📋 About This Mod

Undead Country was made with the intention of changing the core gameplay loop. Instead of a mostly dead world with

only a few zombies outside, most of the zombies roam the streets. T1 and T2 Guns are easier to obtain while you still have to

craft T3. You can progress with exploration or quests and are not forced to do one or the other. The world also has

changed. The forest and every other biome can now spawn huge cities. Small towns have better POIs as well. New, more

dangerous zombies are also a threat.

For 7dtd V2. 0 and up.

You will likely have 600 zombies killed at day 6.

"It's not hard enough" OK put it on insane nightmare feral sense always on.

IMPORTANT: Once the have the mod installed, generate a new world if you want the map changes.
