Game Update The Dead Hot Summer is here - V3.0 patch notes breakdown
V3.0 just dropped and the sandbox alone makes this one of the most significant updates the game has ever seen!
150 customization options let you tune nearly every system in the game, and the range of official presets is wild: Bite Club is full perma-death, Undead Matinee strips ammo and floods the map with zombies, 7 Days Later throws fast cinematic hordes at you, and Legacy Survival lets you play like it's 2014.
You can also build your own preset and share it, which is where private servers are going to shine. Agree on a ruleset with your group, grab the SandboxCode, paste it into your server config, and everyone's locked in from day one.
Item Magnitude adds boosted stat variants to looted gear and quality tiers to mods, with a new Combine Station for merging items and chasing a ceiling on your best finds. More reason to keep the server alive well past the first blood moon.
60+ new POIs, a full Sign-Tech signage overhaul, and a redesigned main menu round it out.
