Apr. 24, 20247 Days To Die Announces The End Of Its Early Access After More Than 10 Years
The Fun Pimps, the development studio behind 7 Days to Die, announced that after eleven years, the game will end its early access phase and reach version 1.0 in its next update scheduled for June on PC. However, console users who purchased the Early Access version will need to buy the game again to get this new version.
“Due to significant technical differences between the previous and current console hardware, we will not update the legacy version. Owners of this version will have to purchase the new title,” stated Richard Huenink, co-founder of the company.
However, Huenink mentioned that they are considering some form of assistance: “We are working closely with Sony and Microsoft to offer a discount to owners of digital legacies when purchasing the new console edition.” At the same time, the current edition of the game will soon be unavailable in the digital stores of PlayStation and Xbox.
As for PC players, the situation is completely different: users who purchased early access will be able to acquire update 1.0 at no additional cost. However, they will not be able to use their current progress in the new edition, so they will have to start the game over.
Furthermore, the most significant update arrives at the end of next year, with The Road Ahead update, which includes the story mode, a new type of mission, and compatibility with Steam Workshop.
The Fun Pimps confirmed that, after the release of this new version of the game, they will provide more information about upcoming updates, making it clear that 7 Days to Die still has much to offer to its community.
