7 Days to Die Version 3.0 Adds Sandbox Mode and Random Item Enhancements

The Fun Pimps released the stable version 3.0 of 7 Days to Die on June 30, bringing a sandbox mode with 150 adjustable settings, a random enhancement stat called Magnitude for equipment, over 60 new Points of Interest, and the Beachwear Armor Set DLC. The update is available on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PS5.

The sandbox mode lets players tweak 150 parameters, from movement speed and zombie damage multipliers to daylight hours and UI toggles. Presets like Chibi Mode, which shrinks zombies and makes them faster, are included and shareable. Magnitude, a random enhancement stat, now appears on weapons and tools alongside existing quality levels, encouraging exploration for better rolls. A Combine Station workstation lets players transfer Magnitude to higher-quality gear through crafting. Over 60 new Points of Interest were added, including the Champions Coliseum stadium. The Beachwear Armor Set DLC, which gives swimsuit skins, launched alongside the update. The UI was overhauled and crosshair editing was added. Mod and server configuration methods have changed, so administrators should check the patch notes.
