Days Gone may have been a popular release for Bend Studio, but the developer’s community manager has now apologized for fans being “fed false hope and poor information” about sequels while the team is “working on a new IP.”

“I apologize to our Days Gone community for continuously getting fed false hope and poor information by people looking for likes. It’s not fair to you all,” McAllisterwriteson Twitter. “We are currently working on a new IP, and when we have actual news to share it will come from our studio.”

For now, at least, the message from McAllister is clear – don’t build your hopes up for a Days Gone sequel any time soon.
