State of Decay 3 Targets 2027 Launch After Fresh Funding Boost
Undead Labs has quietly moved State of Decay 3 back into the spotlight. A new report indicates the long-awaited sequel is now targeting a 2027 release window, with the studio securing additional financial backing that upgrades the sequel’s scope to a full-blown, flagship production.
Originally unveiled early in the Xbox Series era, State of Decay 3 went radio-silent for years—fueling speculation about its status. According to coverage from True-Gaming, industry commentator Jez Corden says his sources point to a 2027 timeline and confirm that the project is being treated internally as a major, big-budget title rather than a modest follow-up.
For fans, that shift matters. Extra resources typically translate to larger maps, deeper systems, and longer post-launch support—the kind of investment that can redefine a survival-horror sandbox. It also suggests Microsoft and Undead Labs want State of Decay 3 to stand alongside Xbox’s marquee releases when it finally arrives.
Nothing is set in stone until official dates appear, but after years of silence, the latest signals are clear: State of Decay 3 is alive, funded, and aiming big for 2027. Keep an eye on future showcases for confirmation of platforms, gameplay details, and a firmer launch plan.
