiently.
Trophy: It's Getting Cold Outside
Reconnect with what you lost
Type: Bronze
Category: Story
Unlock Details
This trophy unlocks automatically after completing the mission We Couldn't Take The Risk. Continue following the story and it will unlock naturally. This part leans more into Deacon’s past, so take it in because it adds some real weight to everything you have been fighting for.
Trophy: Just a Flesh Wound
Get out of Crazy Willie's
Type: Bronze
Category: Story
Unlock Details
This trophy unlocks automatically after completing the mission You Got a Death Wish early in the game. Just follow the main story and you will earn it without any extra effort. It is your first real step into surviving the world of Days Gone, so sit back and enjoy the ride because things only get tougher from here.
Trophy: Lost and Found
Drive south with Boozer
Type: Bronze
Category: Story
Unlock Details
This trophy unlocks automatically after completing the mission No One Saw It Coming. Just continue progressing through the main story and it will trigger naturally. This is where the journey really starts to shift, so take a moment to soak it in before the road ahead gets even rougher.
Trophy: Marauder Camp Hunter
Complete the Marauder Camp Hunter storyline
Type: Silver
Category: Story
Unlock Details
Complete the Marauder Camp Hunter storyline by clearing all 10 Marauder Camps in the game. These camps are similar to Ambush Camps but are usually tied to missions, with the first few introduced through the story and the rest coming from side quests. Each one simply requires you to eliminate all enemies in the area, making them more straightforward overall. You can go in loud or stealth depending on your playstyle, but picking enemies off quietly can save you from getting overwhelmed. It is one of the easier storyline completions, so just keep taking on these jobs as they appear and you will wrap it up naturally.
Trophy: Morior Invictus
Ride out to take back what's yours
Type: Silver
Category: Story
Unlock Details
This trophy unlocks automatically after completing the mission Ascending From The Underworld. Just progress through the story and it will trigger. This is where things really ramp up, so get ready because the game is clearly building toward something big and you are right in the middle of it.
Trophy: One Down
Defeat your first Horde
Type: Silver
Category: Story
Unlock Details
This trophy unlocks automatically after defeating your first Horde during the mission You Alone I Have Seen in the Wizard Lake region. If the fight becomes too difficult, the game will eventually offer an option to skip it and still award the trophy, so you cannot get stuck here. Hordes are one of the toughest challenges in Days Gone, made up of massive groups of Freakers that will overwhelm you fast if you are not prepared. While you can attempt them earlier, it is much easier once you reach higher trust levels at Wizard Lake Camp and unlock stronger weapons like machine guns and better explosives. The key is preparation and control, so stock up on ammo, use attractors to group enemies, and take advantage of environmental explosives while constantly moving. Your first Horde can feel chaotic, but once you understand the flow, it becomes one of the most fun parts of the game.
Video Guide: https://www.youtube.com/embed/cC_fFw2Y3WA
Trophy: Riding NOMAD
Take to the road alone
Type: Bronze
Category: Story
Unlock Details
This trophy unlocks automatically after completing the mission Riding Nomad Again. Just keep moving forward in the story and it will unlock. This is a turning point where things open up in a new way, so make sure your bike is ready because the road ahead is about to change.
Trophy: Special Delivery
Make a delivery to Tucker or Copeland
Type: Bronze
Category: Story
Unlock Details
This trophy unlocks automatically after completing the mission Chasing Leo. Simply progress through the main story and you cannot miss it. This moment helps establish your role between camps, so get used to making runs and keeping your bike in good shape because it will be your lifeline out there.
Trophy: Take Back Your Name
Return the favor
Type: Bronze
Category: Story
Unlock Details
This trophy unlocks automatically after completing the mission Should Have Seen It Coming. Simply progress through the main storyline and it will pop. This part of the story hits a bit harder, so be ready, it is one of those moments that sticks with you.
Trophy: The Ends and the Means
Discover what happened to NERO
Type: Bronze
Category: Story
Unlock Details
This trophy unlocks automatically after completing the mission They’re Not Sleeping. Just keep pushing through the main story and it will pop naturally. This is where things start to get more interesting with NERO, so pay attention because the world of Days Gone is slowly revealing what really happened.
Trophy: World's End
Complete the World's End storyline
Type: Silver
Category: Story
Unlock Details
Complete the World's End storyline by finishing all NERO Checkpoints and NERO Research Sites across the map. NERO Checkpoints require you to restore power by finding a nearby fuel canister and sometimes a fuse, then turning on the generator to access the building inside. Before powering anything up, make sure to destroy or cut all loudspeakers in the area or you will attract a swarm of Freakers instantly. Each checkpoint rewards you with a NERO Injector, a fast travel point, and useful supplies, so they are always worth doing early. NERO Research Sites are quicker and usually just require reaching the location, which can involve climbing, exploring caves, or making bike jumps to grab the injector. Focus on these steadily and you will not only unlock the trophy but also make Deacon much stronger along the way.
The opening hours of Days Gone are all about survival and getting comfortable with the basics. You will be learning how to handle Deacon’s bike, manage fuel, and deal with small groups of Freakers while exploring the northern regions. Take your time here, because the game does not rush you and this is the best moment to understand how everything works before things get more intense.
Start clearing Ambush Camps and Infestation Zones early since they reveal the map, unlock fast travel, and make exploration much easier. Pick up everything you see, craft often, and do not ignore NERO Checkpoints since they give you permanent upgrades that make a big difference. Nothing is missable, so just play naturally and enjoy the ride while building your foundation.
This is where Days Gone really opens up and starts to click. You will have better weapons, more skills, and stronger bike upgrades, which makes combat and exploration feel smoother. Focus on building trust with camps by completing missions, side activities, and turning in bounties, since this unlocks better gear and is key for multiple trophies.
You should also start experimenting with different playstyles, whether that is stealth with the crossbow or going loud with heavier weapons. Keep working on storylines like Ambush Camps, Infestations, and NERO locations, since many trophies tie directly into these. If something feels tough, especially early Horde encounters, you can always come back later stronger or just Ask Gami for a quick strategy.
As you approach the final stretch, the game ramps up and gives you access to some of the best weapons and upgrades. This is a great time to start taking on Hordes more seriously, especially once you have strong gear and plenty of resources. Preparation is everything here, so stock up, plan your approach, and do not be afraid to retreat and try again.
Make sure you are continuing to build trust with camps and finishing up major storylines as they wrap up. By the time you reach the end, you should be close to completing most requirements for the platinum without needing to grind too much. Stay focused, keep upgrading, and enjoy the momentum because you are almost there.
After finishing the story, the entire map remains open, so this is where you clean up anything you missed. You can finish remaining Hordes, collectibles, camp activities, and skill progression without pressure. Many trophies naturally wrap up here, especially ones tied to kills, crafting, and exploration.
If you are missing anything, focus on one goal at a time and chip away at it instead of trying to do everything at once. The game even lets you reset certain activities, so nothing is locked out. Keep it relaxed, explore freely, and if anything gives you trouble, just Ask Gami and get right back to it. You are well within reach of the platinum, so finish strong.

Days Gone Remastered - Launch Trailer | PS5 Games
Tour Pages
4 guides
To unlock the secret ending in Days Gone, you must complete the main story and then finish the three required post-game missions: Where's My Dam Rings, For the Benefit of Others, and I'm Not a Ripper.
After completing these missions, wait for a call while exploring the world or sleeping to pass time. Once the call arrives, a yellow mission marker will appear, leading to There's Nothing You Can Do, the final post-game mission that reveals the game's secret ending.
The main story of Days Gone takes roughly 40 hours to complete. Players who want the Platinum Trophy can expect to spend around 45 to 50 hours, while full completion with collectibles, Hordes, side activities, and optional content can take significantly longer.
If you plan on tackling New Game Plus, Permadeath, Challenges, Horde Assault, and Speedrun Mode, you can easily spend well over 100 hours in the game.
