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 remained undisclosed. This news may disappoint fans, yet it's a more positive outlook than previous estimations pointing to a 2027 release.
June's trailer showcased intense zombie gun battles and Mad Max-style vehicular combat in a post-apocalyptic setting. The game's narrative will focus on human settlements struggling for survival years after the apocalypse.
State of Decay 3 is slated for PC and Xbox Series X|S release. The last installment in the series launched in 2018.
