Undead Labs are now fully focusing on State of Decay 3, after releasing nearly forty updates for State of Decay 2, which will receive one last content drop later this year.

Xbox studio Undead Labs are officially moving to State of Decay 3 and will end the post-launch content updates for the long-running predecessor State of Decay 2. 

The studio announced that the game will receive one last update later this year with fixes for some longstanding issues and new quality of life features among other things.

Additionally, the devs will permanently unlock seasonal or otherwise previously-gated content, such as Winter outfits and the WizardVan, so everyone can get their hands on these cosmetics.

Here's the message from Undead Labs:

Since 2018, we've had the honor and privilege of supporting State of Decay 2 with nearly forty updates and expansions. New modes, maps, difficulties, stories, characters, weapons, cosmetics, bounties, vehicles, events, traits and more -- we've poured our hearts into making the experience the best it can be, spurred on by your belief in us.

Every update addressed your Wishlist requests, fixed bugs, and brought quality-of-life improvements. We love making the game you love to play. We know you love this world we've created and the amazing community you've helped build. 

While you've enjoyed State ofDecay 2 for many years, you may have heard that we are also hard at work on the next evolution of the franchise! Our ambition is to make the greatest zombie survival sim in the franchise and to do so, we'll be shifting our focus and resources to making the upcoming third instalment, State of Decay 3.

You can expect a final content update for the State of Decay 2 cominglater this year. This final update, Update 38, aims to fix some longstanding issues, implement additional quality-of-life improvements, and permanently unlock seasonal or otherwise previously-gated content, such as Winter outfits and the WizardVan.

All in all, it's certainly great to see that Undead Labs are finally moving onto State of Decay 3, which is one of the most anticipated titles from the Xbox pipeline. 

We doubt any State of Decay fan will be disappointed with the news as five years of support is certainly a long time that allowed them to have plenty of fun but we guess it's time to move towards a true next-gen zombie survival MMO.
