State of Decay 2 gets one final ‘major content update’, as team fully moves to State of Decay 3

"All our focus and resources to moving to development of the upcoming third instalment, State of Decay 3"

In a detailed blog post from the team at Undead Labs on Steam, long supported State of Decay 2 has received what the team say is “our final update for State of Decay 2“, as they move “all our focus and resources to development of the upcoming third instalment, State of Decay 3.”

In this update we are addressing long-standing issues, introducing various Quality of Life improvements, and permanently unlocking previously gated or seasonal content, such as the Wizard Van and Winter outfits.

Undead Labs have done an incredible job with post launch support for State of Decay 2, and update 38 is no slouch, featuring a whole host of quality of life improvements to the game, from community inventories for individual survivors to water resistance for vehicles.

There’s also a number of bug fixes and game adjustments across UI, missions, gameplay and more. You can read the full detailed patch notes here.

The team now moves to State of Decay 3, being developed in Unreal Engine 5 and looking a damn sight prettier than it’s predecessor. It got a brand new trailer back in June during the Xbox Game Showcase, and we can’t wait for it to arrive.

Appearing on the XboxEra Podcast back on Episode 100, Head of Microsoft Gaming, Phil Spencer said that he was “incredibly excited about some of the advancements” Undead Labs are making as they work on State of Decay 3.

You can play State of Decay 2 right now on Xbox Game Pass.
