Potential Major Update Coming for 7 Days to Die Fans on July 25

7 Days to Die is set to release on Xbox Series X/S and PS5 on July 25, finally bringing the console versions up to date with the PC version that already received the highly anticipated 1.0 update. This update promises new features like an updated character system and graphics overhaul, exciting long-time fans who have been eagerly awaiting the console versions to catch up with the PC version.

The Long-Awaited 1.0 Update for 7 Days to Die on Consoles

If all goes according to plan, 7 Days to Die will be coming to Xbox Series X/S and PS5 on July 25. While console versions of 7 Days to Die have long existed for the PS4 and Xbox One, most fans' complaints have been that the game had been stuck in limbo for the longest time. Its Early Access tag had long been the concern of many players, especially because it had been left behind by the PC version in terms of updates and features.

Some fans consider 7 Days to Die a cult classic. While it hasn't reached the levels of fellow sandbox or survival horror games, it has achieved its own success and has nurtured a pretty respectable player base. Many consider the PC version as superior with how alive the community is on that platform. With the PC version previously launching the experimental 1.0 update, it seems the console versions may be following suit.

According to the official 7 Days to Die Twitter account, version 1.0 of the game is scheduled to arrive on July 25 for both PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. Granted, fans still have to wait for approval, as the date mentioned is only official if the title passes certification with both Microsoft and Sony. Those curious about the game's performance may want to check out 7 Days to Die's 1.0 version on PC, as the developers have mentioned that all versions will be on the same footing once the launch is complete. In addition, once the Xbox Series X/S and PS5 versions go live, the old versions will be delisted.

Key Features in 7 Days to Die Version 1.0:

*Revamped Character System

*Overhauled Clothing and Armor

*Enhanced Challenge System

*New Points of Interest

*Updated Visual Effects and Graphics

*Improved Optimization

Many new features will be coming out for the 1.0 release of 7 Days to Die. Apart from system optimization, the updated VFX and graphics will be a key point. Fresh points of interest and challenge systems will also be implemented. Not to mention, an overhauled character system will also be present for those interested. Unfortunately, the upcoming release will not be a free update, as it is a full change from the original version. This is quite understandable, considering the huge leap in terms of game content.

With many changes coming out soon, fans may need to refresh themselves on how to play the game. 7 Days to Die has a lot of unwritten rules that players may want to review before jumping into the game once again. Whether everything from the old game is still applicable is not yet known. However, those with experience from the previous version may have better familiarity, since the title still follows the foundation that the previous versions built.
