7 Days to Die: Storms Brewing Update Released
The apocalypse has evolved ☢️
The full release of Storms Brewing v2.0 is here! This is one of the most ambitious updates for 7 Days to Die. Everything about the game’s world and systems has been reimagined for a deadlier survival experience. From elemental survival to dynamic storms, new perks, crossplay features, and much more – there’s a lot to this update. Whether you’re starting fresh in the Pine Forest or pushing through radiation storms in the Wasteland, 7 Days to Die Storms Brewing v2.0 reshapes how you play the game.
Let’s explore what this update has to offer so you can begin your zombie survival adventure!
Biome Progression & Elemental Survival
Survival on your 7 Days to Die server now means adapting to your environment. The new Biome Progression system gives each biome a unique elemental hazard or challenge, enabled by default. Players must complete specific objectives to earn Biome Badges, which unlock permanent immunity and higher loot stage caps.
Biome Hazard Order:
- Pine Forest: The safe starting point
- Burnt Forest: Choke through ember clouds and black smoke
- Desert: Survive blistering heat
- Snow Biome: Battle freezing wind and cold
- Wasteland: Withstand high radiation fallout
Biome Challenges Include:
- Wearing proper gear or earning the previous biome’s badge
- Harvesting and mining local resources
- Crafting hazard remedies and consumables for resistance
- Killing biome-specific enemies
- Looting and spending time in each hazardous zone
As you conquer biomes, loot caps automatically increase. Want to raise the cap in a current biome? Complete the next biome’s challenges. Biome Progression can also be turned off in game or server settings, if you want to do that.
Dynamic Severe Storms
In this massive 7 Days to Die update, storms are more than just weather now. Players will quickly realize they’re deadly events that demand shelter and preparation. This new Dynamic Storm system introduces dangerous, biome-specific storms that appear randomly and in different severities. You’ll hear sirens and warnings, giving you a short window to find or build shelter before it’s too late.
Storm Types by Biome:
- Thunderstorms: All biomes (non-hazardous)
- Ember Storms: Burnt Forest
- Sand Storms: Desert
- Snow Storms: Snow biome
- Radiation Storms: Wasteland
Shelter protects against damage, but only Biome Badge holders are fully safe. Storms also feature new HUD warnings, VFX, and sound effects.
New Biome Zombies & Archetype Threats
With every biome, there are new nightmares to discover! Is that a good thing? Maybe. Regardless, each elemental region features its own terrifying zombie type, with the late-game being even harder.
New Enemies:

- 🧊 Frost Claw (Snow): Hurls icy boulders that cause splash damage
- ⚡ Charged Blue Zombies: Fast, erratic, and highly lethal

Zombies can now crawl through tight spaces, and many POIs have been reworked to take full advantage. Expect more surprise encounters than ever before.
