7 Days To Die Patch Notes: A21.2 Update and Latest Changes
The Fun Pimps

7 Days to Die is an open-world game that is a combination of first-person shooter, survival horror, tower defense, and RPG.

That's where we'll hopefully come in, as below, we'll be keeping you up to date on the latest patch notes for the game.
