InDays Gone Remastered, time will go by as players go about their day and complete missions and side quests. While they may leave their base or an encampment during the early hours to go hunting, before they know it, the sun will go down, and certain locations become more dangerous. According to Lieutenant Booth, Freakers tend to hibernate up until around 7 PM, and then they come out to eat in the nighttime.
This guide tells players about the day and night cycle inDays Gone Remastered, as there are some key differences between day and night; if players are aware of what changes as the hours go by, they can better prepare themselves and plan their days accordingly.
Differences Between Day and Night in Days Gone Remastered
InDays Gone Remastered, it is much more dangerous to come out at night, as more Freakers will be roaming around. However, there are a few tasks that are definitely worth doing in the late hours of the day.
Freakers tend to hibernate during the day, which makes it more dangerous to clear infestation zones during the day. Since Freakers are in their nests while the sun is out, if players decide to destroy them during this time, more will jump out as the nest burns. When players destroy a nest at night, they will only encounter a couple of Freakers inside, but they will be stronger.In this case, it’s up to players to decide if they prefer to take their chances with fewer, but stronger Freaks.
Hordes are more objective when it comes to confronting them. Similarly to Freakers in nests, those in hordes will also wander once the sun goes down. Therefore, gamers might run into an active horde if they walk or ride near its usual route at night.To take down a horde inDays Gone, players should wait until they go back to their resting area during the day because they will be weaker and so they can find them all cooped up in a confined place, making it easier to set up the outside area with bombs and also to strike the first blow, whether it’s with an attractor bomb or a Molotov cocktail.
Ultimately, here is the time of day when each task is easier inDays Gone Remastered:
