"From Success to Shutdown: The Rise and Fall of 'Days Gone' and the Future of Its Developers"

 The development journey of "Days Gone" has been a rollercoaster ride, marked by both commercial success and unexpected setbacks. Originally planned as a trilogy, the game initially surpassed 7 million copies sold, with its late primary writer at Sony suggesting sales exceeded 9 million. Despite these figures indicating substantial success and ongoing franchise potential, Sony decided to halt further development entirely, despite originally planning it as a flagship PlayStation exclusive trilogy.

The second installment was reportedly in development before Sony canceled it. According to recent statements from the game's writer, John Garvin, "Days Gone" was intended as a trilogy from the outset. However, Sony's decision redirected the team to support Naughty Dog on a different project, eventually leading to the studio's development of a completely new title leveraging the core mechanics of "Days Gone."

Details about this new title remain scarce, except that it will build upon the open-world systems of "Days Gone" but set in a new world. The team expressed great enthusiasm for this project, including a multiplayer mode, and has committed to revealing gameplay when ready.

Recent rumors suggest that the upcoming game from the developers of "Days Gone" may potentially launch in 2025, though specifics remain speculative at this time.
