This is mainly because it seems the studio hasn’t made enough changes to justify the hype surrounding this major release. Graphically, the game still lags behind.

The Studio’s Roadmap Promises Many Changes for 2025

The lack of excitement among the 7 Days to Die community is compounded by the studio’s promise of new features in 2025.

The roadmap indicates that the game will also include a story mode and other enhancements to improve the gaming experience. This future promise excites players more than the current updates.

Another eagerly awaited feature is support for the Steam Workshop; however, fans are skeptical about its arrival anytime soon, given the studio’s slow pace. It’s likely we won’t see this feature until after 2025.

Many of the features in version 1.0 have been available in the experimental phase on PC for some time, reducing fan anticipation.

The community is divided on what they expect from this title. Some fans are calling for a graphical update, while others want a story mode. The studio decides what content to add to the game.

By the end of this month, the game will be fully available and stable on all platforms in the newly announced version 1.0.

I'm a big fan of movies and videogames in general. I really love Pokémon and Godzilla. One of my favorite games is The Last of Us, Part II. A compelling and well-written story is always welcome.
