You know the drill by now: retailer reveals placeholder release date for anticipated PlayStation 4 game and websites go in search of SEO by spreading the most baseless of rumours. This time it's the turn of Austrian outlet GamesOnly, who have slapped a 22nd August date on Sony Bend's post-apocalyptic motorcycle title Days Gone.
Aside from the date being a Tuesday β when games typically release later in the week in Europe β we got the distinct impression that the zombie shooter is still quite early in production, so a launch in four months seems unlikely to us. Hey, it gives us an excuse to post this tin whistle cover of the title's theme tune, though:
Brilliant.

@TrueAssassin86x It's just a placeholder. Don't get excited.
Wooooooo! I'm so in love with the theme of Days Gone ! Just brilliant !
Surprised if this was a 2017 release though summer would be a better time for a new IP then the holiday period so could be.
@GAMINGLORY Yeah, I really like it.
Actually alot of games release on Tuesday (here in the UK atleast) but apparently all future Sony first party games will now release on Wednesday.
If Days Gone, God of War and Detroit Become Human not release this year until 2018 : very disappointing but GT Sport release this year. i really don't care about racing games like GT Sport
I suspect August 2018 would be closer to the mark.
@LieutenantFatman Exactly!
I wouldn't be surprised if it follows a similar pattern to Horizon. That was shown off at two E3's, planned for late 2016 and then delayed until March 2017. I wouldn't be surprised if this ends up as 'next' years big March release after Bloodbourne (2015), Uncharted 4 (2016) and Horizon:ZD (2017).
@BAMozzy uncharted was pushed to may π© Haha.
But..i want it! Now!... Its okay I hope they take their time and give us a brilliant masterpiece(??) because good or great I'm pretty sure I'll be buying this regardless day one...or day five lol
I wish it was true..
Dude they said this game has been in production for atleast 5 years, so yea i believe it plausible for it to release this year.
Has Elena left Nathan drake? The lady on the bike looks very familiar
Does seem unlikely for this year. Maybe fall/winter at best. It sure does look good though so hopefully it can live up to its billing.
Where was Celine Dion?
My guess is, they will release Days Gone after E3 2017.
My guess...
Ah, the glory of neck tattoos and minimum wage jobs.
Still not sure about this game. Potentially cool but something just holds me back from being excited, not sure what it is. Think it's either the biker styling or the worry that all of the best gameplay experiences will be too samey. Or both. Hope to be proven wrong, will be keeping an eye out for it at E3 to see how it's shaping up.
