Days Gone plays with its world. At the beginning, you can only explore one third, then two thirds, and finally the entire map. So as the story grows, so does the open world in the PlayStation 4-exclusive adventure.

There are also numerous important points hidden on the map. Here we show you not only the entire map, but also all NERO facilities and all ambush camps.

1. Construction of NERO facilities and ambush camps

The main optional ports of call in the world of Days Gone are NERO facilities and ambush camps. The former always come with an injection that you can use to permanently improve protagonist Deacon's health, stamina and concentration.

NERO facilities are divided into research stations and checkpoints. The former are usually smaller and come with a minimal challenge - such as jumping over a ravine. Control points are small camps that often have freakers or enemies running around.

Once you've eliminated them, you should quickly unscrew all the speakers from the huts and shoot from the spotlights. Your task is to fill the generator with gasoline. If you have done this and not destroyed all the speakers, the following noise will attract hordes. If you miss something, shoot it quickly.

Ambush camps, on the other hand, always mean that you should kill all the enemies. It's best to sneak here, as you'll save ammunition and gradually decimate the superior numbers. After that, you'll have to find a hatch that leads to a map and reveals a part of the world on your map. This is the only way to get an overview of the entire area.
