It's been a while since we've heard anything about State of Decay 3, but if you were wondering how this upcoming Xbox Series X|S release is going - it seems the project is still chugging along.
As highlighted by @klobrille, Undead Labs recently recruited an employee from the Saint Row 5 (reboot) team Volition, as a Principle Technical Artist. Mitri Van served as a technical art director on the latest Saints Row game, and also worked on cinematics, asset integration, and quick-time events between 2017 and 2021.
As noted, this latest recruitment bumps the employee count at Undead Labs to around 100+. Back in July, it was also discovered how the developer may potentially be using Unreal Engine 5 for State of Decay 3. As for the latest Saints Row game, it was recently delayed until August next year.
Whenever State of Decay 3 does arrive, it will be made available on Xbox Game Pass. Are you looking forward to this next chapter in the series? Have you played any of the previous entries? Leave a comment down below.

That's my most anticipated new Xbox game. I've put over 200 hours on SoD 2.
When did they announce Saints Row 5? Is an actual Saints Row game coming then?
@MyThoughts31 It's a reboot not actually called Saints Row 5 (it's just Saints Row). It was announced back in August I believe.
Really enjoyed state of decay 2 so looking forward to number 3 and probably my most anticipated xbox game, and even more so that it seems to be set in a snowy region this time
Well they might as well move on to a different team, seems like Volition has really gone downhill.
I don't generally get amped for anything pre release but I know if 3 is anything like 2 its going to suck me in to WAY more hours than I promised I would devote to it...cant wait to see what this series evolves into, I think it has potential as a 'sleeper' hit for Xbox
@KilloWertz yeh that crap isn't Saints Row. I was thinking an actual SR game might have been announced.
@MyThoughts31 Fair enough. I'm not interested in it either really. If it somehow turns out to be good, I may get it if it's cheap, but I'll never consider it a Saints Row game regardless.
@KilloWertz no wonder they've delayed it indefinitely, the first looking gameplay trailer has got more dislikes on it that virtually any trailer this year. It was abysmal. Looked like a generic third person shooter. No saints row banter which is what makes the games. Also how can you NOT have Gat and Kinkie!
