Days Gone 2 Fans Aren't Giving Up As Petition Nears 150,000 Supporters
The Change.org petition for Days Gone 2 could soon reach a whopping 150,000 supporters, proving that fans of the original have yet to give up hope for a sequel. Days Gone 2's fan-made petition hit the ground running in April 2021, managing to garner over 35,000 signatures within just a week of its launch.

But the passion for a new Deacon-starring adventure lives on, especially in the wake of claims about the first title allegedly performing as well as Sucker Punch's Ghost of Tsushima, which will likely receive a follow-up.
