7 Days To Die Is Finally Leaving Early Access After A Decade, Will Receive New Console Port
7 Days to Die helped kick off the zombie survival game craze, and now, over a decade since its initial release, it’s finally leaving Steam Early Access behind with its planned 1.0 update.
What was originally slated to be the game’s Alpha 22 update will instead become its long-awaited 1.0 update. The 1.0 update for 7 Days to Die is slated for June, with a new console version set to come in July. The plan is for the two versions of the game to keep update parity with one another, and though it won’t be live at launch, cross-play between consoles and PC is slated to be added in an update before year’s end. Launch will bring a new zombie gore system, updated visuals, a new challenge system, and more, according to The Fun Pimps.
It’s a huge moment that’s been a long-time coming, as The Fun Pimps explain in a comprehensive FAQ about the upcoming changes.
