As ‘State Of Decay’ Turns 10, I’m Super Excited To See More Of What’s Next
I must admit, I didn’t really get around to much State of Decay 2. It launched at a busy time when all I could think about was Sony’s God of War reboot, and I just never came back to it with late 2018 also delivering a few bangers such as Forza Horizon 4 and of course, Red Dead Redemption 2. It probably didn’t help that while SoD2 appeared to be shaping up pretty well, it very much looked like more State of Decay that wasn’t doing anything particularly new aside from the addition of co-op.
And that brings me onto State of Decay 3, which I’m very excited for. Revealed way back in 2020 (yes, three years ago!), we haven’t seen much on the upcoming sequel yet – in fact, we’ve seen nothing at all really. But, the promise of a more fleshed out, AAA version of that 2013 Xbox Live Arcade game I enjoyed so much is something I’m well up for.
It seems I’m not the only one either. Last year, Xbox boss Phil Spencer mentioned that State of Decay 3 is one of the games he’s most excited for in Xbox’s upcoming lineup. I’m not sure I’d go that far personally, but for reasons similar to what Phil expressed, I do think it’s going to be one to watch from Xbox Game Studios.
