State of Decay 3 Returns with a 2027 Release Year After Long Hiatus

Undead Labs has resurfaced at the Xbox Showcase with an atmospheric trailer for State of Decay 3. The preview was fittingly underscored by the dark tones of the song ‘Bela Lugosi’s Dead’.

Years after the apocalypse has begun, players will once again establish their own bases in a world ravaged by a blood plague, scavenge for resources, and battle relentless zombie hordes together with friends in co-op mode.

However, a bit of patience is required before you can dive into this brutal survival struggle, as the release is currently slated for 2027. The survival game will be available for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S, and will be included in Game Pass from day one.
