Storms Brewing V2.0 Update has been delayed by several weeks, but the good news is more new enemies like the one pictured and the new Dynamic Severe Storm System will make it into the update. Read updated information below. Storms Brewing V2.0 Update Notes

Hello Survivors! After a smooth round of public experimental testing, we are pleased to announce the Stable Release of v1.4 b8. While not delivering the new features, enemies, and action packed POIs of the upcoming v2.0 release, this important bug fix build addresses a series of issues, including some that were preventing quest completions at higher tier POIs (Looking at you, Grover High). In preparation of the deprecation of the Twitch SubPub architecture we have switched over to using EventSub for Twitch Integration for a seamless transition. The Dynamic Music System also got a fix for some audio clips looping or cutting out, and server operators can rest a little easier knowing that a dupe exploit involving vending machines has been resolved which should help keep server economies from imploding. Check out the change log for the rest, and stay tuned for announcements regarding the v2.0 Developer Streams coming soon to a screen near you! TFP wishes you a great weekend! Changed

• Migrated Twitch Integration to the EventSub API to prepare for the upcoming deprecation of PubSub architecture

• Issues with DMS music cutting out and looping prematurely
• Twitch Shared Chat fires chat commands on all streams
• Bug report button in the options > general menu should be hidden on Mac and Linux
• Server/MP client Vending Machine dupe with medium+ ping
• Sleeper volume would not be marked clear if all enemies killed before min script ended
• Sleeper volume min script will fail to spawn zombies if group name is wrong so quests may not be completable
• Sleeper volume min script triggers don't work if player is outside the POI bounds

Hello Survivors! While the team is working hard to get out v2.0 in the near future, we have a small, but important v1.4 update for you all. This update addresses the looping music issue, several reasons why bigger POIs were not able to be completed and a big backend change for Twitch to address the shutting down of the "pub sub" system mid April. Here is how you participate: [olist]

7 Days is on sale now for 35% Off for the Steam Spring Sale. Play the definitive zombie survival sandbox RPG that came first! Get 7 Days to Die Now!

Hey Survivors, We have been very busy working on the Storms Brewing V2.0 Update and thought we should share its status. Although it has taken significantly longer than anticipated the build is jam packed with a ton of fantastic new content, new challenges, progression updates, optimizations and a whole lot more. We are aiming for an April 15th Steam Experimental Release and a Stable Release on all platforms in early May if all goes as planned. Note: The list below is not a complete list as many details are missing and several features are in the works but are not listed as they may not make it in time. More complete information will come towards launch. For those commenting on our new 7 Days Blood Moons Game you should know that the game is published by TFP and developed by Illogika Studios and has not impacted our progress on 7 Days to Die updates.

Hey Survivors, Here is an update for the status of our 1.2 Crossplay Patch, 1.3 Japanese Patch and the 2.0 Storms Brewing Patch. Read on for more information: 7 Days Winter Patch Status

Hello Survivors! Here we have a small patch for you for our existing V1.2 EXP. TFP wishes all a great weekend! Added

• Blood moon party maximum active enemy count with increased game stage scaling based on the full count

• Optimized vehicles to not use a container object
• Increased blood moon party distance to add players

• Invisible character when being transported out of trader on vehicle
• Vehicle camera position glitches when origin shift happens
• EntityFactory GetEntityType warnings from missing types

b25 Hotfix:

• Moving animals appear almost invisible with certain FSR settings

Hello Survivors! Here is V1.2 b22 EXP for you all. While the team is all hands on deck working on V2.0, we wanted you all to get the fixes, optimizations and console crossplay preparations sooner rather than later. With this build we introduce various optimizations to all platforms, but also unleash the ability to generate RWG maps to our Console fans. Crossplay will be fully enabled once experimental ends, V1.2 goes STABLE and our Console users get access to V1.2. Until then there will be no-one to crossplay with. This will open up crossplay between PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC clients, however no dedicated servers just yet. V1.2 should be compatible with existing save games, but we recommend starting a new game for the very best experience. Here is how you participate: [olist]

Hey Survivors! We're back with our latest hotfix, v1.0 b336. This update fixes a major bug causing characters in saves with the 'Enemy Spawning' setting toggled off and back on to become fully encumbered and unresponsive. This was part of a larger problem related to an NRE involving sleeper volumes in specific POIs. This hotfix will also correct save files affected by this issue. For our console users, this update also includes some stability improvements, specifically on the Xbox X/S platform. While summer vacation may be almost over, we're STILL hard at work on optimizations, bug fixes, Roadmap updates, and getting v1.1 Experimental to you. Be sure to follow us on X for more updates! https://x.com/7DaystoDie

Hello Survivors! After another successful round of bug fixing and balancing based on all of your tremendous feedback, we are pleased to announce our latest release for experimental testing, v1.1 b4. This update addresses some problems related to vehicle interaction with player colliders, as well as some audio issues, and a TON of smaller fixes to various POIs. As such, a new game is highly recommended in order to experience these updated POIs in all of their glory. We didn't forget about the modders, bringing a fix for an NRE related to custom sign text in custom POIs, adding a GameShuttingDown mod event, and have updated the rwgmixer to allow custom district names via XML. For our console users, expect to see these changes and more once v1.1 Stable is released. What's next? Our efforts continue to be focused on squashing bugs and working hard to get closer to a v1.1 Stable release, so stay tuned for future updates! To get access to this version: [olist]

Greetings Survivors, As we approach December 13th, we're excited to celebrate the 10th anniversary of this game. This Thanksgiving not only marks a time of gratitude but also commemorates the 11th anniversary since the game's conception. Currently, our dedicated team is diligently working on the 22nd major release. It's incredible to reflect on our journey as The Fun Pimps, growing from a team of 3 to a robust group of over 60 individuals. Throughout this decade, we've consistently invested 90% of our resources into our passion project, 7 Days to Die, and this commitment remains unwavering. If this isn't a labor of love, we're not sure what is. We invite you to show your support by voting for your favorite deserving survival game. Thank you for being part of this incredible journey! Sincerely, The Fun Pimps

Hello Survivors! Just in time for the extended Thanksgiving Weekend, TFP is proud to present A21.2 Stable! With the entire 7 Days to Die team working tirelessly to roll out A22 as soon as possible, we've implemented numerous fixes and changes that we know you'll love! This latest release adds a much anticipated feature: Death penalty options! You can now choose from Nothing, Classic, Injured (respawn with most debuffs still active), and Perma-death (your entire profile is wiped, and you start fresh in the same savegame). We've also added the ability to lock inventory slots. Click the arrow buttons to indicate how many slots to lock, starting from the top left-most slot in the Player Inventory. Those locked slots will be unaffected by the Sort Inventory, Fill Stacks, and Move all buttons. This is a great way to ensure you have your required Ammo, Food and Water, or Medical Supplies on you at all times to fully augment your playstyle. The drone also got some love, with emphasis on several fixes for lost drones and improve pathing in certain situations. This should result in fewer drones getting stuck. For a more comprehensive list of updates included in this release, please refer to the complete changelog below. From all us us at TFP, we wish you a joyous and Happy Thanksgiving!

POI Localization

Infestation Quests

• Merging highways between gateway tiles and township rural tiles has been added
• A new scoring system for prefab pick ordering, xml entries to help control overall placement, spawn weights, and min max counts ensure POIs dont repeat too often.
• Country Tiles have been added which give the rural areas more believable surrounds for POIS to spawn
• Road smoothing has been greatly improved.
• A new street tile system that uses an overworld grid to allow for more concise placement of wilderness, towns, and highways.
• A New Game button has been added to the Advanced Generation screen to allow players to immediately play the map they have generated without having to remember the map name.

Chunk Reset System

Survival Rebalance

• To enhance the survival experience, water collection has been rebalanced by removing empty jars and cans.
• Boiled water now requires a cooking pot to craft in the campfire.
• Most clean water and drinks have been extremely lowered in loot.
• A new Dew Collector workstation has been added to provide clean drinking water.
  • Crafted in the player backpack, players will need to visit a trader to obtain a key component: a water filter.
  • Water is slowly accumulated over time at a rate of approximately 3 jars every 24 game hours.
  • Players can place multiple Dew Collectors
  • DewCollectors must have a clear view of the sky.
    • Bars and other see-through shapes are acceptable to be placed above.
• Drink Vending machines have had quantities increased including specialized drinks.
• Due to water used in crafting, glue has been increased in loot, quest rewards, and trader inventories.

Crafting Skills System

• Previously, players could max out a perks crafting quality unlock with primitive tools and weapons and then instantly craft higher tiers once the materials were found or unlocked. A good example of this would be a stone ax that could be crafted at quality 5, but then iron and steel pickaxes could be crafted at that same quality level.

• Players are no longer required to perk into various classes to obtain the unlocks. All crafting skills can be unlocked by all players.
• The unlocks are removed from perks, however, each level of a perk will give a probability boost to certain magazines. An example would be the perk Boomstick giving a boost to finding more of the Shotgun Weekly magazines. Boomstick will also boost shotguns, shotgun parts, and the various types of shotgun ammo found in loot.

Perk Overhaul

• Sexual Tyrannosaurus has been moved to each weapon perk. Players no longer have to perk into Strength to get the stamina benefits of ole Sexy T. Want better stamina with clubs? Put perk points into Pummel Pete and keep from getting winded too soon.

• Flurry of Blows has been moved into each Attribute as a new perk.
  • Perception: Quick and Perceptive Increases the attack speed of spears
  • Strength: Big and Fast Increases the attack speed of clubs and sledges
  • Fortitude: Lightning Hands Increases the attack speed of fists and fist weapons
  • Agility: Whirlwind Increases the attack speed of knives
  • Intellect: Calculated Attack Increases the attack speed of batons

• Physician perk has gained the ability to treat sprains and give more XP when using healing items. Dismemberment gets a boost with batons on level 4 while level 5 has a chance to instantly kill the target with a stun baton.

• Master Chef allows players to cook faster with each level.
• Lock Picking moved to Intellect

• Grease Monkey grants the ability to use fewer repair kits when repairing vehicles
  • Zombies and animals are now killed nearly instantly when hit by a vehicle, but the vehicle takes more damage than previous versions.
  • Vehicles also take more damage when hitting objects or taking hard landings.

Perk Book Reworks

• Spear Hunter Vol 3 changed from Steel Spear Unlock to Bleeding Damage
  • Spears have a 25% chance to cause bleeding damage.
• Spear Hunter Vol 4 changed from Strong Arm to Kill Move
  • Power attacks do 50% more damage to downed targets.
• Spear Hunter Vol 6 changed from Punctured Lung to Penetrating Shaft
  • Power attacks now penetrate and damage multiple enemies.
• Spear Hunter Complete
  • Primal Kill: Kills with spears refill your stamina.
• Automatic Weapons Vol 7 changed from M60 Unlock to Hip Fire
  • Aiming from the hip with greater accuracy can save your ass in close quarters situations.
• Batter Up Vol 2 changed from Gear to Stealing Bases
  • Sprinting with a club drawn in combat uses 20% less stamina.
• Batter Up Vol 6 changed from Bat Unlock to Foul Balls
  • Power attacks with clubs have a 20% chance to ragdoll enemies.
• The Great Heist Vol 3 changed from Timed Charges Unlock to Gold Rush
  • Find 10% more dukes and old cash
• The Great Heist Complete
  • Find 20% more lockpicks in loot
• Art of Mining Vol 7 changed from Mining Helmet Unlock to Damage
  • Mining tools do 10% more block damage.

Perception and Spear Overhaul

Recipe Tracker

Crafting Quality Selection

Loot Balancing

Starter Quest

HUD-less Mode

Spawn Near Backpack

Vehicle Damage

• Vehicle collisions take more damage, but also cause more damage, so repair kits are more relevant to game play.
• Repair kits repair a fixed amount of damage instead of all vehicle damage
• New blood splatter when hitting entities
• Improved ragdoll hits and can cause dismemberment on hit entities
• Additional spark effects when hitting blocks
• Improved block collision damage calculations

Wandering Hordes

Twitch Extension

Performance & Optimizations

• Unity version update
• Window block optimizations
  • All Windows have been converted to shapes which are more performant.
  • Full windows downgrade to broken.
  • Broken and Empty windows upgrade to Full.
  • Only Full windows can upgrade material.
• Improved prop LOD transition values by adding LOD categories so similar props cross fade at the same distances. They also cull at more relevant distances which improves performance.
• Trees (adjustments to meshes and settings for better performance)
• AI can handle more zombies by throttling their activity based on distance to player
• AI pathing can handle many more paths per second
• Less memory use
• A variety of other small performance optimizations

Networking Improvements

• Greatly reduced network traffic
• Entities have variable update rate based on distance

Server Administration and Multiplayer

WebDashboard

• Normally you define API tokens in the serveradmin.xml or via the webtokens command, but you can also define one API token on the command line with the -webapitokenname=x and -webapitokensecret=y arguments which will define a single token with permission level 0
• The API endpoint to issue commands is /api/command. The token name and secret need to be passed as HTTP headers X-SDTD-API-TOKENNAME and X-SDTD-API-SECRET. The request needs to use the POST method and contain a JSON body consisting of {command: command to execute}

• WebDashboardEnabled toggles the whole system on or off
• WebDashboardPort specifies the TCP port to run the interface on
• WebDashboardUrl should contain the full URL that points to the dashboard, e.g. to a reverse proxy forwarding to the internal dashboard, like https://proxydomain:8000/. If the server can be reached with its public IP directly this value can be left empty
• EnableMapRendering decides whether the game renders the map tiles to corresponding images that can be seen on the Web Dashboard or used with other tools to get a full view of the discovered game map.

Hello Survivors! With the Experimental phase of A21 coming soon, we want to patch an issue we found during testing. This patch only addresses a benign save game compatibility error users would encounter when returning to A20 after a session in A21 Exp. This patch does not contain any content you may have seen in an A20.7 Twitch build, those features will roll out with A21. Please remember A20 savegames will not work with the A21 version, you will have to start anew. Stay alert for developer stream announcements to catch the latest news about A21! You can find out more about streams in our forum.

TFP is proud to announce the Alpha 21 Developer Streams begin Wednesday night April 12th at 9 PM CST. Join Co-Founders Richard Huenink, Joel Madmole Huenink & Senior Developer Lathan (@fubar_prime) for the first look at Alpha 21! Tune in for Free Keys! fubar_prime

Hello Everyone! We have another stable patch for Alpha 20. With the overwhelming majority of the team working full steam on A21, we took some time to merge fixes and changes to A20 for your enjoyment. Due to Microsoft requirements, custom prefabs can no longer be saved directly to the game folder. They will be saved to the User Defined Folder (UDF). This default location is: \AppData\Roaming\7DaysToDie\LocalPrefabs To avoid having to re-save each POI one at a time in the prefab editor, all POI's currently located in... \Steam\steamapps\common\7 Days To Die\Data\Prefabs ...should be manually moved to the UDF. The UDF can be declared in the game launcher as a command line parameter. Add the following to the command line: Format: -UserDataFolder= Example: -UserDataFolder=C:\MyUserData The UDF can also be set in the serverconfig.xml file. Format: Example:

TFP will be deprecating Easy Anti Cheat support for all builds prior to Alpha 20.4 on July 1st. Users can still play older builds but may need to turn off EAC in the launcher. Alpha 20.4 and newer builds will continue to have EAC running through the Epic Online Services. We have chosen to use this service as it will make future game browser and network cross play support possible. Cheers The Fun Pimps

Hello everyone! While the majority of the team is heavy at work on Alpha 21, we are excited to give you A20.4 b42 stable today! Server owners will need to add/modify these 2 new properties in the serverconfig.xml. These filters will help players find your server. Values must be one of the following: NorthAmericaEast, NorthAmericaWest, CentralAmerica, SouthAmerica, Europe, Russia, Asia, MiddleEast, Africa, Oceania Values: Use any language name that your players would expect to search for. Should be the English name of the language, e.g. not "Deutsch" but "German". This is a filter name only and DOES NOT SET the language for players. If no region is entered on the server end, you will not be able to find the server. For everyone who played EXP: There is no change between b41 and b42, we just had to adjust the buildnumber. A20.4 b42 changelog: Added

• Language selection under Video > UI. Defaults to the platform's language (on Steam the language that is selected in Steam for the game, otherwise the host system's language)
• EOS P2P networking for cross platform P2P games
• Destroy area attacks partial blocks it moves into
• AI ApproachAndAttackTarget decreases path update rate at farther distances
• Path generation canceling on a new path request
• Cr console command u, utimed and ue parameters

• Launcher on Windows now stores log files in %APPDATA%/7DaysToDie/logs folder
• Screenshots are stored in /Screenshots (i.e. the folder that also stores saves, e.g. on Windows %APPDATA%/7DaysToDie/Screenshots)
• Mods are now loaded from /Mods (i.e. the folder that also stores saves, e.g. on Windows %APPDATA%/7DaysToDie/Mods) in addition to /Mods. In a future build this will change to only load from that new location so no data is written/changed in the program folder at any time.
• Reduced sleeper volume attack target time
• Changed SkyManager to explicitly set shadowCustomResolution for the moon and sun lights based on the ingame "Shadow Distance" setting: 1k for Low/Medium, 2k for High, and 4k for Ultra/Ultra+. This gives more consistent results in terms of performance and fidelity when changing the setting, regardless of the user's output screen resolution.
• MacOS builds target x86_64 only for now until third party code supports M1 you can still run the game on M1 Macs with Rosetta, but you no longer manually have to enable it
• Reduced achievement goals for: Dying, PvP kills, game stage, and staying alive
• Favorite and history servers are now stored independently of Steam

• Zombie pathing/digging can fail/struggle when the player is too far underground
• Fixed shadow clipping bug in the SpeedTree8 shader by implementing Unity's SHADOW_CASTER macros to correctly handle shadow pancaking.
• Server list not updating the table when new data for an existing entry comes in
• Changing server list sorting did not apply until filters are changed or a new server shown
• Resetting filters in the server browser causes any filter fields that are min/max input only (like game days) to fail
• Playing doctor achievement triggers without proper requirements
• Billboard shapes had inconsistent harvest events

Weve just released Alpha 17.3 Stable! Release Notes:

We've just released Alpha 17.3 Experimental B18 For A17.3 we have set focus on bug fixes and RWG. We have fixed the issue which caused chunks to be reset to their original state, often affecting players' bases. For RWG we worked over to remove the POI replication spawns (radio tower cities), reworked the roads so be more vehicle-friendly, overworked the world layout and adjusted the placement of POIs and cities. This framework we are backporting to 17.3 is part of a larger Alpha 18 plan to make it awesome. Alpha 17.3 Experimental B18

Hey Folks, We hope everyone had a Merry Christmas. The Fun Pimps are taking a long-needed development break through New Years. But not to worry we will be back to work after New Years and onto patching Alpha 17. Alpha 17 is not perfect by any means but a big step forward towards the vision we have had for the game for a long time. We have heard some valid concerns of the community and will be making needed adjustments to the game in the coming weeks along with bug fixes, optimizations and balance. We are gathering data on a case by case basis, balancing and addressing the true problem areas most of which so far center around optimizations, stamina, balancing XP for all play styles, land claims, increasing zombie loot drop chance, zombie block damage, skill/perk balance and gating and random world gen improvements.
