Finding all 40 Days Gone Horde locations is a real challenge as the map is massive and many don't get revealed until much later in the game. What's even more of a challenge is killing the Hordes as hundreds of feral Freakers pour from caves and buildings to try and reach you. Dealing with these Days Gone enemies can be brutally difficult if you're not prepared and packing plenty of firepower, so that's why we've made a separate guide on how to kill Hordes in Days Gone too. 

This guide focuses purely on the locations of these Hordes, both so that you can clear them out and avoid them if necessary. Note that the Days Gone Horde maps below detail where you can find the hordes when they're asleep during the day, so bear in mind that they'll roam around at night. There are also three hordes you fight as part of the story that don't appear on the map as you have to 'find' them. Several Hordes also won't appear on the map until you've finished the game and rolled the credits.

It's quite an undertaking, so here are all the Freaker Horde locations in Days Gone laid out per map region.
