Days Gone Motion Sickness: Why It Happens & What Helps
Days Gone is an open-world survival game where you ride a motorbike and fight hordes of Freakers. The official PC FAQ lists a field of view option up to 100 degrees plus motion blur and chromatic aberration settings. Days Gone Remastered on PS5 added a Field of View slider, Recenter Camera on Attack and Game Speed, and Bend Studio says most of those features came to PC too. The sources opened list no camera shake setting. Checked October 2026.

Why Days Gone can trigger motion sickness
Long bike rides through the open world and crowded fights against hordes keep the camera moving. The official PC FAQ lists motion blur and chromatic aberration among the display settings, and a field of view option up to a maximum of 100 degrees. The PS5 remaster added a Field of View slider and Recenter Camera on Attack. Game Speed can drop to 75, 50 or 25 percent, which Bend says is meant for players who feel overwhelmed, such as when fighting off hordes.
