ABOUT THE GAME
What is 7 Days to Die?
7 Days to Die blends open-world survival, crafting, base building and tower-defense-style horde nights. Dedicated servers are useful for groups that want a persistent world where bases, progression and scheduled Blood Moon cycles continue without relying on a player-hosted session.
Why a dedicated server?
Dedicated hosting gives the group an always-available world, direct configuration access and a safer place to manage backups before updates, wipes or major world changes.
