Content overview: “Undead Labs Addresses Xbox Split and State of Decay 3 Changes After Layoffs”. Undead Labs, the Seattle-based studio behind the State of Decay franchise, has publicly addressed its recent split from Xbox and the impact of layoffs on State of Decay 3. The studio, which regained independence last month, acknowledged that it 'has got to make some changes' to the upcoming zombie survival sequel due to workforce reductions.

State of Decay 3 was first announced in 2020 and has been eagerly awaited by fans of the open-world survival series. The full version stays on the original page, which this listing opens directly.
