Is 7 Days to Die Cross Platform With Cross-Play Support?

PC players are left in the cold when it comes to cross-play in 7 Days to Die.
Is 7 Days to Die Cross Platform With Cross-Play Support?

It's hard to believe that 7 Days to Die has been in early access on Steam since 2013 and came to Xbox One and PlayStation 4 three years later in 2016, which is unusual in itself for an unfinished game. Nonetheless, players from across the globe fell in love with the survival horror, and with an insane number of updates and upgrades added to the game, it's left many asking if it features cross-play support.

If you are one of the people asking this question, then have no fear, as we have the answer for you - though it might not necessarily be the one you're hoping for... 

Does 7 Days to Die Feature Cross-Play Support?

The short answer is yes and no. 7 Days to Die features partial cross-play support, and what this means is that players who play on PlayStation 4/5 and/or Xbox consoles can play together freely, with no issues. Good news for all console players! Yay! 

Sadly, for PC players, the situation isn't as much a happy one. Players who are playing 7 Days to Die on PC cannot play with players who are playing on consoles. Of course, PC players can continue to enjoy the zombie-killing fun with other PC players, but if you have friends playing on PlayStation 4, 5, or Xbox, then you won't be able to play together - for now.

Will Cross-Play Support Ever Come to PC?

It's always a possibility that the PC version of 7 Days to Die will feature cross-play support in some capacity in the future, with it likely becoming available with the full release of the game, whenever that may be. 

It's likely that the reason behind the PC version lacking crossplay right now is due to the console versions being slightly behind in updates, with the PC version ahead in many ways. 

Speaking of which, Alpha 21 is seemingly right around the corner, so here's everything we know so far about that.
