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.

Yakuza: Dead Souls thrusts players into a chaotic zombie apocalypse set in the bustling district of Kamurocho. As four distinct characters—Kiryu, Majima, Akiyama, and Goda—you must battle the undead, rescue civilians, and uncover the source of the infection in a non‑canonical side story set after Yakuza 4. The game blends the series' signature open‑world adventure with shooter mechanics, offering a gritty survival‑horror experience on PlayStation 3. Each protagonist brings unique abilities and storylines, creating varied gameplay across four interconnected chapters.
