7 Days to Die

7 Days to Die is considered a “survival horde crafting” genre. Originally only for the pc, console gamers will be happy to here that they also may enjoy the game when it releases for ps4 and Xbox one, the 28th of this month (June 28th, 2016). It essentially combines the crafting and flexibility of minecraft with the zombie and survival elements of the walking dead.

With millions of pc players worldwide, and absurd amounts of gameplay hours recorded by youtubers, it’s a can’t miss that really stands out to the survival horror fans. Available for pc since 2013, console gamers finally get to experience what all the hype is about. There have been many updates for the game, functionality, graphics, bug fixes, additional content, overall gameplay, etc. It is said that split screen functionality will be available for the console versions, along with many other features. The price for the game will be set at the recommended $29.99 USD, seeing as the game isn’t actually launching as a new game, rather it’s launching to multiple platforms. It’s a must-play, I’ve been a big fan for multiple years now, and am excited to see it make its debut to the console audience.

This will widen the availability of the game greatly, and give other gamers the chance to experience such a wonderful work of art. The concept of the game is this: You’re in a wasteland, the zombie apocalypse has actually happened. You’re alone, and must rely upon nothing more than instincts to survive. Find food. Find shelter. Stay alive. You must venture out, find weapons, find building materials, learn how to craft different items, and hunt for food and water. Beware though, that every day that passes, the game becomes a bit more difficult. Although the zombies are slow and sluggish during the day, as night approaches, things take a turn for the worst. I hope this was helpful to any newcomers to the game, happy hunting, and good luck.
