7 Days to Die for PS4 and Xbox One is a console port from the Alpha 15 PC version of the game. Even though the game has not received updates, it is still enjoyable solo or with a group of friends. The Console edition of the game has split screen for local multiplayer for 2 players. Updates to the Xbox and PS4 versions of the game have been delayed for years due to Telltale games going bankrupt and being unable to fulfill their obligation to the console players.
Regarding future updates for the Console edition, it has been officially announced that there is work being made to the console edition as said in a September 2022 tweet by the Developers. Also stated that there will be no console update now. You will be required to buy a new game. Fun pimps stated that they may give a discount to owners of 7 days to die since they did a prerelease of the game on the fact that they were going to update but could not because TellTale Had publishing rights and telltale was going bankrupt therefore FunPimps could not release the updates.

- Skill system is limited
