Try using the Launcher/Tools/Clean game data... menu to sort things out. After cleaning, use Steam to verify files.
Not that I've ever had an issue remotely similar to this... yet, but what I would do in that case is to delete all traces of the game from the computer, including registry files and save files... start over from scratch. Then re-download the game and see if that works.
If that doesn't work, then something else is going on... make sure you meet minimum hardware requirements, try different launch options, make sure you're running compatible graphics settings like native resolution or 1080p / 1440p for those who can't quite handle 4k, etc.

I don't want to say it's GPU related as it doesn't sound like it at all this time and I am a bit biased against AMD based GPUs (mostly against their software, though I do love their CPUs), but you could try a previous version of the game as you mentioned to see if that helps too. But I'd try the latest stable version of the game before going backwards though.

Well, I did say start over from scratch... so ya, that was probably part of it unless that was stored in Steam cloud.
By any chance, do you have an antivirus running in the background or third party apps that monitor fps or screen capture, etc? There's a lot of apps out there that occasionally get in the way of games (including this one) from running correctly.

Enter this in your windows search bar to find your log files. "%appdata%\7DaysToDie\Logs" (without the quotes).
Copy the contents of your latest log to pastebin.com and then post the link here.

If that is really your entire log, it is something outside the game that is the problem. The log ends abruptly with no errors. You might check Event Viewer for an event logged at the same time as your game crash. If you noticed, your log’s title actually contains the day & time of you log. Bring up Event Viewer and scroll through to the day/time of your log and let us know if any errors are logged there.
