Gaming insider Jez Corden, in a recent Xbox Two podcast appearance, projected a 2026 release for State of Decay 3. While Undead Labs initially aimed for a 2025 launch, Corden suggests an early 2026 debut is now more likely.
Corden indicated that development is further along than publicly perceived, though specifics remain undisclosed. This news may disappoint fans, yet it's a more positive timeline than previous speculation pointing to a 2027 release.
June's trailer offered a glimpse into the game's Mad Max-inspired post-apocalyptic setting, featuring intense zombie gunfights and vehicular combat. The narrative will unfold years after the initial apocalypse, focusing on human survival and the establishment of fortified settlements against the undead horde.
State of Decay 3 is slated for PC and Xbox Series X|S release. The last installment in the series launched in 2018.
