Patch Rewards Remover – Clean Challenge ModeThis mod completely removes all gameplay buffs tied to challenge patches in Days Gone.That means no more bonus health, stamina, focus regen, melee durability, bike refuel speed, or bullet penetration. You can still complete challenges, earn patches, and equip them — but they won’t make Deacon any stronger in the main game.It’s perfect for players who enjoy the challenge content but don’t want those rewards to make the story mode feel too easy or unbalanced.

What it does:
  • Sets all patch stat values to 0

  • Keeps patch visuals and unlock system intact

  • Affects Bronze, Silver, and Gold tiers equally

  • Safe for existing saves

Why use it?

Some players want the cosmetic and completion aspect of challenges but prefer a more grounded, survival-focused main game experience. This mod delivers that, no god mode, no accidental OP stats. Just a cleaner, Buff Free playthrough.
