State of Decay 3 Release Date Pushed to 2026

Gaming insider Jez Corden, on a recent episode of the Xbox Two podcast, hinted at a later-than-expected release for State of Decay 3, projecting a 2026 launch.

Initially slated for a 2025 release by Undead Labs, the zombie survival game's timeline has apparently shifted. Corden suggests an early 2026 launch window. While he notes significant progress in development, further details remain undisclosed.

This news may disappoint fans, although previous speculation pointed to a 2027 release, making a 2026 launch comparatively positive.

June's trailer offered a glimpse into the game's Mad Max-esque post-apocalyptic setting, featuring intense gun battles against hordes of undead and showcasing vehicular combat.

The narrative will unfold years after the initial apocalypse, focusing on human survivors establishing and defending fortified settlements against relentless zombie attacks.

State of Decay 3 is in development for PC and Xbox Series consoles, a significant time after its predecessor's 2018 launch.
