Gaming insider Jez Corden, in a recent Xbox Two podcast, 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 realistic.
Corden indicated the game's development is further along than publicly perceived, though he offered no specifics. This news may disappoint fans, but it's a more positive timeline than previous speculation pointing to a 2027 release.
June's trailer highlighted intense gun battles against zombies and Mad Max-style vehicular combat in a post-apocalyptic setting. The narrative will unfold years after the apocalypse, focusing on human survivors establishing and defending settlements against the undead.
State of Decay 3 is slated for PC and Xbox Series X|S consoles, a significant time after its predecessor's 2018 release.
