“One of the biggest accessibility expansions coming to Days Gone Remastered is a fully customisable High Contrast Mode,” wrote Bend Studio’s Kevin McAllister, with the developer stating this “pairs with our High Contrast HUD that was implemented in the original game to assist with easier navigation and visibility”.
Players will be able to make the most of this feature from the off, with subtitles, High Contrast Mode and more options available via Days Gone Remastered’s initial setup screen, which is another new addition.
Speaking of subtitles, the development team has added 11 colours for users to choose from. These can be mixed and matched for things like the speaker’s name and the subtitle text. Subtitle backgrounds can also be changed, with Bend adding more options for users than before. “Now, you can select between default (transparent), darkened, light, and black,” McAllister explained.
On the audio side of things, Bend has added UI Narration and Collectible Audio Cues for Days Gone Remastered.
“At Bend Studio, we strive to create experiences that leave a lasting impact on our players,” McAllister closed. “The pursuit of allowing players of all abilities to share our joy of play together inspires our work every day. We hope you enjoy the definitive version of our open world epic, and we can’t wait to see you hop on the Drifter bike and experience all Days Gone Remastered has to offer.”
