It's been a while since we've heard anything official on State of Decay 3, hasn't it? The open world zombie-slaying sequel was unveiled in 2020, before basically going into hiding ever since. Well, a new LinkedIn update from an ex-Undead Labs developer could hint at why things are progressing slower than we all expected.
According to game developer Daniel Floyd — who's now moved on to work at Blackbird Interactive — the team at Undead Labs has multiple "not-yet-released projects" going on behind the scenes.
Now, it's pretty safe to assume one of these projects is State of Decay 3 because that title wasn't named in any fashion, but as for the other project, we have no idea! It could be a support arrangement or something of that ilk - or maybe Undead Labs has taken on another full game at this point - who knows!
All we do know is that anything Undead Labs develops itself will be Xbox exclusive. Although the team was only an Xbox partner studio when it released the first two State of Decay titles, it's been fully-owned by Microsoft since the acquisition back in 2018. Here's hoping we hear something about any of these Undead Labs projects sooner rather than later.
