Days Gone director, Jeff Ross, who as soon as criticized folks for purchasing the sport on sale, as soon as once more takes a jab at Sony for allegedly dropping $250 million on a brand new Bend Studio recreation not desirous to fund a Days Gone 2. The 2019 authentic recreation has become a cult recreation, however on the time was a panned recreation by critics and even followers.
On X (as noticed by MP1st), Ross shared some supposed numbers on an unannounced undertaking within the works over at Bend. It’s price stating that he hasn’t instantly labored on the studio since late 2020. Clearly, he nonetheless feels scorned by the rejection of a sequel, particularly as he was searching for the “cut price basement” value of $150 million.
No matter it’s, they’ve spent no less than 1 / 4 of a billion {dollars} on it. I am no businessman, however that is loopy given the very fact Sony did not wish to fund a DG sequel for the discount basement value of 100 fifty million (insane numbers throughout, tbh).

Our hunch is that this unannounced undertaking is the ever-teased one which Bend is engaged on. In the meantime, we aren’t certain, however this similar teased undertaking is similar because the stay service that it staffed up for earlier this yr. If true, we hope this subsequent recreation goes to be a extra speedy hit with its viewers than Days Gone was.
What do you suppose? Do you continue to cling to hope for a sequel? Does it deserve a second likelihood? Tell us under!
