Overview
Description

Days Gone is an action-adventure survival horror game set in a post-apocalyptic Oregon. Players control Deacon St. John, a bounty hunter fighting to survive against hordes of Freakers, the zombie-like creatures that have devastated the world. The game features a vast open world to explore, a variety of missions and side quests, and a dynamic weather system and day-night cycle that affects gameplay.

Wheelman drops you into a sprawling, destructible urban playground modeled after Barcelona, where every alley and office block hides shortcuts and chaos. With 31 story missions and 105 side missions, the game blends high‑speed driving with intense third‑person foot combat. Choose from a wide arsenal of pistols, RPGs, and more as you tackle driving‑focused challenges and on‑foot objectives, all within a vibrant, open‑world environment that rewards exploration and aggressive play.
