7 Days To Die Running On PS5
In one of the most recent updates, the developers confirmed that 7 Days To Die is coming on the PS5. They even had gameplay footage of the game running on the PS5 (seen below). In the footage, the PS5 version of the game is running on the Alpha 21 build. So 7 Days To Die on the PS5 could potentially come out with the Alpha 21 build of the game. But it is more likely that the PS5 release will come with Alpha 22. It seems like the developers want the PS5 version to launch on the newest update possible. So an Alpha 21 launch might not happen for the PS5 version of the game.
What To Expect With 7 Days To Die On The PS5
Although 7 Days To Die still remains in early access, the game is absolutely filled with content. There is a reason why people are still loyally playing this game although it has been in early access for nearly 10 years. With that in mind, the developers will want to have the PS5 version of the game feel as fresh as possible.
That means the Alpha 22 version will likely bring something new for everyone, not just PS5 players. New weapons, new mechanics, and a lot more are expected for the PS5 version of the game.
