Microsoft has announced that State of Decay 3 is in development for Xbox and PC. The game was announced during the Xbox Showcase. While there’s no release date or release window yet, the trailer was a mix of cinematics and gameplay.
According to the official trailer, State of Decay 3 is set years after the second game and in the same storyline. Players will fight back against the growing zombie threat while building communities of survivors. Sounds fairly similar to the first two games and that’s okay.
Microsoft has described State of Decay 3 as a huge evolution for the open world zombie survival series and Undead Labs. While the trailer showcases a much more evolved, darker, and much more dangerous world for players to survive in, the element of fun (and entertainment) still needs to find a place to live in this world full of the undead. Now with State of Decay 3, the overall quality is going to be turned up several notches to help it stand out even more from its predecessors.
Watch the announcement trailer below: We don’t know yet whether State of Decay will launch on other platforms such as PS5. At the moment it has been confirmed for Xbox and PC.
